introduction bean (vicia faba l.) has the great old history of crop cultivation to date would be pushed back to a fairly long day plant, resistant to frost and cool season crop and up to 5 degrees celsius tolerated. bean prefers wet and cold conditions. excessive heat may cause fetal growth problems, loss and reduce the number of seeds per pod bean flowers to the growth of plant and fruit set o...

assessment of agricultural drought risk at critical times before and during the growing season can provide sufficient time to policy makers and farmers to implement appropriate strategies to reduce the potential of risk. the purpose followed in the present study is to develop a statistical model to estimate the quality of agricultural drought risk for rainfed barley crop (prior to planting and ...

the experiment was carried out to study the impact of chilling and night break on the flowering of ornamental plants in their off-season period. larsenianthus careyanus (benth.) w.j. kress & mood is a wild potential ornamental ginger naturally growing in the evergreen forest of north eastern states of india was selected for the current study. the rhizomes were collected and stored at 15oc f...

Satellite-derived vegetation phenology has been recognized as a key indicator for detecting changes in the terrestrial biosphere in response to global climate change. However, multi-decadal changes and spatial variation of vegetation phenology over the Northern Hemisphere and their relationship to climate change have not yet been fully investigated. In this article, we investigated the spatial ...

Abstract Effects of water stress on root and leaf growth rates and their relationships with yield under normal and water stress conditions were examined at the Greenhouse and Research Field of Faculty of Agriculture, Kerman University, Iran, using seven maize cultivars including SC-404, SC-704, BC-666, TC-647, DC-370, Jeta and Kordona. During a period of 14 days, water stress at -0.4 MPa was ...
