The environmental, social and economical reasons indicate that the conventional agriculture constitute a continuous pressure contributing to the progressive worsening of environmental conditions, especially by an increasing apply high level of inputs. In this matter, the increasing use of saline irrigation water is one of the main factors resulting in salt accumulation in the plant rhizosp...

Present research was conducted with the aim of determination of significant effect of soil properties on natural regeneration of Haloxylon aphyllum and correlation coefficient and linear relation between soil variables and natural regeneration of Haloxylon aphyllum. Firstly, geomorphologic units were prepared in the areas under cultivation of Haloxylon aphyllum in Ardestan. Two cultivated lands...

The rehabilitation of sandy desertified land in various dryland ecosystems by different management practices has a great potential to increase aggregate stability and improve soil quality. However, plants in general may have a different ability to sustain soil. The objective was to determine the effects of reclamation practices including Haloxylon ammodendron and Atriplex canescens plantation o...

The effect of poultry waste application on physicochemical and biological properties of sandy clay loam soil was investigated on a 7m X 7m plot of land. Plot was divided into four portions and 7.5kg each of broiler, cockerel and layers waste was applied to plot A, B, and C in slurry form while plot D was used as control(no application) for eight weeks with two weeks interval. After the fourth a...

poplar trees are becoming extremely important as fast growing species due to the increasing need for wood and decreasing productivity of some lands in iran. the present study aimed to find the effect of canopy of poplar clones as one of the most important effective factors on soil properties compared to the distances inter-row trees. five poplar clones and species included: populus euramericana...

This study aims to assess the effect of grazing intensity on vegetation structure, soil nutrient concentrations and soil physical properties. The study was carried out in steppe rangelands of Saveh, Markazi province, Iran. Four sites with four grazing intensities including very high, high, moderate and non-grazed with the same ecological conditions were selected. To study various vegetation and...
