This study was conducted in Abu-Khaseb –basra Province season 2010 to the effect of foliar fertilization by iron that spray chelated two concentrations (20 and 40 ppm) addition control treatment

Kiwifruit requires a high quantity of nutrients that must be supplied through fertilization to obtain an optimum yield on a sustainable basis. This research was conducted to evaluate different fertilization methods including broadcast application (as control), deep placement of the fertilizer and fertigation, alone or in combination with foliar application and their effects on the yield, leaf m...

Low volume aerial phosphite applications has been used in recent years at rates of up to 24 kg ha" to protect native plant species and communities threatened by Phytophthora cinnamomi while the recommended rate for spray to run-off phosphite application is 5 g L·'. Phosphite uptake and in planta phosphite concentrations in native plant species may vary considerably between species and with appl...

In order to study effect of salicylic acid and calcium foliar application on growth, yield and yield components of strawberry plants as a factorial in completely randomized experimental design with four replications. This factors included of salicylic acid in 3 levels (0.25, 0.5 and 0.75 mM) and calcium in 2 levels (2.5 and 5 mM) spray on strawberry. Results showed that salicylic acid (0.25 mM)...

A study was undertaken to evaluate effectiveness of foliar spray with 33 plant extracts against leaf spot (Tikka) of groundnut caused by Cercospora arachidicola and Cercosporidium personatum. Bavistin and BAU-Biofungicide were included in the experiment as checks and spray of plain water represented control. Almost all treatments gave considerable reduction in disease incidence and increase in ...

Twelve treatments viz. T1: control (water spray); T2: FeSO4 basal @ 25 kg ha-1; T3: Foliar spray citric acid 0.1% 45 75 day...

Thyme is a valuable plant used in medicine, perfumery and food industry. Mineral deficiencies often limit the growth of plants. Nitrogen deficiency in agricultural soils is a problem throughout the world. The present study evaluated effects of applying Fe and Zn in absorption of some important nutrients of Thymus vulgaris...

Action threshold-based insecticide spray regimens were evaluated for control of tomato fruitworm (Helicoverpa zea [Boddie]) in freshmarket tomatoes in eastern Virginia in 1998 and 1999. The initial foliar-applied insecticide spray was made based on the presence of X1 H. zea egg on either X2%, X10% or X20% of plants sampled, while subsequent sprays were made on either a weekly basis or only if X...
