in order to study the effects of sugar cane harvest machinery traffic on bulk density and cone index variation, a survey was conducted in 10 farms of deabel khozaiee sugarcane agro-industrial company, ahvaz, in 2006. in this experiment, two types of harvesters including wheel half track and tire wheels with 14 tons of weight, versus two types of tractor and basket transporters, with 10 and 18 t...

An alumina-supported nickel catalyst has been used to effect the ‘dry’ reforming of methane, using CO2 as the oxidant. After 6 hours on-stream, reaction was stopped and the sample analysed by inelastic neutron scattering (INS). The INS spectrum reveals the presence of hydrocarbonaceous species as well as hydroxyl species present at the catalyst surface. Through the use of appropriate reference ...

Harvest index is a measure of success in partitioning assimilated photosynthate. An improvement of harvest index means an increase in the economic portion of the plant. Our objective was to identify genetic markers associated with harvest index traits using 203 O. sativa accessions. The phenotyping for 14 traits was conducted in both temperate (Arkansas) and subtropical (Texas) climates and the...

in order to determine the appropriate plant density of spotted bean in yasouj, a field experiment was conducted in 2008 as a factorial in a randomized complete block design with three replications. three spotted bean cultivars (keshavarzi, talash and oshtori) were sown at five plant densities (10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 plant.m-2). results showed that effect of plant density, cultivar and interactio...

according to urgent need of corn to nitrogen and since this element play a main role in improving of yield corn, thus, in order to investigate the effect of different levels of urea on yield and yield components of corn 704, an experiment was conducted randomized block with three replications in cropping year of 2012. experimental treatments included six levels of urea (0, 30, 60, 90, 120 and 1...

a field study was conducted to evaluate the agronomic response of eight isolines of cv. clark on a clay loam soil (at karaj-iran, 35048´) to four plant population densities of 11.3, 18.5, 68.5, and 103.4 plants per square metre. significant yield increase was obtained as a result of higher plant density. differences among the cv. clark isolines were significant (p

Grain yield and yield components of winter wheat were recorded during 2-year field trials in Southern Bavaria, Germany. The impact of single ear sink size on the efficiency of grain production was studied in plants differing in single ear weight. While total grain yield showed only slight differences between N fertiliser treatments, significant variations were detected in harvest index and N ha...
