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 terms of tillering potential, the aboveground portions of rice are significantly influenced by the nitrogen level (NL) and transplant density (TD). To obtain a suitable combination of NL and TD, five NLs (0, 90, 180, 270 and 360 kg ha-1) and two TDs [high density (HD), 32.5×104 hills ha-1; low density (LD), 25.5×104 hills ha-1] were used in the rice experiments during 2012 to 2014, in Jiangs...

Th e response of diff erent fertilizer doses was studied on the ratoon crop as well as main crop. Th e diff erent fertilizer doses under the study were F1 (N=90, P2O5 = 45, K2O=50, S=13, Zn = 4: in kg ha-1), F2 (N=105, P2O5 = 55, K2O=60, S=13, Zn = 4: in kg ha-1), F3 (N=120, P2O5 = 65, K2O=70, S=13, Zn = 4: in kg ha-1), F 4(N =135, P2O5 =75, K2O=80, S=13, Zn=4: in kg ha-1) and F5 (N=150, P2O5 =...

qualitative and quantitative analyses of phyto- and zooplankton, and growth performance of cyprinus carpio linnaeus were done in earthen vats receiving compost, diammonium phosphate and vermicompost as direct application fertilizer were conducted. significant differences were observed in the diversity and abundance of plankton in response to fertilization. the highest production of fish was obt...

in order to investigate effects of optimum use of manure and nitrogen fertilizer on yield and yield components of corn single cross 704 (late maturing, non-prolific and dent) in different levels of irrigation water. a field study was conducted in 2005 year in agriculture experiment station of college agriculture, arak university (34o 32′ n, 50o 31′ e; 1759 m above mean sea level). design of exp...

ABSTRACT- Crop residue is applied to amend soil properties and increase crop yield. In this study, the effects of rapeseed residues and different rates of nitrogen on grain yield and yield components of sunflower and weed dry matter were investigated. The experiment was conducted at the Experimental Farm of College of Agriculture, Shiraz University, located at Badjgah, Shiraz, Iran in 2007-2008...

The effect of integrated use of mineral and organic N sources (farmyard manure, poultry manure, and Filter Cake) on yield and N uptake of wheat were assessed in biennial field experiment carried out on silty clay loam soil in Nuclear Institute for Food and Agriculture, Tarnab, Peshawar Pakistan during 2005-07. Combined dose of N provided from all sources was applied @120 kg ha-1. There were 17 ...

China's economic boom in recent decades has stimulated consumer demand for animal products and consequently, a vast expansion in animal production. From 1978 to 2006, the number of animals increased by 322% for pigs, 209% for poultry, and 2770% for dairy cattle. The objective of the present study was to quantify nitrogen mass flow in China's animal production system at the national scale and to...
