This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of soil application of humic acid on growth and physiological indices of pistachio seedlings ("Badami Zarand" rootstock) under drought stress. This experiment was arranged as a completely randomized design with three replications in greenhouse conditions. The experimental treatments consisted of humic acid (0, 30 and 60 gr in 4 kg-1 s...

controlled drainage is one of the strategies to reduce negative environmental effects in conventional drainage systems. this study examines the effect of controlled drainage on quality and quantity of drainage water, specifically amounts of salt and nitrate in drainage water, and nitrate uptake by maize (sc 704) with sandy loam soil texture in karaj. the experiment was performed as a randomized...

introduction: water scarcity is one of the major problems for crop production. using drip irrigation as an effective method in the efficient use of water is expanding in arid and semi-arid regions. one of the problems in under pressure irrigation during use of saline, unconventional and waste is emitters clogging. there are several ways to prevent particle deposits in pipes and clogging of emit...

limitations of water and nitrogen in soil usually restrict plant growth. the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of different amounts of supplemental irrigation at different growth stages and application of different rates of nitrogen fertilizer on grain yield and water productivity of wheat cultivars. a field experiment was conducted in the agricultural research station of shah...

in order to study of deficit irrigation levels on wheat grain yield cultivars based on water productivity indices, an experiment was conducted in a split plot arrangement in randomized complete block design at the field of agricultural and natural resources center of isfahan (kabutarabad research station). three levels of irrigations: 60% of full irrigation (f1) and 80% full irrigation (f2) and...

Soil water, salinity and nitrogen content are three major factors affecting crop production in arid and semi-arid areas. This study was performed in two years of 2009 and 2010 in a semi-arid area in order to investigate the effects of irrigation water quantity (as main plot), quality (saline water, as sub-plot), nitrogen fertilizer (as sub-sub plot) and their interactions on growth and yiel...

A 2-yr study was conducted in a citrus orchard (Citrus sinensis L. Osbeck cultivar Valencia) todetermine the inßuenceofplantwater stresson thepopulationdynamicsofglassy-winged sharpshooter,Homalodisca vitripennis (Germar). Experimental treatments included irrigation at 100% of the crop evapotranspiration rate (ETc) and continuous deÞcit-irrigation regimens at 80 and 60% ETc. Microclimate and pl...

in order to study of effects of deficit irrigation on morphological traits and growth indices variation of corn forage (sc. 704) in rasht region, an experiment based on randomized complete design with four treatments and three replication was conducted in 2007 growing season, at research farm of faculty of agriculture, university of guilan. experimental treatments consisted of: no-irrigation, 1...
