in order to determine the effects of applied phosphate bio-fertilizer on yield and morphological traits of wheat, a research was conducted in sari agricultural sciences and natural resources university during 2008-2010. a factorial experiment was performed based on randomized complete block design with four replications. the first factor consists of two levels of phosphate bio-fertilizer (0 and...

To survey the effects of chemical and biological phosphorus on the yield and essential oil of Satureja hortensis L. as an important medicinal plant, factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replicates at Research Station of Faculty of Agriculture, Urmia University in 2011. The treatments were chemical phosphorus fertilizer with four levels (0, 50, ...

A study was conducted at Bunda College during the 2003/04 crop season to assess the effect of fertilizer application practices on performance of maize with emphasis on improving the efficiency of using urea as a top dressing fertilizer The treatments were laid out as a split-plot in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with maize varieties as main plots and fertilizer application practices...

The influence of inorganic fertilizer application on the flavonoid, phenol and steroid content of the leaves of Ocimum gratissimum and Gongronema latifolium was investigated. Cultivated O. gratissimum and G. latifolium were treated with NPK (15:15:15) inorganic fertilizer at 100 kg/ha, 200 kg/ha, 300 kg/ha, 400 kg/ha and 500 kg/ha treatment levels in plastic planting buckets derived using the f...

An investigation of the proximate composition and antioxidant profile of pumpkin seeds obtained from different levels of NPK 15 : 15 : 15 compound fertilizer application at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria was carried out. Pumpkin seeds were grown in 2010 for two cropping seasons (May to August and August to November), and the following fertilizer rates were applied: 0, 50, 100,...

This paper summarizes a series of field experiments that investigated the effects of organic and inorganic nutrients on sweet potato tuber yield in the humid lowlands of Papua New Guinea. In the first experiment, plots were planted with Piper aduncum, Gliricidia sepium and Imperata cylindrica, which were slashed after one year, whereafter sweet potato was planted. Sweet potato yield was lowest ...

A study was done to determine the macroand micronutrient requirements of young northern highbush blueberry plants (Vaccinium corymbosum L. ‘Bluecrop’) during the first 2 years of establishment and to examine how these requirements were affected by the amount of nitrogen (N) fertilizer applied. The plants were spaced 1.2 · 3.0 m apart and fertilized with 0, 50, or 100 kg ha of N, 35 kg ha of pho...
