Irrigation with distillery effluent, besides influencing crop yield, may have considerable impact on physical properties of soil because of its high salt and organic carbon contents. This experimental study was conducted to evaluate the effect of distillery effluent on hydraulic conductivity of a sandy loam alluvial soil and compare the effect of inorganic salts of potassium (K) with that of di...

to evaluate interaction of salinity stress and nitrogen use methods on yield and yield components, in experiment was conducted in split plot in randomized complete block with 3 replications. treatments included: salinity of irrigation water levels 1.5, 4.4 and 7.9 ds/m as main plots, and nitrogen treatments 1. using n fertilizer at 3 stage in soil, 2. using two third n fertilizer in soil at pla...

Methyl isothiocyanate (MITC) generators, such as metam sodium (Met-Na), are used for soil fumigation of agricultural land. The ban on the fumigant methyl bromide has resulted in greater use of MITC generators. To understand the efficacy of MITC, it is necessary to assess its generation and disappearance kinetics when Met-Na is applied to soil. This study evaluated the movement of water and dist...

long-term application of fertilizers containing p, especially organic fertilizers, usually increases the water soluble and available p of soil and at the same time may result in p accumulation in soil. organic fertilizers may also increase movement of p in the soil profile that could result in surface and ground water pollution. an experiment was conducted on field plots that received three app...

in order to evaluate effects of iron, zinc and manganese, and the methods of applying them on yield and yield components of sweet corn (zea mays saccharata), an experiment was performed as factorial based on randomized complete block design with four replications at the research farm of urmia university. experimental factors were micronutrient fertilizers with four levels (control, iron, zinc a...

nowadays, application of unconventional water such as wastewater is one of the strategies for preventing water deficit. this study was conducted to evaluate effect(s) of treated wastewater application on microbial and chemical contamination of soil and wheat (chamran v.). five treatments included t1 (irrigation with 100% fresh water), t2 (75% fresh water + 25% wastewater), t3 (50% fresh water +...

posting has some disadvantages that include nutrient and C loss during composting, the cost of land, equipManure or compost application based on N needs of corn (Zea ment, and labor required for composting, and odor assomays L.) may result in soil accumulation of P, N, and other ions, ciated with composting. since the manure or compost N/P ratio is usually smaller than the corn N/P uptake ratio...
