In the context of climate change, sowing date and cultivar choice can influence productivity sorghum, especially where production is constrained by low soil fertility early terminal drought across challenging agro-ecologies north-eastern Nigeria. Planting within an optimal window to fit cultivar’s maturity length critical for maximizing/increasing crop yield following appropriate climate-smart ...

to investigate the effect of supplemental irrigation and nitrogen fertilizer on kernel weight, test weight and wheat grain yield under dryland conditions, a two-year field experiment was conducted in the research farm of college of agriculture, shiraz university during 2004-2005. five irrigation regime including dryland conditions, irrigation at stem elongation, booting, flowering and grain fil...

The performance of the Paci¢c white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei (Boone) under various stocking strategies was evaluated in earthen ponds ¢lled with freshwater amended with major ions. Six 0.1-ha earthen ponds located in Pine Blu¡, AR, USA, were ¢lled with freshwater in 2003 and 2004, and potassium magnesium sulphate added to provide 50mgK L 1 and stock salt added to provide 0.5 g L 1 salinity. ...

to study the effects of zabol wastewater treated with two kinds of fertilizer (manure and chemical fertilizer) application vs use of ordinary water on grain yield and yield components in corn (kosc704) a field experiment was conducted at the university of zabol, iran during 2007 growing season. the statistical plan selected was a split plot one of three replications. the treatments were compris...

The challenges of soil degradation and climate change have led to the emergence Conservation Agriculture (CA) as a sustainable alternative tillage-based agriculture systems. Despite recognition positive impacts on health, CA adoption in Africa has remained low. Previous health studies mainly focused ‘scientific’ measurements, without consideration local knowledge, which influences how farmers i...

Teosinte (Euchlaena mexicana L.) is a popular herbage crop in Nepal. Although farmers produce teosinte seeds, management for maximizing seed yield unknown. A study was undertaken to investigate order explore the production potential of yield. There were four different sowing dates (30 March, 30 April, May and June), rates (20, 40, 60 80 kgha?1) three cuttings (nil, once at 45 days after (DAS), ...

Field assessment of integrated management BT cotton pests was carried out in two consecutive seasons; 2016/2017 and 2017/2018 the experimental research farm Kassala University, Sudan. Four insecticides (imidacloprid, abamectin, profenofos, lufenuron) from different chemical groups with a mode action three levels (43.81 kgha-1, 87.62 131.43 kgha-1) soil-applied nitrogen were tested IPM package. ...
