In order to evaluation effect of different level of humic acid affected drought stress on seed yield, its components and morphological traits of corn a research farm was conducted according split plot experiment based randomized complete blocks design at three replication during 2015 year. Main factor included four irrigation regimes (90mm, 110 mm, 130 mm and 150mm evaporation from pan class A)...

this study was conducted to determine the appropriate irrigation interval on the basis of cumulative water evaporation from standard evaporation pan (class a) and to find out the effects of irrigation regimes on growth indices and on qualitative and quantitative yields of sugar beet. the experiment was conducted in 2005 at the lavark agricultural experiment station fields, isfahan university of...

In order to calibrate and validate the PILOTE model for rice in a humid climate, this study was carried in a randomized complete block design with three replications on a popular local variety, Hashemi, during 2001, 2002, 2005, 2006 and 2007 crop seasons. This research was done at the Rice Research Institute of Rasht, Iran. Evaluation of simulated and measured grain yield and dry matter values ...

The concept of resilience is widely promoted as a promising notion to guide new approaches to ecosystem and resource management that try to enhance a system's capacity to cope with change. A variety of mechanisms of resilience specific for different systems have been proposed. In the context of resource management those include but are not limited to the diversity of response options and flexib...

Preharvest conditions, including photoperiod and irrigation regime, affect the keeping quality of long stem roses (Rosa x hybrida). Rose plants cultivar ‘Charming Black’ were subjected to four different treatments investigate how nocturnal supplemental lighting regimes influence post-harvest performance. Vase life, ornamental quality, water balance, petal color, vacuolar pH, soluble sugar conte...

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...

geotextiles are one of the most widely used synthetic materials in filtration and drainage applications. since in real applications, geotextiles are subjected to various hydraulic gradients and confining stresses, hydraulic behavior of geotextiles under different circumstances is of great practical importance. in this study filtration and drainage properties of several nonwoven needle-punched g...

Available water resources for agricultural irrigation have decreased worldwide in recent decades, prompting advances in water saving methods. In this study, soil water regime and water balance in a transplanted rice field with reduced irrigation (multiple shallow depth irrigations) in the Taihu Lake Basin of East China were observed and then evaluated using Hydrus-1D model during two consecutiv...
