to study the effect of strip intercropping pattern with cowpea and soybean on sorghum fodder yield an experiment was conducted at research farm of university of tehran (karaj) during 2005. the experiment was arranged in a randomized complete block design of four replications. the plant proportions included pure culture of sorghum (sss); cowpea (ccc) and soybean (ggg) each in 12 rows; vs differe...

Soybean (Glycine max Merr.) is the world's most widely grown leguminous crop and an important source of protein and oil for food and feed. Soybean yields have increased substantially throughout the past century, with yield gains widely attributed to genetic advances and improved cultivars as well as advances in farming technology and practice. Yet, the physiological mechanisms underlying the hi...

in order to investigate the efficacy of split, reduced and whole rates of oxyfluorfen in controlling redroot pigweed (amarnthus retroflexus) and also to evaluate possible soybean (glycine max) injuries a experiment was conducted in research greenhouses of karaj collage of agriculture, university of tehran in 2005. treatments included oxyfluorfen doses at 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1 l/ha in one stage ...

Timing, intensity, and frequency of biomass removal PREDICTING YIELD LOSS IN affects soybean yield. Yield reduction is less sensitive INDETERMINATE SOYBEAN FROM to biomass removal during vegetative growth because soybean can develop new leaf area that can compensate POD DENSITY USING SIMULATED for temporarily reduced assimilatory capacity. Singer DAMAGE STUDIES (2001) reported that yield reduct...

in order to evaluate intercropping of soybean (glycine max l. cv. jk) with sweet basil (ocimum basilicum l.) and borage (borago officinalis l.) with weed interference, an experiment was performed in randomized complete block design with 12 treatments and three replications at a field located 10 km of shirvan during year of 2011. the treatments were included 75% soybean: 25%sweet basil, 50%soybe...

to yield reductions (Higley, 1992; Hunt et al., 1994; Haile et al., 1998). Hunt et al. (1994) concluded that removal Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] producers in many regions of of leaf area delayed the time to achieve a critical leaf the USA are confronted with significant yield losses because of crop damage from white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus). Our objecarea index (LAI) of 3.5, li...

crop rotation is one of the essential practices in sustainable agricultural systems, be-cause of its effects on soil fertility and other benefits including a reduction in weed compe-tition. a field experiment was conducted at chaparsar rice research station, tonekabon, iran, from 2002 to 2003 to assess the influence of crop rotation, time of planting, and till-age depth on rice (oryza sativa l....
