The performance of canola (Brassica napus L.) was evaluated using various nitrogen levels and shoots cutting at New Developmental Farm of The University of Agriculture, Peshawar, Pakistan during Rabi 2012-13. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design (RCBD) with split plot arrangement having four replications each. Nitrogen levels @ 0, 50, 75 and 100 kg ha were allotted to...

Despite the importance of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) in the world, this crop has received least research attention in Pakistan. Therefore, a field experiment was carried out to evaluate the performance of tillage system under various irrigation intervals and phosphorus levels on oil contents, yield and yield attributes of Sesame. The experiment was conducted at New Developmental Farm of the Un...

in order to evaluate the effects of foliar application of methanol and irrigation intervals on yield and yield components of chickpea cultivars a factorial experiment as split plots based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted in spring 2008 at the agricultural research station of ferdowsi university of mashhad. the treatments were 10 and 20 irrigation interva...

Cover crop benefits include nitrogen accumulation and retention, weed suppression, organic matter maintenance, and reduced erosion. Organic farmers need region-specific information on winter cover crop performance to effectively integrate cover crops into their crop rotations. Our research objective was to compare cover crop seeding mixtures, planting dates, and termination dates on performance...

In order to study the effect of irrigation interval, N fertilizer and superabsorbent on yield and qualitative traits of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.), a split-split-plot experiment was coducted in a farm in Khusf of Birjand, Iran in 2009 on the basis of a Randomized Complete Block Design. The main plot was devoted to irrigation interval at three levels of 6, 12 and 18 days, the sub-plot was devot...

drought is one on the most important factors limiting the productivity of spring chickpea in drylands of iran. sixtym genotypes of chickpea from icarda's germplasm accessions, as well as one drought susceptible check (ilc 3279), were sown in spring of 2010 at two locations, sanandaj and maragheh, in the western highlands of iran for one year. the experiment in each location was laid out in a ra...

A field experiment was conducted at the Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University Farm, Dhaka 1207 during the period from December 2008 to April 2009 to study the role of potassium and sulphur on the growth, yield and oil content of soybean (Glycine max var.BARI Soybean-5). The experimental soil was clay loam in texture having pH of 6.3. The experiment included four levels of potassium viz. 0, 20, ...
