The document summarizes a study on the effects of open field and open shade conditions on the growth and phytochemical constituents of Amaranthus cruentus. Plants grown under open field conditions exhibited significantly higher growth in terms of plant height, leaf number, fresh weight, dry weight and leaf area compared to those grown under open shade. Additionally, plants grown in open field conditions had significantly higher levels of total flavonoids, total tannins, total antioxidant capacity and DPPH radical scavenging activity. However, plants grown in open shade had higher total phenol content. Overall, the results indicate that Amaranthus cruentus grows better and has higher phytochemical and antioxidant capabilities when grown under open field
