in order to study the effects of rate and application time of nitrogen on grain yield of rainfed wheat, water use efficiency of rain (wue), nitrogen agronomic efficiency (nae) and soil moisture depletion (smd), one experimental farm was carried out in kurdistan province during 2012-2014. tratments were five rates of nitrogen (n0, n30, n60, n90 and n120) kg.ha-1 as urea with three application ti...

Rainfed agriculture occupies 68% of India’s cultivated area and supports 40% of the human and 60% of the livestock population. It produces 445 of the food requirement, thus has and will continue to play a critical role in India’s food security. However, aberrant behaviour of monsoon rainfall, eroded and degraded soils with multiple nutrient and water deficiencies, declining ground water table a...

this study investigated the effect of sowing date and limited water allocation management for single irrigation on the grain yield of rainfed barley. the experiment was a split-split plot arranged in a randomized complete block design with three replications from 2004 to 2006 at the main station of the dryland agricultural research institute at maragheh. the treatments comprised three sowing da...

Agricultural drought often refers to water deficit in soil caused by a shortage of precipitation during specific period crop growing season, thus leading final production failure. However, content planting may be related the yield crop. Therefore, at could have great impact on determining whether agricultural occurs growth and development. In current study, we used 0–50 cm depth, spring wheat (...
