limited information is available on water and nitrogen (n) management of sugarcane (saccharum officinarum l.) in khuzestan, southwestern iran, where this crop is currently and extensively grown under heavy irrigation and n fertilization. therefore, a field experiment was conducted from september 2000 to march 2002 at the research department of karoon agro-industry in khuzestan to determine the ...

in order to determine the effects of water deficit at different growth stages of sugar beet and optimal usage of water on quality and quantity characters of sugar beet, a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design was conducted with 13 treatments and four replications in 2000 and 2001 in agricultural research center of hamadan. for the first factor, irrigation withheld in th...

objective: a field experiment was conducted at dorud region, iran, during 2013. the aim of this research  was study on effect of different biofertilizers and irrigation closed time on some agronomic characteristics of sugar beet (beta vulgaris l.). methods: the experimental design was factorial based on rcbd with three replications. treatments were three irrigation closed time [oct-6 (a1), oct-...

Sweet sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is characterized by juicy stems with high concentrations of fermentable sugars. The genetic basis of these phenotypes is not understood. A sweet sorghum diversity panel (n = 252), consisting of sweet sorghum cultivars (n = 80) and diverse landraces selected for matching plant height and maturity (n = 172), was genotyped and phenotyped in three environ...

In Europe, the framework for sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) production was subject to considerable changes and for the future it is expected that sugar beet cultivation might concentrate around the sugar factories for economic reasons. Based on data from a national sugar beet farmers' survey and multi-year crop rotation trials, the effects of cropping interval (number of years in between two sub...

Considered to be the cleanest liquid fuel, bioethanol can be a reliable alternative to fossil fuels. It is produced by fermentation of sugar components of plant materials. The common onions are considered to be a favorable source of fermentation products as they have high sugar contents as well as contain various nutrients. This study focused on the effective production of ethanol from an endem...

abstract the effect of different larval density of chilo suppressalis walker was evaluated through 2006-2008 on rice infestation in controlled condition of the cages. the results indicated that there were significant effects between dead hearts, white heads and crop yield. the highest dead hearts and white heads were related to the treatment of 32 larvae per m2 and the lowest ones were obtained...

to study the effect of variable irrigation in spring on water use efficiency, quantity and quality of root and sugar yield of two sugar beet cultivars shirin and rasolan, an experiment was conducted at safiabad agriculctura research center during 2003-04 and 2004-05 cropping seasons. the experiment was designed in  a split plot with four replications in which five water supply treatments 25, 50...
