Potato grown for early or off-season production plays a crucial role in the economy of several areas in the Mediterranean countries. Irrigation is important for determining yield and earliness, thus a better investigation of plant response under various pedo-climatic conditions can help to improve resource use efficiency and farmer income. A two-year field research (2009-2010) was carried o...

in order to investigate the effects of nitrogen fertilizer on yield and yield component of potato, (solanum tuberosum l.) and researching for direct and indirect effects of some important agronomic traits, an experiment was conducted based on randomized complete blocks design with three replications at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran, during 2008. chlorop...

Rapid expansion of the processing potato industry has contributed to a significant increase in irrigated potato production in Manitoba. However, information is lacking regarding optimum rotations for local conditions. In 1998, a crop rotation study was initiated on a Wellwood silt loam near Carberry to identify crop rotations that optimized crop yield and quality while maintaining soil quality....

Water resource limits, missing a developed irrigation program and undesirable water quality are the basic parameters that affect agricultural development of Iran. This research focus on irrigation amount water and its duration in other to increase crop yield of potato on Hamadan-Bahar plain. To this regard, there potato farm located on different area of the plain were selected during agronomic ...

Climate change  is one of the most important challenges in recent years. Heavy flood, hot weather, early coldness, most of drought replications, risen of sea water level, pests and plant disease ,reducing of ozone layer thickness, global worming ,and melting ices, are cases that introduced climate change issue in recent decades more. Climate is one of the most important  factors for crop  chang...
