Increasing production and productivity of shallots currently must be done by expanding the area shallot planting. The expansion planting in Jambi is constrained Ultisol land which has low soil fertility. This study aims to look at response application cow dung trichocompost doses, get a dose will provide most effective growth yield shallots. research design used was randomized block (RBD) with ...

This study aimed to examine the effect of vermicompost in increasing melon growth and yield obtain a dose that was able provide best yield. The research design used Randomized Block Design (RBD) with one factor, namely consisting of: 0 tonha-1; 5 15 25 35 tonha-1. results showed application increased plant length, number leaves, leaf area, stem diameter, fruit weight per plants. gave tonha-1, 1...

Present-day understanding of rill dynamics is hampered by a lack of detailed data on velocity distributions in rills. The latter are difficult to collect with traditional techniques due to the very low water depths and the relatively high flow velocities in rills. The objectives of this paper were to investigate the feasibility of miniaturized acoustic Doppler velocimeter (mADV) measurements in...

This research focused on rill formation, rill density, and associated flow velocity distribution in rills at the field level and with different tillage treatments in the inland Pacific Northwest. The study was conducted by applying flow at three different rates under winter conditions, which provides the greatest potential for rill formation. The following tillage treatments were tested: chisel...

Experimental studies provide a basis for understanding the mechanisms of rill erosion and can provide estimates for parameter values in physical models simulating the erosion process. In this study, we investigated sediment delivery during rill erosion in purple soil. We used the volume-replacement method to measure the volume of eroded soil and hence estimate the mass of eroded soil. A 12 m ar...

Rill erosion is an important process that occurs on hill slopes, including sloped farmland. Laboratory simulations have been vital to understanding rill erosion. Previous experiments obtained sediment yields using rills of various lengths to get the sedimentation process, which disrupted the continuity of the rill erosion process and was time-consuming. In this study, an improved experimental m...

estimation of the amount of soil loss measurement of field indicators is a low-cost method, is easy to learn and can be simply applied. in order to measure and make assessment of soil loss amount by field indicators method in shahrak watershed, first map of the work units was prepared and then, measurements of the relevant field indicators were carried out within these units. then, epm model wa...

Quantifying critical conditions of rill formation can be useful for a better understanding of soil erosion processes. Current studies lack a consensus and related rationale on how to describe these conditions. This study was based on the concepts that (1) the shear stress available for erosion at any given point is a function of the runoff rate, the slope steepness, and hydraulic characteristic...

Abstract Sorghum is an important food security crop in Ethiopia. As the grain preferred for biomass equally farmers to use it as animal food. It a major lowland parts of eastern Amhara environment area best fits crop. The study was conducted with objective identifying high yielder and adaptable sorghum varieties moisture deficit areas region. Eleven genotypes including two checks were evaluated...
