an experiment was conducted to assess the influences of different growth promoters on performance, carcass characteristic and intestinal microflora of broiler. day-old broiler chicks from arian strain (384) were used in the completely randomized experimental design during 7-42 days of age. eight rations were formulated as a follow 1: control (without growth promoters); 2-control + formic acid (...

Objective: In this study investigated effects of different amounts of pelleted manure with urea and micro elements on yield and seed quality of medicinal plants, pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo var. styriaca). Methods: The animal manure and urea as pellet with four levels (150 Kg urea, 50 Kg urea + 3.5 ton animal manure, 100 (Kg) urea+ 1.5 ton animal manure and 150 (Kg) urea+1.5 ton animal man...

We estimate the profitability of producing biochar from crop residue (corn stover) for two scenarios. The first employs slow pyrolysis to generate biochar and pyrolysis gas and has the advantage of high yields of char (as much as 40 wt-%) but the disadvantage of producing a relatively low-value energy product (pyrolysis gas of modest heating value). The second scenario employs fast pyrolysis to...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The study explored the capability of the geographic information system interface for the water erosion prediction project, a process-based model, to predict and visualize the specific location of soil erosion and sediment yield from the agricultural watershed of Taganibong. METHODS: The method involved the preparation of the fou...

In an on-going effort of the FoSHoL project of ActionAid Bangladesh to evaluate the farmers’ perception and effect of system of rice intensification on the yield, 85 farm families of Tala, Satkhira Sadar, Biswamvampur, Noakhali, Ulipur and Koira Upazilla of Satkhira, Sunamganj, Noakhali, Kurigram and Khulna districts conducted the study in their own lands in a participatory action research appr...

the high yield depends on high dry matter production per unit area. azotobacter bio-fertilizer experiment to investigate the effect on the index, total dry matter accumulation and pishtaz and chamran wheat cultivars in 2005 was conducted in the faculty of agriculture, lorestan university. experiment, a split-plot randomized complete blocks design with four replicates were tested. treatments con...
