An experimental study is presented on the effect of Conservation Agriculture (CA) compared to Conventional Agriculture (ConvA) upon Maize Yield based on split-plot model. Two factors have been considered: A Factor-Fertilization with two variants: A1N40P40 kg/ha and A2N90P70 kg/ha; B FactorCrop protection with 4 variants : B14 treatments, B2-3 treatments, B32 treatments and B41 treatment. In com...

Three maize hybrids (Baber, Pioneer 30P45 and Syngenta 6621) were compared for yield and yield components and correlations were worked out among the yield parameters at various nitrogen levels in an experiment conducted at Agricultural University, Peshawar, Pakistan during summer 2009. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete blocks with split plot arrangement having three replication...

land evaluation and its consistency with simulation model’s outputs could assist decision making to develop plants for cultivation. in this study land suitability and potential yield of cumin was determined using cummod and sum of values method by climatic and topographic factors, respectively, as a case study in khorasans provinces. results revealed that despite of the majority of favorable an...

in order to investigate of different salinity stress and plant densities effects on quantitative and qualitative forage and grain yields of kochia a randomized complete block design in factorial arrangement with three replications was used. a field study was conducted in 2011 cropping season in agriculture experiment satiation, college of agriculture, islamic azad university, arak branch treatm...

in order to study the effects of irrigation regimes, planting season and seed priming on grain yield and components of hashem genotype of chickpea in nurabad, northern lorestan, two 3-replicate split-plot field experiments, one autumn- and the other spring-sown, were conducted. the primed and non-primed seeds (subplots) of this chickpea genotype were sown in autumn and spring and subjected to f...

The low average grain yield (0.7 ton ha(-1)) of tef in Ethiopia is mainly attributed to low soil fertility, and inappropriate tillage and weeds control practices. Despite this, limited scientific information has been documented so far on their interaction effects on tef crop productivity in northern Ethiopia. The objective of this study was to assess the separate and interaction effects of till...

A field experiment was performed from 2003 to 2008 to evaluate the effects of tillage system and nitrogen management regimes on crop yields and nitrate leaching from the fluvo-aquic soil with a winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)-maize (Zea mays L.) double-cropping system. The tillage systems consisted of conventional tillage (CT) and no-tillage (NT). Three nitrogen management regimes were incl...

APSIM Nwheat is a crop system simulation model, consisting of modules that incorporate aspects of soil water, nitrogen (N), crop residues, and crop growth and development. The model was applied to simulate aboveand belowground growth, grain yield, water and N uptake, and soil water and soil N of wheat crops in the Netherlands. Model outputs were compared with detailed measurements of field expe...

in order to study the effects of manganese sulfate in increasing seed yield of four safflower genotypes (carthamus tinctorius) under rainfed conditions, this experiment carried out in maragheh agricultural research station. the experiment was arranged with four mn fertilizer levels (0,10,20,30 kg ha-1) as soil application together with two foliar spray levels (1% and 2%) of 1.5 kg ha-1 manganes...
