The use of efficient rates of nitrogen (N) fertilizer application is important with regard to increasing crop productivity and maintaining environmental sustainability. Rice-oilseed rape rotations are a mainstay of the economy and food security of China. Therefore, a field experiment was carried out during 2011-2013 in Honghu to identify the most appropriate N application rates for enhancing cr...

the objective of this experiment was to determine the effects of different levels of nitrogen (n) and salinity on biochemical mechanisms of two wheat genotypes. a field experiment was carried out in a three replicate rcbd split factorial experiment in salinity station of college of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran in 2007-2008 and 2008-2009. three levels of salt stress (1.3, 5,...

• The likely consequences of future high levels of atmospheric CO 2 concentration on wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) grain nutritional and baking quality were determined. • Two free-air CO 2 enrichment (FACE; 550 mmol mol − 1 ) experiments were conducted at ample (Wet) and limiting (Dry) levels of irrigation, and a further two experiments at ample (High-N) and limiting (Low-N) nitrogen concentrat...

In the present study, some nutritional imbalances, specific ion toxicity and yield-ion concentration relationships in maize under water, nitrogen (N) and salinity stresses were assessed. Effect of different levels of irrigation water (I1=1.0ETc+0.25ETc as leaching, I2 =0.75I1 and I3 =0.5I1) as main plot, salinity of irrigation water (S1=0.6, S2= 2.0 and S3=4.0 dS m-1) as sub-plot and N fertiliz...

In order to study the effects of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) on the yield, the appearance eligibility ratio and the contents of total glucosinolates and glucoraphanin of cauliflower, the 311-A optimization regression design was used to conduct field experiments of N, P, K fertilizer treatments using winter cauliflower variety ‘‘HB16’’. The models of the balanced application f...

biofertilizers are natural inputs that can be applied as complement or substituent of chemical fertilizers in sustainable agriculture. effects of n and p bio- and chemical fertilizers on growth indices of maize (zea mays l.) was studied on 2008 in shushtar, iran, based an as a factorial experiment based on completely randomized block design with three replications. treatments consisted four lev...

Wet and dry anaerobic fermentation processes are operated for biogas production from organic matter, resulting in wet and dry digestates as by-products, respectively. The application of these digestates to soil as fertilizer has increased in recent years. Therefore, we herein compared the effects of applying wet digestates (pH 8.2, C/N ratio 4.5), dry digestates (pH 8.8, C/N ratio 23.4), and a ...

to find the effects of spring foliar application of volck® mineral oil and its combination with fertilizer on the physiological, yield and quality characteristics of pistachio fruit, this research was done in the form of a randomized complete block design (rcbd) of 12 treatments and 3 replications on ohadi pistachio cultivar in chatrud of kerman in 2006 and 2007 for a duration of two years. the...
