There is little information about the effects of ethephon ripening hormone on the yield of sweet sorghum in Thailand. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the impact of ethephon hormone applied at different growth stages of three cultivars of sweet sorghum on its growth and yield. The experiment was conducted from December 2016 to May 2017 at a research plot of the Faculty of Agricultural Te...

The present study was conducted in order to investigate the effect of salicylic acid on growth, yield and macro-elements absorption of fennel in split-plot as base on randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications in Tehran, Iran. Irrigation regime as main plot was undergone in 5 levels that included: I1: full irrigation, I2: cut off irrigation at stem elo...

Background: Livestock plays a significant role in Indian economy. Cattle population India is higher (192.6 million), whereas the productivity not. Quality fodder has to be supplied rather than costly concentrate feeds reduce cost of production. Water being important input agriculture, its per capita availability (1829 m3) reducing gradually. To improve use efficiency drip irrigation preferable ...
