In a 3-year experiment (2002-2004), five N rates (0, 60, 120, 180, 240 kg N ha-1) were applied to sugar beets arranged in a Randomized Complete Block design with six replications. Experimentation took place under the semi-arid, irrigated conditions of central Greece. The aim of this work was to study the late season response of sugar beet crop to N fertilization as assessed by non-destructive m...

in order to evaluation the effects of different soil fertility systems on chickpea seed quality, field experiments were carried out in sanandaj agriculture research station of iran in 2007 and 2008 growing seasons. experimental units were arranged in split-split plots based on randomized complete blocks with three replications. green manure levels considered main plots, base fertilizer compound...

introduction crop productivity is highly constrained by water and nitrogen limitations in many areas of the world (kalra et al., 2007). therefore, there is a need to investigate more on nitrogen and water management to achieve higher production as well as quality. irrigated sugar beet in the cropping systems of khorasan province in northeastern of iran accounts for about 34% of the land area un...

in drought stress condition, it is important to estimate the n and k requirement of sugar beet. a drought-tolerant sugar beet genotype, bp karaj, was evaluated in split plot factorial design based on a randomized complete block design with four replications at motahari research station, karaj, iran for three years. main plots were allocated to irrigation treatments including normal irrigation (...

in order to evaluate some agronomical management on weed control in sugar beet this experiment was conducted at safi-abad agr.res.center, dezful in 2002 and 2004. tow planting dates, september 16 and october 12 and five cultivator applications, one and two time application at 4-6 and 6-8 leaf stages, respectively and once plus hand hoeing, weedy and weed free checks arranged in split plot desig...

sustainable agriculture for producing food is not possible without optimal use of water resources. because of the limitation of water resources, deficit irrigation would be essential to increase water productivity. in order to evaluate the effects of deficit irrigation on quality and quantity of sugar beet, an experiment was carried out in a farm in miandoab agricultural research station for 2 ...

it is well known that sugar beet is sensitive to salinity stress at the germination stage. three separate experiments were conducted to study the effects of salinity on seed germination, plant establishment, and yield of sugar beet genotypes for screening purposes. these included: (a) a laboratory study using four water salinity levels (with ec values < 0.1 as the control, 16, 20, and 24 ds m-1...
