in order to comparison the foliar application of biological, biostimulator and chemical fertilizers on growth characteristics and yield of saffron, a factorial experiment was conducted in a completely randomized block design with four replication in 3- year field of saffron in dargaz, khorasan razavi province from 2010 to 2011. the first factor had 5 levels included biostimulator fertilizer bio...

Organic fertilizers are generally thought to be an effective way to sustain soil fertility and plant growth. To promote the productivity of chrysanthemum, five sources of liquid organic fertilizers (L1–L5), as well as a chemical fertilizer, were applied at an early stage of the growth cycle to investigate their effects on plant growth. In the short-term pot experiment, the liquid organic fertil...

The application of organic fertilizers alone or in combination with bio-fertilizers is important for sustainable agriculture, healthy agricultural production and restoring soil quality. Compost, vermicompost and mycorrhiza amendments could improve soil quality and plant yield. However, little is known about their impact on yield and quality of European borage (Borago officinalis L.). To evaluat...

in order to investigate the possibility of using organic fertilizers in tobacco floating nursery, an experiment was conducted at tobacco research institute of urmia in 2010. the experiment was done as factorial trail based on randomized complete block design (crbd) with four replications. the levels of first factor were disinfected poultry manure, disinfected pigeon manure, a complete fertilize...

BACKGROUND: Bio-fertilizers being essential components of organic farming play vital role in maintaining long term soil fertility and sustainability.OBJECTIVES: Study yield and growth indices of sorghum in response to consume chemical fertilizer and Nitroxin bio-fertilizer.METHODS: This research was conducted via split plot experime...

in other to evaluate the effects of nitroxin biofertilizer and different levels of nitrogen fertilizer, on yield and yield components of winter wheat (triticum aestivum), a field experiment was conducted in research station, college of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad in 2009-2010. the experiment was conducted as a factorial arrangement based on completely randomized block design wit...

Nitrate concentrations of groundwater are increasing in residential areas. One probable cause is input of nitrogen fertilizers to maintain healthy turfgrass. This study was conducted to evaluate differences in nitrate concentrations in soil water between sites fertilized with chemical or organic fertilizer. To obtain nitrate concentrations leaching below turfgrass and evaluate the impact to gro...

Crop production is a process of multiple inputs (water and nutrients, etc.), and the relationships between the inputs and crop yield are very complex. This study used a model for data envelopment analysis (DEA) to evaluate the efficiency of irrigation-fertilization schemes for winter wheat in North China. The field experiments were conducted at the Xiaohe Irrigation Experiment Station in Centra...
