in order to evaluate the effects of beneficial free living bacteria (azotobacter chroococcum and azospirillum brasilense) compared to different nitrogen fertilizer levels on yield and yield components of barley (hordeum vulgare cv reyhan) a field experiment was conducted at research station college of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad in 2007-2008. the experiment was arranged in a ran...

This study setout to investigate the effect of wheat residue, tillage, and nitrogen fertilizer management on some agronomic traits of soybean as a split split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications. The main plots included wheat residue management: collecting and leaving residue and sub plot included tillage (without tillage and conventional tillage), and the sub...

The paper presents a detailed understanding of nitrogenous fertilizer use in Indian agriculture and estimation of seasonal nitrogen loosses from rice crop in Indo-Gangetic plain region, the ‘food bowl’ of the Indian sub-continent. An integrated methodology was developed for quantification of different forms of nitrogen losses from rice crop using remote sensing derived inputs, field data of fer...

abstract in order to investigate the effects of nitrogen fertilizer levels on the yield and quality of potato, (solanum tuberosum l.) a field experiment was conducted based on randomized complete blocks design with 3 replications in the research field of the college of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad. nitrogen topdress fertilizer was applied in two levels of 100 and 150 kgn.ha-1 and...

Legumes play a crucial role in agricultural and ecosystems based on their ability to convert atmospheric nitrogen gas into plant-available ammonium in symbiosis with soil bacteria commonly called ‘rhizobia’. This nitrogen-fixing ability makes legumes attractive as an agricultural, economical and environmentally friendly crop as their requirement for nitrogen fertilizer is reduced, leading to a ...

We studied nutrient balance in a paddy field that had a recycling irrigation system and evaluated the effect of the irrigation system on nutrient balance during the irrigation period, from April to August 2002. Chemical fertilizer was the main input of phosphorus; the soil absorbed about 56% of it. The amount of nitrogen supplied by the irrigation system was higher than in a representative padd...
