Temperature and CO2 are two important parameters related to climate change, which affect crop yield. In this study, an attempt has been made to assess the impact of these two factors on the productivity of the four major cereal food crops (wheat, rice, maize and pearl millet) taking New Delhi as study area. This study also aims at identifying the most sensitive growth phase of these crops to th...

Soil compaction has become a widespread problem in the world and is one of the factors involved in land degradation and declining crop yields, especially in the arid and semi-arid agriculture. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of subsoil compaction on morphological, physiological and agronomic aspects of wheat .The research was carried out in the experimental farms of Anb...

in order to investigate the possibility of planting grass pea and common vetch crops after harvesting wheat and to evaluate the effects of  green manure of these crops on yield of potato-wheat in croprotation cycle, this research was carried out using a randomized complete block design with four replications during 2006-2010 at khair-abad research station, zanjan, iran. the treatments were eith...

Soil compaction has been recognised as the greatest problem in terms of damage to Australia's soil resource. Compaction by tractor and harvester tyres, related to traf®cking of wet soil, is one source of the problem. In this paper an array of soil properties was measured before and immediately after the application of a known compaction force to a wet Vertisol. A local grain harvester was used ...

Choosing genotypes with a high capacity for taking up nitrogen (N) from the soil and the ability to efficiently compete with weeds for this nutrient is essential to increasing the sustainability of cropping systems that are less dependent on auxiliary inputs. This research aimed to verify whether differences exist in N uptake and N fertilizer recovery capacity among wheat genotypes and, if so, ...

proper use of water resources in arid and semi-arid regions is important and vital. this study was conducted to evaluate the effect of irrigation scheduling by various methods on crop yield and water use efficiency (wue) by wheat, and determining suitable irrigation-scheduling method for irrigation of wheat in saeedabad, tabriz. a field experiment was conducted with 10 irrigation treatments (i1...

Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 62(5): 945–952. Development of new bread wheat cultivars needs effi cient tools to monitor trait association in a breeding program. This investigation was aimed to charact...

the effect of tillage (conventional and zero tillage), crop establishment (raised-bed and flat-bed), and weed management practices (herbicide alone and integrated approach) was studied on productivity, profitability, nutrient uptake and physico-chemical properties of soil in soybean–wheat cropping system, at new delhi during 2010–2012. sixteen treatment combinations consisting of four tillage a...

the effect of perlite different amounts on grain yield and water use efficiency in winter wheat (cultivar of zarrin) in ghorveh (kermanshah province), was studied in 2007-2008. field experiment using completely randomized block design with seven treatments (p0, p1, p2, p3, p4, p5 and p6) including: zero (reference), 75, 150, 300, 600, 1200 and 2400 kg.ha-1 with four replicates was conducted. ir...
