in order to increase grain yield, nitrogen use efficiency (nue) and nitrogen apparent recovery fraction (narf) in wheat (triticum aestivum l.), this experiment was carried out with 5 or 6 treatments and 3 or 4 replications in 14 locations at 22 different sites in iran during the 2004-05 growing season. the experiment was designed as a completely randomized block. the effect of n sources and tim...

Short growing season restricts production of standard-sized fruit trees in nurseries at cold regions. Enhancing plant growth by optimizing program of mineral nutrition may solve the problem. This study evaluated efficiency of fertilizers [urea, sulfur coated urea (SCU), or foliar applications of a NPK compound fertilizer] for optimizing the growth of seedling rootstocks and grafted young almond...

Controlled release urea (CRU) is considered to enhance crop yields while alleviating negative environmental problems caused by the hazardous gas emissions that are associated with high concentrations of ammonium (NH₄⁺) and nitrate (NO₃-) in black soils. Short-term effects of sulfur-coated urea (SCU) and polyurethane-coated urea (PCU), compared with conventional urea, on NO₃- and NH₄⁺ in black s...

In order to evaluate the effects of inoculants and chemical fertilizer on quantitative and qualitative yield, a bread wheat cultivar treated with Azotobacter, arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi (AMF) and nitrogen sources by using split plot on the basis of randomized complete block design with three replications in Fars Agricultural Research Station during 2007-2008. Main plots consisted of nitrogen f...

Despite growing interest in controlled-release N fertilizers (CRNFs) because of their potential for enhancing nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) and economic returns, comprehensive impact on machine-transplanted rice remains to be understudied. To address this gap, here, we present a two-year field experiment that assessed the CRNF using mechanical deep placement fertilization (DPF) cultivation. The...

review and goals: the ajowan(carum copticum) is a medicinal plants from apiaceae family that seeds contains 2-4% of volatile oil. 9-17 of chemical composition of ajowan essential oil have been reported(2), it have antibacterial and antioxidant activity of it caused to preserve the food materials(1). the application of chemical fertilizer leads to environmental pollution and ecological disaster ...

nitrogen use efficiency (nue) is usually lower in paddy rice (oryza sativa l.) than in upland crops. for this reason, any attempt to improve nue through the use of different nitrogen (n) carriers, different rice cultivars, properly timed n application, the use of ni-trification and urease inhibitorsis of prime interest. moreover, zinc (zn) next to n seems to be the most important soil factor af...

Abstract Background This studies the influence of algae and coated urea fertilization on productivity some leguminous crops in order to reach best methods get highest sandy soils. Results The results proved that both yield its components a better result focus SCU + than utilizing sulfur-coated fertilizers seasons. A large amount extreme straw were established with treatment. outcomes uncovered ...
