in recent years, surplus usage of chemical fertilizers and inattention the importance organic matter to improve soil fertility, leading to increasing use of chemical fertilizer, environmental pollution and etc. in order to study the different fertilizer levels (organic, chemical and combined) on yield of grain corn (s.c.704) experiment was conducted at the research farm faculty of agriculture t...

Water shortage and nitrogen (N) deficiency are the key factors limiting agricultural production in arid and semi-arid regions, and increasing agricultural productivity under rain-fed conditions often requires N management strategies. A field experiment on winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was begun in 2004 to investigate effects of long-term N fertilization in the traditional pattern used for...

to study effect of fe and zn spraying on some characteristics of mungbean, an experiment was designed as factorial based on randomized complete block with three replications in urmia university, 2012. treatments were nutrition systems (organic, chemical, integrated and no nutrition) and micronutrients (fe, zinc, no foliar application and water spraying). the plant height, pod length, number of ...

in order to study the effects of nitrogen and drought stress on yield, yield components and seed quality of corn (hybrid single cross 704) a field experiment was conducted at agricultural research station in islamabad gharb in 2009. experiment design was split plots based on randomized complete block design with three replications. main plots included full irrigation requirement, 80 percent and...

Efficacy of three rates of aldicarb for control of Hoplolaimus columbus was evaluated on highly tolerant ('Foster'), moderately tolerant ('Coker 368'), and highly susceptible ('Braxton') soybean cultivars planted on 28 June 1985. Average yields of the nontreated cultivars were 557 kg/ha for Braxton, 1,309 kg/ha for Coker 368, and 1,682 kg/ha for Foster. Yield differences were significant. Aldic...

The effects of irrigation water salinity (12 dS m−), imposed at maximum tillering (35−40 days after sowing, DAS) or booting (50−60 DAS) or grain filling (75−85 DAS) stage of wheat, on growth and yield of the crop was demonstrated. The experiment comprised four treatments – I1: irrigation by fresh water (FW) at all three growth stages (control), I2: irrigation by saline water (SW) at maximum til...

The effects of cropping systems (fallow, rotation with sorghum-sudangrass hybrid [Sorghum bicolor x S. sudanense], and continuous soybean [Glycine max]), nematicide (aldicarb) treatment, and soybean cultivar on yield and nematode population densities were studied in a field infested with a mixture of Meloidogyne spp. and Heterodera glycines. Soybean following sorghum-sudangrass yielded 111 kg/h...

Field experiments were conducted to evaluate plant population and N-fertilizer effects on yield and yield components of maize (Zea mays L.). Three levels of plant populations (53000, 66000, and 800,000 plants ha⁻¹ corresponding to spacings of 75 × 25, 60 × 25, and 50 × 25 cm) and 4 doses of N (100, 140, 180, and 220 kg ha⁻¹) were the treatment variables. Results revealed that plant growth, ligh...

in order to study the effects of irrigation regimes, planting season and seed priming on grain yield and components of hashem genotype of chickpea in nurabad, northern lorestan, two 3-replicate split-plot field experiments, one autumn- and the other spring-sown, were conducted. the primed and non-primed seeds (subplots) of this chickpea genotype were sown in autumn and spring and subjected to f...
