diversification of phosphorus sources can bring substantial synergy effects within all thesustainable development domains: environmental, economic and social, and such an opportunity should not beoverlooked. urban sinks accumulate phosphorus and other elements and may serve as sources of secondaryraw materials. this paper evaluates phosphorus sources based on their total material requirement (t...

improving the resource use efficiency in agro- ecosystems is an importantfactor for reducing environmental pollution. to evaluate phosphorus (p) efficiency andbalance indicators, research was conducted in wheat and saffron production systems inthe qaenat region (south khorasan province, iran) during 2011 and 2012, based on themethod of the organization for economic co-operation and development ...

canola (brassica napus l.) is one of the most important oil seed crops. in order to evaluate the effects of integrated fertilization (chemical, manure and biofertilizers) on canola (b. napus variety hyola 401) yield and uptake of mineral nutrients in saline soil and water, a field experiment was conducted in randomized complete blocks (rcbd) arrangement with eight treatments in three replicatio...

application of bio-fertilizers, especially mycorrhiza as substituent or complement of chemical fertilizers is one of the most important strategies for plant nutrition in sustainable management of agro-ecosystems. in order to evaluate the separated and integrated application of mycorrhiza biological fertilizer and phosphorus chemical fertilizers on growth indices of chickpea (cicer arietinum l.)...

to evaluate the effects of some phosphorus solubilizing bacteria strains on yield and agronomic traits in local bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.) of guilan, different phosphate fertilizer rates were tested during 2014 growing season. this research was carried out in experimental field of agricultural and natural resource research center of guilan province as split plot arrangement based on randomize...

AN IMPROVED UNDERSTANDING of the terms fertilizer-use efficiency (FUE) and maximum economic yield (MEY) has likely never been as important to western Canadian agronomists and farmers as it is today. The objective of PPI/PPIC and Foundation for Agronomic Research (FAR) sponsored research projects in western Canada is to support a better understanding of the role of phosphorus (P) and potassium (...

to study the effects of mycorrhiza fungi and humic substances on yield and yield components of corn (zea mays l. var. s.c. 704) under limited irrigation condition, an experiment was conducted in split plot arrangement based on rcbd in four replications at the research farm of university of tehran (karaj-iran) in 2011. the main factor consisted of three irrigation levels i.e. normal (irrigation ...

to survey the effects of chemical and biological phosphorus on the yield and essential oil of satureja hortensis l. as an important medicinal plant, factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replicates at research station of faculty of agriculture, urmia university in 2011. the treatments were chemical phosphorus fertilizer with four levels (0, 50, ...

introduction phosphorus (p) is an essential element in crop nutrition, which can be growth limiting or an environmental contaminant, if present in excess. on the other hand, tillage practices have a direct effect on behavior and availability of soil p. since, application of different tillage methods lead to different patterns of soil phosphorus distribution, hence p fertilizer needs and p avail...
