this study investigated the effect of sowing date and limited water allocation management for single irrigation on the grain yield of rainfed barley. the experiment was a split-split plot arranged in a randomized complete block design with three replications from 2004 to 2006 at the main station of the dryland agricultural research institute at maragheh. the treatments comprised three sowing da...

Deep tillage of compacted soils can improve potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tuber yield and quality if no other production factors are limiting. We hypothesized that within-row subsoiling and N placement would affect tuber yields and availability of plant nutrients. Potato (cv. Russet Burbank) was grown after winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) in 1989 and after dry bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) i...

Today, planting winter cover crops to reduce herbicide is high considered. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of barley grass cover crop on control weed of flix weld (Descurainia Sophia). This experiment was conducted at agricultural farm of Rezvan Junior College in kerman provinces (latitude 25 55 / N, longitude 53 26 / E , altitude 1755m) from September 2010 to April 2011. A ...

the aim of this study was investigation the energy flow and global warming potential (gwp) of corn farm in gorgan city. for this purpose, data were collected from three conventional planting methods (spring planting, summer planting in wheat residue and summer planting without wheat residue) by using a face-to-face questionnaire performed with farmers in summer 2012. after the required data in ...

ABSTRACT- Maize production, which is ranked after wheat and barely in Fars province, Iran, needs a considerable amount of irrigation water that is not available in scarce water conditions in drought situations. Therefore, proper planting method can improve irrigation water management. The objectives of the present study were to investigate the effects of two planting methods, on-bed and in furr...

Soil management practices, such as tillage method or straw return, could alter soil organic carbon (C) contents. However, the effects of tillage method or straw return on soil organic C (SOC) have showed inconsistent results in different soil/climate/cropping systems. The Yangtze River Delta of China is the main production region of rice and wheat, and rice-wheat rotation is the most important ...

Abstr act. Cooperating with Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Administrative Bureau of Dingxing County, Hebei province, we applied the agricultural information software of Digital Maize Planting and Management System to guide local maize production. This system can direct the maize production during the whole course including digital simulation and design of maize production, planting plan befor...

Management decisions grounded in ecological understanding are essential to the maintenance of a healthy urban forest. Decisions about where and what tree species to plant have both short and long-term consequences for the future function and resilience of city trees. Through the construction of a theoretical damage index, this study examines the legacy effects of a street tree planting program ...
