Profitability assessment has prime importance for every crop husbandry practice and cultural operation. For this purpose, two field experiment was carried out to investigate the response of spring planted sunflower hybrids to different irrigation levels/schedules and foliar application of abscisic acid. Two studies were done at the Agronomic Research Farm, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad,...

The effect of different pre-sowing seed treatments and sowing dates on germination and rootstock quality of ber was assessed to standardize a combination which could yield optimum germination and quality rootstock. Of the fourteen pre-sowing treatments, highest seed germination and best seedling growth was obtained in T10 x D2 (seed soaking in water for 48 hours followed by 6 days storage in mo...

Prairie hay meadows are important reservoirs of grassland biodiversity in the tallgrass prairie regions of the central United States and are the object of increasing attention for conservation and restoration. In addition, there is growing interest in the potential use of such low-input, high-diversity (LIHD) native grasslands for biofuel production. The uplands of eastern Kansas, USA, which pr...

The objects of research were forest plantations, passed through renovation rubles in the Arkhangelsk forestry region. Trial plots established spruce plantations (bilberry and sphagnum forest), on fresh haulage, apiary, old haulage after felling more than 30 years ago. Based results research, a model was built, with help which it is consistently assessed during course what happens to stand cutti...

shallot (allium altissimum regel.) is a medicinal, industrial and perennial plant that has underground tubers. it is one of the most important allium species in iran, which normally grows in semi-cold to very cold highlands. because of being a wild plant, shallot is encounter with water deficit during its growth season. therefore evaluation of water requirement of shallot is important. in order...

abstract persian shallot (moseer) belongs to alliaceae family, is a perennial medicinal and industrial edible alliums in iran. very little information is available about different aspects of this species particularly on its agronomical production. in order to determine optimum sowing date and plant density in persian shallot, an experiment was conducted as split plot based on complete randomize...

The unpredictability and large fluctuation of the climatic conditions in rainfed regions do affect spring wheat yield and grain quality. These variations offer the opportunity for the production of better quality wheat. The effect of variable years, locations and sowing managements on wheat grain yield and quality was studied through field experiments using three genotypes, three locations for ...

NEDKOV, N., 2007. Research on the Effect of Pre-sowing Treatment on Seed Germination of Hypericum perforatum L. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 13: 31-37 Trials were carried out for improvement of seed germination of St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum L.) based on studies of main sowing properties after treatments as follows: soaking, soaking and heating and combined seed stratification. Recommendatio...

Aspen produces large numbers of seeds, even though it mainly reproduces asexually with root suckers. The aim of this study was to find out how different moisture conditions affect emergence and survival of Populus tremula L. seedlings. This was studied with a sowing experiment (totally randomized factorial design). There were altogether 10 blocks, each containing 16 microsites and three treatme...

abstract nowruzak (salvia leriifolia) of lamiaceae family has a good capability for domestication in khorasan’s natural habitats. in order to investigate the effect of sowing design and depth in seedling emergence and permanence, a split plot experiment based on a randomized complete block design was performed with three replications. results indicated sowing design in all three parameters, sow...
