In the Mediterranean zone, efforts to optimize combinations of supplemental irrigation (SI ), improved varieties, nitrogen (N ) and sowing dates aim to improve and stabilize cereal yields and maintain quality, especially for durum wheat. Thus, a 4 year field study (1992/1993 to 1995/1996) on a deep clay soil in northern Syria assessed the impact of SI (rain-fed, 1/3, 2/3 and full SI ) combined ...

The broomrape, Orobanche crenata Forsk (Orobanchaceae) is a serious annual parasitic weed that causes considerable losses in many major crops including faba bean (Vicia L.). In Egypt: due to O. crenata parasitism may reach 40 100%. Despite using several methods control crenata, success has not been achieved. impact of different tactics on crenata is well understood....

in order to evaluate the delay cropping on yield and yield component of two canola cultivars and selecting the best genotype and row spacing, an experiment was conducted at three years (2007, 2008 and 2009) in gorgan research station. this experiment was arranged in spilt-factorial based on randomized complete block design with four sowing dates (28 oct., 12 and 28 nov. and 12 dec.) as main plo...

Agronomic research suggests Australian farmers may increase wheat yields by 13 to 47% and reduce risk of crop failures by sowing crops earlier than is currently practiced. This study investigated the potential to use remote sensing to assist in evaluating changes in farmer sowing date practices in response to research recommendations, using study paddocks in the southern Australian cropping reg...

Delay of sowing date in subtropical environments with long growing seasons can modify the yield response corn hybrids to nitrogen (N) fertilization. This study evaluated effects time, and N top-dress rate on hybrids’ N-use efficiency different cycles. Two field experiments were carried out environment southern Brazil. The following factors investigated: (AG9025, super early cycle P30F53, cycle)...

The objective of this study was to characterize the development chia plants sown at different dates, and determine relation between duration cycle final number leaves leaf appearance rate on main stem. A field experiment conducted in agricultural year 2016/2017 five sowing dates (09/22/16, 10/28/16, 01/03/17, 02/08/17 03/24/17) edaphoclimatic conditions central region RS, Brazil. randomized blo...

Crop depends on its canopy to intercept solar radiation to drive both assimilation and water, nutrient absorption for its growth. Field experiments, involving three sowing time and three sowing rate, were conducted at Luancheng Station to investigate the effects of canopy size and development on crop growth and radiation use efficiency (RUE) of winter wheat during 2009/2010 and 2010/2011 gr...

The field research was carried out at the Látókép AGTC KIT research area of the University of Debrecen in EasternHungary, on the area of the aeolain loess of the Hajdúság. We examined the effects of the sowing time on the phytopathogenic characteristics and yield production by applying various fertilizer treatments on two different sunflower genotypes (NK Ferti, PR64H42) in 2012 and 2013. We ap...

to study the effect of planting date, plant density and planting pattern on yield of corn (zea mays l) var. ksc 647 split plot factorial experiment in a randomized complete block design with four replications at bayranshahr lorestan province in crop year 2015 was conducted. factors examined included planting date in three levels: (25 may, 12 june and 29 june), density at three levels (60, 75 an...

the effects of planting date and single irrigation (si) allocation scenarios on increasing and stability of yield were investigated to determine the total water productivity and economical water productivity (wpe), for rainfed wheat at dryland agricultural research institute in maragheh, iran, during 2000-2004. the treatments included three sowing dates (early, normal and late), four allocation...
