this research was conducted under greenhouse conditions to evaluate the optimum combination of irrigation and fertilizer levels to attain the best yield and quality of tomato crop. the experiment was conducted by using a split-plot design with three replicates. irrigation levels were applied to the main plots and fertilizer levels to the sub-plots. for each experimental unit, the irrigation lev...

the effects of different levels of nitrogen (100, 200, 300 and 400 mg/l) and potassium (125, 250 and 375 mg/l) on yield and leaf n and k concentrations of tomato were investigated in perlit culture using a factorial randomized design with three replications. the highest fruit yield was obtained with 200 mg/l n. higher levels of nitrogen decreased tomato yield. with increasing nitrogen concentra...

residue management has a direct impact on soil physical and chemical characteristics which in turn have identical effects on sustainability of crop production in agroecosystems. the effects of wheat residual management practices (burning, plowing under and removal) on soil physical and chemical characteristics were investigated in this research. treatments were compared in a complete block desi...

. eight holstein cows in early lactating stage were used in a 4×4 change-over design within 4 periods of 21-d to determine the effects of alfalfa hay particle size and soybean oil supplementation on intake, digestibility, ruminal and blood metabolites, chewing activity, milk yield and compositions. four total mixed rations containing 20, 20 and 60% corn silage, alfalfa hay and concentrate respe...

abstract soil compaction is a main factor that reduces the cane yield in sugarcane fields, in southwest of iran, especially in ratoon cropping system. therefore, sub-soiling practices could alleviate adverse effects of compaction and increased yield. in according to this aim, a study was to evaluate the effect of  ratooning practice systems consisting of control (no subsoiler), two and four sha...

in this research for study the effects of nitrogen fertilizer on yield and yield components of current rice cultivars was an experiment as factorial in rcbd with three replications where conducted during 2009 year in two locations (rice research institute, rasht, and rudsar, east of guilan). factors were cultivars (khazar, ali kazemi and hashemi), and nitrogen fertilizer levels (0, 30, 60, and ...

in order to study the effect of different levels of nitrogen and sulfur fertilizers on yield, yield components, content of some elements, qualitative and quantitative traits of spring safflower (serin cv.) an experiment was conducted at agriculture and natural resource research station of ardabil in 2008. this experiment was carried out in factorial experiment in completely randomized block des...
