Intensive agriculture and increased N-fertilizer use have contributed to elevated emissions of the greenhouse gases, CO2, CH4, and N2O. In this study, the exchange of the greenhouse gases, CO2, N2O, and CH4, between a Quincy fine sand (mixed, mesic Xeric Torripsamments) soil and atmosphere was measured in a sweet corn (Zea mays L.) sweet corn potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) rotation during the 20...

Wheat is one of the most important food staff in consumption pattern of each country. More than 50 percent of energy is provided by bread in the developing countries. The aim of this study was measuring wheat losses during pre-harvest and harvest stages in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province of Iran in year 2013. Wheat losses at harvest stages were measured to wheat varieties in 2 levels of Omid...

in order to study the influence of municipal solid waste compost and nitrogen fertilizer on grain and forage yield of sweet corn an experiment was conducted at marvdasht during 2009. the experiment was arranged in split plots based on randomized complete block design with two factors and three replications. main plot included 5 levels of nitrogen fertilizer (100, 150, 200, 250, 300 kg n ha-1) a...

Weeds are a major constraint to the success of dry-seeded rice (DSR). The main means of managing these in a DSR system is through chemical weed control using herbicides. However, the use of herbicides alone may not be sustainable in the long term. Approaches that aim for high crop competitiveness therefore need to be exploited. One such approach is the use of high rice seeding rates. Experiment...

sustainable economical production of tea depends on the proper use of water and fertilizer. for this purpose, the role of supplemental irrigation and nitrogen fertilizer on economical production of tea plantations was studied by assessment of yield, production function, water use efficiency, and benefit/cost ratio, and final return in a field experiment at feshalam tea research station in fouma...

In order to study the effect of irrigation interval, N fertilizer and superabsorbent on yield and qualitative traits of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.), a split-split-plot experiment was coducted in a farm in Khusf of Birjand, Iran in 2009 on the basis of a Randomized Complete Block Design. The main plot was devoted to irrigation interval at three levels of 6, 12 and 18 days, the sub-plot was devot...

a three-year field experiment (2004-2007) was conducted on a silty clay loam soil at tajarak research station of hamedan to determine proper grain drill for wheat in hamedan dryland areas. in this study, three grain drills including: hamedani barzegar; sahalan kesht; and kesht gostar with wheat seed broadcasting and disking were used. the experiment was a randomized complete block design with f...

in order to evaluate the effect of different sources and rates of nitrogen the growth and biomass production of purslane, a randomized complete block design was conducted with three replications at the agricultural research farm of shahrekord university in 2012. fertilization treatments were consisted of control (no n amendment), 30 and 90 kg n ha-1in the form of urea fertilizer, 30 and 90 kg n...
