When fish are recovered from ponds, the effluent is often drained, presenting both an environmental challenge and an agricultural opportunity. The effects of irrigation with pond effluent and its interaction with applied fertilizer were assessed in a field experiment using French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) and kale (Brassica oleracea) over two growing seasons near Sagana, Kenya. Fresh and dry ma...

tuberose (polianthes tuberosa l.) is one of the most important cut flowers in tropical and subtropical areas. this flower has forth order in cut flower and second order in bulbous plants production in iran. plant spacing and nitrogen necessity are the most important factors for tuberose quality and quantity. in this study, field experiment carried out as factorial design in randomized complete ...

introduction lentil is one of the major legume with protein content about 28% where is cultivated in different regions of iran, especially in arid and semi-arid regions with low or variable rainfall. in these regions abiotic stresses such as heat of the around the end of growing season, drought stress in early and late within the season and salt stress alone or together have a large negative im...

The objective of this work was to study the effects of tillage and liquid manure applications on some physical and chemical properties as well as on the carbon and nitrogen mineralization potential of a meadow soil. Our results indicated that tillage and manure applications had no effect on the concentration of Cu, Mn, total N and organic C in 0-15 cm layer of soil after 15 years of treatment. ...

The field experiment was conducted at central research farm Soil Science and Agricultural Chemistry, SHUATS Prayagraj, (U.P.) on sandy loam soil to see response of Integrated nutrient management properties green gram (Vigna radiata L.) var. Samrat during Zaid season 2022. There are nine treatment combinations were comprised in randomized block design with three replications. samples taken two d...

Alternative forages can be used to provide valuable home-grown feed for ruminant livestock. Utilising these different forages could affect the manure value and the implications of incorporating these forages into farming systems, needs to be better understood. An experiment tested the hypothesis that applying slurries from ruminants, fed ensiled red clover (Trifolium pratense), lucerne (Medicag...

In order to determine the response of some tropical grass species to low light situations such as under plantation crops, seasonal cloud cover, etc., six tropical forage grasses were evaluated over a 20 month period on an Oxic Haplustoll in Hawaii (100 m above sea level) under four light regimes (100, 70, 45, and 27/, daylight using polypropylene netting) in the field. The forage grasses evalua...
