in order to evaluate the effect of water deficit and different fertilizer levels on yield and some agro-morphological characteristics of moldavian balm, a split plot experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design with three replications at the research farm of shahrekord university during 2013-2014 growing season. main factor was three levels of irrigation regimes including: 100...

In a semi-arid environment, the main challenge for crop production is water limitation in space and in time. Considered as appropriate tools, models are used to evaluate the effects of water deficit on crop productivity for better irrigation planning and sustainable yield. The AquaCrop model was tested using data collected during a 4-year experiment on soybean (Glycine max L. Merril) and s...

abstract- efficient use of irrigation water for summer crops should be considered seriously due to rare occurrence of precipitation in summer. this research was focused on the assessment of water use efficiency for dominant crops of summer cropping pattern in the study area (i.e., maize and rice) via considering water productivity (wp) with different water management scenarios at farm level at ...

In order to investigate the changes in fatty acids composition of rapeseed lines under Chitosan application, a factorial split-plot experiment was conducted based on RCBD in 3 replications during 2 years (2014-2016) in Karaj, Iran. Irrigation and Chitosan as main plots and cultivar in sub-plots were considered. In this study, treatmen...

due to limited water resources, applying efficient water use in agriculture is very important. this experiment was carried out in kabootarabad agricultural research station for two years using split plots in a randomized complete block design with four replications. six irrigation treatments based on evaporation from class a pan were applied as the main factor at three cotton growing stages, na...

in order to evaluate the effect of zeolite application and selenium spraying on some physiological traits and grain yield in medicinal pumpkin (cucurbita pepo l.) under different moisture regimes, a study was conducted in a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications during 2010 in takestan at gazvin province, iran. the three levels of irrigation facto...

supplementary irrigation is a key factor in dryland production of lentil (lens culinaris medik.). in order to study the effects of supplementary irrigation on phenological and morphological characters of three lentil (lens culinaris medik.) cultivars, a trial carried out as split block based on randomized complete block design with three replications at research field of agricultural college, f...

introduction sunflower (helianthus annuus l.) is one of the most important oil crops in the world. iran is climatically regarded as an arid and semi-arid region in the world, where the lack of precipitation and its inappropriate distribution, high temperature and extensive evaporation makes the irrigation the main way for meeting plants water demand. hence, studying the effect of irrigation on ...

Phenology and time of flowering are crucial determinants of rice adaptation to climate variation. A previous study characterized flowering responses of 203 diverse indica rices (the ORYTAGE panel) to ten environments in Senegal (six sowing dates) and Madagascar (two years and two altitudes) under irrigation in the field. This study used the physiological phenology model RIDEV V2 to heuristicall...
