Nitrogen utilization by corn (Zea mays L.) is influenced by the form of inorganic N present in the root zone. A field experiment was conducted on Enon sandy loam (fine, mixed, thermic Ultic Hapludalf) to determine N use efficiency and its partitioning in various plant parts of corn. Ammonium nitrate labeled either as NH4-N or NO3-N and applied at 50, 100, or 200 kg N ha" was evaluated. Microplo...

The effect of organic manure and chemical fertilizers on vegetable crops and soil properties in the radish-stem amaranth-Indian spinach cropping pattern was studied in a homestead area of Gazipur district in Bangladesh. There were eight treatments poultry manure (PM) 5 t ha (T1), cowdung (CD) 10 t ha -1 (T2), household waste (HW) 10 t ha -1 (T3), PM 2.5 t ha -1 + reduced RDF (recommended dose o...

Nutrition as an environmental factor has a special place in the growth, main and sub branches number of Rosa damascena Mill. and these morphological traits affected yield and flower number of the plant. So, this experiment was conducted in the Research Institute of Forest and Rangelands, Karaj, Iran, to evaluate the effect of macro- and micronutrients on the plant growth. A split plot design wa...

In this study the effect of four levels of nitrogen fertilizer (0, 50, 100, 150) kg/ha and four levels of super phosphate triple (0, 50, 100, 150) kg/ha were investigated on Rubia Inctorum L. (madder) under salinity stress. A factorial experiment was carried out in a research farm in Roaddasht, Isfahan based on complete randomized blocks with three replications. The results of the variance anal...

The relationship between nitrous oxide (N2O) flux and N availability in agricultural ecosystems is usually assumed to be linear, with the same proportion of nitrogen lost as N2O regardless of input level. We conducted a 3-year, high-resolution N fertilizer response study in southwest Michigan USA to test the hypothesis that N2O fluxes increase mainly in response to N additions that exceed crop ...

ABSTRACT- Declining land productivity associated with decreasing soil organic carbon and nutrients is a significant issue in monoculture production. The field experiment with different rates of fertilizer systems (60 kg ha-1 N + 100 kg ha-1 P, 300 kg ha-1 Bio-organic (organic fertilizer), 3 kg ha-1 Bioumik (biofertilizer), 30 kg ha-1  N + 50 kg ha-1 P + 150 kg ha-1 Bio-organic fertilizer and 30...

The beet armyworm, Spodoptera exigua, is one of the most important pests of sugar beet in Iran. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of water and nitrogen treatments of sugar beet planton developmental time and fecundity life table parameters of the pest. An experiment was carried out under laboratory conditions (25±2oC, 70±5% R.H. and 12L: 12D) on larvae reared...
