In order to investigate the effects of nitrogen fertilizer levels and intercropping ratios on yield and other morphological traits of two crops, field experiments were conducted during two years (2010-2011) in the research field of the school of Agriculture, Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran. The study was carried out in a factorial experiment laid out based on a completely randomized block desig...

to determine the effect of n-fertilizer on nitrogen harvest index (nhi), crop production and growth indices of corn (s.c.704 cultivar), an experiment was conducted with five nitrogen rates (100, 140, 180, 220 and 260 kg n/ha) in a randomly complete block design in four replicates. the effect of n-fertilizer rates on variation of grain yield, number of kernels, 1000-kernel weight, nitrogen harve...

Fertilizer was applied annually for eight years to individual ramets in a loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) seed orchard at rates ranging from 0 to 448 kg nitrogen (N) ha(-1) year(-1). Clonal effects accounted for a major source of variation in both flowering and foliar nutrient concentrations. Foliar N concentrations were generally correlated with the intensity of fertilizer application, but were...

In this study, nitrogen fertilizer was applied to corn (Zea mays L.) at conventional (excessive) and recommended levels, and the growth response was assessed by measuring plant height and stem perimeter. Corn plant maximum height was observed in recommended rates of N fertilizer treatment, and the height without N fertilizer was the same as that receiving excess N fertilizer. Stem perimeter was...

Field experiments are described involving nitrogen fertilizer in wheat field to research its effect on microbial quantity and enzyme activity. The results showed that 250 kg N hm applied in wheat field (1) can increase bacteria, fungi, actinomycetes quantity by 39.9%, 56.7% and 70.5% compare to 0 kg N hm. (2) Similarly, the activities of soil urease, catalase and FDA expressed 60.8%, 18.3% and ...

crop rotation affect on crop nitrogen uptake and nitrogen use efficiency (nue). crop rotations with high nue decrease energy use and increase level of sustainability in agro ecosystems. the objectives of this research were to determine the suitable double cropping system for enhancing nue and evaluate the effects of crop rotation, n fertilizer rate and return of crop residue on nue. this study ...

to investigate the effect of nitrogen rate and split form of application on dry matter remobilization among different rice cultivars, a field experiment was carried out in the rice research institute of iran (amol) – during 2005. a split–split experiment on the basis of a randomized complete block design with 3 replications involving 3 factors was employed in which fertilizer rates (100, 150 an...

in order to study of the effect of seed inoculation with pgpr on nitrogen and phosphorus use efficiency of spring wheat in different levels of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers, an experimental was conducted at the research farm of mohageh ardabili university, ardabil, iran during 2012 year. the combination of nitrogen fertilizer in three levels (0, 40 and 80 kg n/ha as urea) and phosphorus f...
