Experiments described were conducted to define the vitamin A status of ewes and lambs grazing orchardgrass fertilized at various levels of N or N plus micro-elements. Four fertilizer treatments (56 kg N/ha; 168 kg N/ha; 504 kg N/ha; 504 kg N/ha + Co, Cu, Mo, Zn and S) were applied to replicated hay and pasture plots of Potomac orchardgrass on a Gilpin silt loam soil. Ewe lambs were allocated ra...

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was planted as winter crop using raised bed and conventional planting system with four N levels at Regional Wheat Research Station, Rajshahi (latitude 28°75′ N and longitude 92°58′ E), during November to March in 2002 and 2003 to study N content in grain and straw, uptake of total nitrogen, N use efficiency, fertilizer recovery percentage and grain yield. The highes...

Minimizing runoff losses from grasslands may benefit the producer and abate potential eutrophication of aquatic systems. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of fertilizer source and soil aeration on the volume and quality of runoff from grassed plots. Sixteen tall fescue [Festuca arundinacea Schreb.]–bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon L.] plots were established on Altavista sandy-loam ...

Fertilizer was applied annually for eight years to individual ramets in a loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) seed orchard at rates ranging from 0 to 448 kg nitrogen (N) ha(-1) year(-1). Clonal effects accounted for a major source of variation in both flowering and foliar nutrient concentrations. Foliar N concentrations were generally correlated with the intensity of fertilizer application, but were...

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...

To investigate the effects of organic fertilizers and irrigation frequencies on yield and quality of cherry tomato an experiment was conducted using six fertilizer doses including control (no fertilizer), NPK fertilizer (urea at 300 kg, TSP 200 kg and MoP 250 kg), cow-dung at 5 t ha-1, cow-dung at 10 t ha-1, poultry manure at 5 t ha-1 and poultry manure at 10 t ha-1 with two levels of irrigatio...
