APSIM Nwheat is a crop system simulation model, consisting of modules that incorporate aspects of soil water, nitrogen (N), crop residues, and crop growth and development. The model was applied to simulate aboveand belowground growth, grain yield, water and N uptake, and soil water and soil N of wheat crops in the Netherlands. Model outputs were compared with detailed measurements of field expe...

the erosion in dryland caused decrease in yield and soil quality, especially in slope land with conventional tillage. to investigate effect of tillage and planting methods in slope land on erosion and yield of dryland wheat, an experiment was conducted in 2007 at kermanshah province. the statistical design for this research was strip split plots in rcb (randomized complete blocks) with three re...

this experiment was conducted to evaluate rate and duration of grain filling among old, modern and promising rice cultivars under different nitrogen levels in fields of  sari agricultural sciences and natural resources university, during 2008. two factors consisted of different urea fertilizer (0, 100 and 200 kg ha-1) as main plot and four promising lines (jelodar, partou, danesh and jahesh), 2...

‘Caviano’ is a black bean cultivar recommended for Santa Catarina, being highly adaptable to the main grain-producing regions of state (mean grain yield 2315 kg ha-1). Compared previously released cultivars, Caviano has larger root system and desirable characteristics mechanical harvesting.

Six cowpea genotypes (Danila, IT96D-772, IT90K-277-2, IT95K-1091-3, IT96D-740, IT96D-757) were intercropped with a local millet cultivar using four row arrangements (1:1, 1:2, 2:2 and 2:4 millet to cowpea rows) in a field experiment conducted at Minjibir near Kano in the Sudan savanna ecological zone of Nigeria during the 1999 and 2000 wet seasons. Cowpea genotypes and row arrangement had no ef...

Strip tillage with various crop covers in peanut (Arachis hypogaea, L.) production has not shown a clear yield advantage over conventional tillage, but has been found to reduce yield losses from some diseases. This study was conducted to determine pod yield and disease incidence between two tillage practices, five winter cover crops, three peanut cultivars, and three fungicide programs. Convent...

in order to increase grain yield, nitrogen use efficiency (nue) and nitrogen apparent recovery fraction (narf) in wheat (triticum aestivum l.), this experiment was carried out with 5 or 6 treatments and 3 or 4 replications in 14 locations at 22 different sites in iran during the 2004-05 growing season. the experiment was designed as a completely randomized block. the effect of n sources and tim...

in order to investigate of different salinity stress and plant densities effects on quantitative and qualitative forage and grain yields of kochia a randomized complete block design in factorial arrangement with three replications was used. a field study was conducted in 2011 cropping season in agriculture experiment satiation, college of agriculture, islamic azad university, arak branch treatm...
