to study the effects of biofertilizers on physiological and morphological characteristics, as well on essential oil content in dragonhead (dracocephalum moldavica), an experiment was conducted at tarbiat modares university in 2009. the studied factors were: vermicompost (0, 15, 30% v/pot), azotobacter (inoculated and non-inoculated), and phosphatic biofertilizer (inoculated and non-inoculated)....

background: excessive use of antibiotic growth promoters leaded in the creation of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and by consuming animal products, humans are at risk of receiving their residual. therefore, instead of using antibiotics as growth promoters, some alternatives must be identified and introduced to animal breeders. objectives: the purpose of this research was to study the effect of a...

the effects of a multi enzyme were evaluated on performance and nutrient digestibility in african domesticated ostrich at 14 months ages. there were three treatments as; common diet (1), common diet plus multi enzyme (0.350 gkg -1) (2) and common diet plus multi enzyme (0.700 gkg -1) (3). 18 ostrich were used in this experiment (6 birds per treatment). there was significant effect of enzyme sup...

a significant portion of manganese (mn) chemical fertilizers applied to calcareous soils is not absorbed by the first crop and may, therefore, affect the growth as well as chemical composition of the subsequent crops, this being called the residual effect of mn, soil tests may be employed to predict such effects. the present experiment was conducted to study the residual effects of manganese su...

determining the best mixture of sorghum and fenugreek intercropping defines the best forage quality in medicinal forage production. this project was conducted to evaluate the effect of biological, chemical and integrated fertilizing systems on forage quantity and quality in sorghum and fenugreek intercropping. the experimental treatments were arranged as split plots based on randomized block de...

in order to examine the effects of biological and chemical fertilizers with the use of salicylic acid on the agronomic characteristics of corn as a factorial experiment in randomized complete block design with three replications at the agricultural research station in 2011 was boroujerd. factors examined included three levels of phosphorus fertilizer (0, 100 and 150 kg ha), two levels of biolog...

BACKGROUND Environmental as well as cultivation factors may greatly influence the chemical composition of plants. The main factors affecting the chemical composition of foodstuff are level and type of fertilizer (conventional and organic cultivation systems), location or soil type, and year of harvest. Organic foods are defined as products that are produced under controlled cultivation conditio...
