Fertilizer application is essential in the improvement of soil quality and crop yield; it was therefore necessary to investigate effects integrated inorganic organic base fertilizer on chemical physical properties. This experiment conducted at Ambrose Alli University Teaching Research Farm, Ekpoma, Nigeria. The laid out a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with seven treatments, replicated...

Urea coating has been conducted using polylactic acid (PLA) blended with an industrial softwood kraft lignin. The latter was pre-functionalized via esterification or Mannich reaction. The coated urea becomes therefore a highly effective nitrogen fertilizer due to the controlled release after the coating, the slow release from the organically bound nitrogen structure formed after the Mannich rea...

In the article are presented investigation results, which shows effectiveness of urea with urease inhibitor – nBPT in potato growing agroecosystems. The advantages new fertilizer yield increase, and quality improvement. Urea lead to formation bigger tuber size what is one most important characteristic for marketable potato. Fertilizer was tested experimental fields real farm conditions.

to study the effects of simultaneous application of urea, znso4 and inoculants, (azotobacter and azospirillum), on uptake and nitrogen use efficiency in rapeseed, var. hyola308, a field experiment with split plot factorial layout based on a randomized complete block design was conducted at the research field of faculty of agricultural science, university of guilan in 2008. experimental treatmen...

Two field experiments were conducted to know the effect of different doses of nitrogen fertilizer on the growth, botanical parameters and yield of maize and jumbo fodder cultivated with cowpea as inter crop and evaluation of silage. The experimental plots for Jumbo with cowpea and maize with cowpea were applied to nitrogen (N2) levels as urea 0, 100, 150kg ha-1 and 0, 150, 220 kg/ha, respective...

Nitrification inhibitors (Thiourea and nitrification inhibitor “A”) with urea fertilizer were used to enhance the nitrogen efficiency. Nitrification inhibitors and the amount of nitrogen were applied through urea fertilizer to rice seed in Column Lysimeters. The whole experiment was conducted with following treatments such as; urea application as a control at 2gN/10kg (200 kg N/ha), urea applic...

BACKGROUND: Nitrogen is a crucial component of plant nutrition, and its deficiency limits productivity of crops more than any other element. To manage the sorghum crop for achievement of maximum forage production, the farmer should be concerned about nitrogen requirement and plant height. OBJECTIVES: This research was carried out to evaluate response of m...

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of different fertilizer types and application rates on ammonia volatilization loss and to explore nitrogen distribution and nitrogen use efficiency using the 15N isotope tracing technique in different alkaline salt-affected conditions in the Songnen Plain, Northeast China. The results showed a decreasing trend in ammonia volatilization l...
