In connection with a study at the Fixed Nitrogen Research Laboratory on the possible transformation products of cyanamid, there was obtained a number of materials and mixtures concerning which there is either very little known, or concerning which there is still some doubt as to their fertilizing value. Thus, in the preparation of urephos, a product was obtained in which approximately 55 per ce...

Nutrient legacies in anthropogenic landscapes, accumulated over decades of fertilizer application, lead to time lags between implementation of conservation measures and improvements in water quality. Quantification of such time lags has remained difficult, however, due to an incomplete understanding of controls on nutrient depletion trajectories after changes in land-use or management practices...

The effects of ash and commercial fertilizers on the foliar nutrient concentrations and stand growth of Scots pine were studied in four fi eld experiments established on former cultivated peat soils. The aims were to compare ash types (wood, peat and coal ash), study the effects of ash treatment (pelletization), compare ash fertilization with commercial fertilizers, and to study the interaction...

kochia scoparia is a salt resistant plant that can be used in producing forage in the areas with salt water and soil resources. one of the problems which produce the forage plants in these areas decreases the function and quality of the forage in irrigation condition with salt water. therefore, using the chemical fertilizers can be considered as a useful solution. this study was conducted to ev...

considered is an important objectives of sustainable agriculture,environmental protection and achieving inclusive development.therefore it seems essential method that can reduce the excessive consumption of chemical fertilizers.the purpose of this study was to assess the impact of plant growth promoting microorganisms and effect of combination nutrition systems,chemical and bacterial on stages ...

Field experiments were conducted during 2002-2003 on clay loam, sandy loam and red loam soil at Sivapuri, Chidambaram, Tamil Nadu, to evaluate the efficacy of vermicompost on the physico-chemical and biological characteristics of the soils and on the yield and nutrient content of blackgram Vigna mungo, in comparison to inorganic fertilizers nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium. Vermicompost had inc...
