the performance of new forage brassica plants were studied in ilam, iran, during 2012-2014 in a field experiment using a randomized complete block design with four replications. the treatments included, different forage crops perko, buko, oilseed radish, berseem clover, and the combination of three plants ramtil, phaselia, and clover. the studied traits consisted of plant height, forage yield, ...

Photoperiod manipulation during the lactation cycle alters milk yield, with long days (LDPP) increasing yield in lactation and short days (SDPP) in the dry period improving subsequent yield. Circulating prolactin (PRL) is directly related to day length, with LDPP increasing and SDPP decreasing PRL, respectively. Two blocks of 24 multiparous Holstein cows were used during two consecutive years t...

Converting rangelands to arable land such as dry farming is widely practiced in many places in Iran. This activity could possibly contribute to the increase in downstream sedimentation. The effects of this activity on downstream watersheds are not well documented for many strategic areas in the country. One such area which is proposed for this study is the Kardeh drainage basin, located in the ...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect  of irrigation period on the quality and quantity of yield and some morphological and physiological traits of three multigerm sugar beet genotypes named BP Mashhad, BP Karaj and 191. The experiment was in a split  plot  based on randomized complete block  design , carried out  at Motahari Research station of Sugar beet Seed Research Institute ...
