NEDKOV, N., 2007. Research on the Effect of Pre-sowing Treatment on Seed Germination of Hypericum perforatum L. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 13: 31-37 Trials were carried out for improvement of seed germination of St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum L.) based on studies of main sowing properties after treatments as follows: soaking, soaking and heating and combined seed stratification. Recommendatio...

in order to evaluate yield and yield components properties of cold-tolerant chickpea under winter sowing and complementary irrigation conditions, two experiments in the context of partial balanced block design with 81 chickpea genotypes and three replications were carried out. complementary irrigation was performed during growing season including irrigation immediately after sowing, 20 days aft...

Agronomic research suggests Australian farmers may increase wheat yields by 13 to 47% and reduce risk of crop failures by sowing crops earlier than is currently practiced. This study investigated the potential to use remote sensing to assist in evaluating changes in farmer sowing date practices in response to research recommendations, using study paddocks in the southern Australian cropping reg...

This study investigates the hypothesis that tomtits are significantly less susceptible to 1080 poison operations when cereal rather than carrot bait applications are used, both at relatively low sowing rates. We made counts of territorial male tomtits along transects during standard 1080 possum control operations in 2001 to 2003. The transects had 3–5 kg ha sowing rates of either carrot or cere...

-An analysis of occupational incidence data for malignant melanomas and squamous-and basal-cell carcinomas of the skin in England and Wales from 1970 to 1975 is reported. The occupational pattern for melanomas of the trunk and limbs differed markedly from the pattern for melanomas of the head, face and neck. Office work was associated with a large excess of melanomas of the trunk and limbs. In ...

In order to evaluation of influence of sulphur fertilizer on grain yield and the some of physiological indices of canola, an split plot experiment based on randomized complete block design was conducted in Research Farm Islamic Azad University, Ardabil branch in 2007. Factors were: sulfur fertilizer at four levels (0 as control, 25, 50 and 75 kg S/ha) in the main plots and canola cultivars at t...

A nineteen year trial at Lake Tekapo compared the longer term trends of over-drilling legume and grasses into either previous undeveloped tussock country or following a previous legume phase. Tall oat grass (from summer sowing) and cocksfoot (from spring sowing) were the most successful of the sown grasses. They remained a low proportion of the swards but greater with prior herbicide treatment,...

Germinant sowing is operational for tree nurseries in South Africa. The technique reduces seed costs for eucalypts and pines. Filled cell percentage is usually near 98%. Seed efficiency at many North American container nurseries can be improved by adopting either germinant sowing or single sowing technology. Tree Planters' Notes xx(x):xx; 199x. INTRODUCTION Managers at most container nurseries ...

Rice–wheat cropping system is very common in India. It contributes to over 70% of total food grain production in the country with an area of 12 M ha under this cropping system. However, it is estimated that under rice and wheat crops separately the area is 42.31 and 22.98 M ha respectively. Looking to the above facts a study at farmer’s field of Ambedkar Nagar district was under taken to evalua...

Field experiments were conducted at Government Adaptive Research Farm Karor Lal Eason, districtLayyah, to study the impact of trace elements on uptake of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and yield of wheat. The experiments were laid out in RCBD having three replications. Soil samples were collected before sowing of crop from 0-15 cm depth and analyzed for physical and chemical properties (textur...
