New irrigation methods under different nutritional element supplies for maize production was designed and tested for evaluate quantitative and qualitative parameters by split-plot arrangement according complete randomized block design with three replications. Different Irrigation regimes was belonged to main plots (Conventional furrow irrigation: CFI or A1, Alternate furrow irrigation: AFI or A...

a field experiment was performed in order to evaluate the effects of irrigation and application of k fertilizer on seed storage proteins  in chickpea, ilc-482 cultivar. experiment was performed in factorial using randomized complete block design with three replications. in this experiment, two factor consist of irrigation in three levels (i1= non irrigation and i2= irrigation in flowering stage...

Estimating K requirements in an accurate manner has not been easy in soils of the tropics. Challenges include managing soils with low exchange capacity under high rainfall and the consequent leaching losses of K, estimating K requirements when K-fixing clay minerals are present, and adjusting for crops that remove large amounts of K. In addition, issues in K fertilization are similar to that of...

Increased interests in low-input agriculture in recent years has seen the growing developmentin the use of commercial biological inoculants to increase the mobilization of key nutrients suchas nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) to enhance their availability to crop plants.The objectives of this field experiment with tobacco were to determine i) reduced rates ofinorganic fertilizer c...

Increased fertilizer input in agricultural systems during the last few decades has resulted in large yield increases, but also in environmental problems. We used data from published papers and a soil testing and fertilization project in Shaanxi province during the years 2005 to 2009 to analyze chemical fertilizer inputs and yields of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and maize (Zea mays L.) on the f...

In order to study the effects of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) on the yield, the appearance eligibility ratio and the contents of total glucosinolates and glucoraphanin of cauliflower, the 311-A optimization regression design was used to conduct field experiments of N, P, K fertilizer treatments using winter cauliflower variety ‘‘HB16’’. The models of the balanced application f...

Introduction ield experience and research demonstrate that manure nutrients can be readily substituted for commercial fertilizer. Fertilizer needs depend on soil test levels. Substituting manure at a lower cost than commercial fertilizer can result in signifi cant savings if relatively uniform application and distribution can be maintained. The less nutrient-dense manure requires more hauling o...

Soil physicochemical properties, soil microbial biomass and bacterial community structures in a rice-wheat cropping system subjected to different fertilizer regimes were investigated in two seasons (June and October). All fertilizer regimes increased the soil microbial biomass carbon and nitrogen. Both fertilizer regime and time had a significant effect on soil physicochemical properties and ba...
