The aim of this study was to determine the effect of mineral fertilization on the activity of alkaline and acid phosphatase and content of available phosphorus in soil under winter wheat cultivation. The fi rst factor of experiment was the fertilization with P, K, Mg, Ca and S in six levels: 1 (P, K, Mg, Ca and S), 2 (K, Mg, Ca and S), 3 (P, Mg, Ca and S), 4 (P, K, Ca and S), 5 (P, K, Mg, Ca), ...

This paper presents the effect of soil supplementation with urea and magnesium on nitrogen uptake and its utilization by two different types of hybrid maize cultivars. Based on the results of 3-year fertilization studies, it was shown that for average volume of grain yield of maize, nitrogen content in grain dry matter and nitrogen uptake with its yield was significantly determined by the doses...

a field experiment was conducted in order to study the effect of nitrogen fertilizer and plant density on yield and quality of maize (zea mays l.) cultivar, mv500 silage as second crop. this study was conducted in agricultural research station of kurdistan university during 2012 growing season. the experiment was laid out as split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replic...

The photocatalytic activity of beta-Ge(3)N(4) powder for overall water splitting is successfully enhanced by ammonia treatment at 823 K for 5-24 h at ammonia pressures of 20 MPa or greater. The surface and bulk nitrogen content in the treated samples varies according to the treatment temperature and treatment time, related to the stability of beta-Ge(3)N(4) powder under pressurized ammonia. The...

OBJECTIVE We assessed the effect of germinating Pisum sativum L. variant Arvense cv. Esla for 3 and 6 d in darkness on the chemical composition and nutritive utilization of protein and carbohydrates. METHODS Nutritional assessment of protein and carbohydrates was based on chemical analysis of raw and germinated pea flours and in vitro and in vivo rat balance methodologies. RESULTS Germinati...

In order to study the effect of vermicompost and nitrogen fixing bacteria on seed yield, yield components of seed and essential oil content of coriander (Coriandrum sativum), an experiment was conducted as factorial experiment in the base of randomized complete blocks design with eight treatments and three replications at research field of Agriculture Company of Ran in Firouzkuh of Iran in 2012...

Within the field of materials science, high-nitrogen compounds represent an important class of energetic materials. As a result of the existence of a large number of inherently energetic N N or N=N bonds within the molecules, highnitrogen compounds possess very high positive heats of formation, thereby making them intrinsically high-energy materials. The energy of most compounds with high-nitro...

The Soil Plant Analysis Development (SPAD) chlorophyll meter is one of the most commonly used diagnostic tools to measure crop nitrogen status. However, the measurement method of the meter could significantly affect the accuracy of the final estimation. Thus, this research was undertaken to develop a new methodology to optimize SPAD meter measurements in rice (Oryza sativa L.). A flatbed color ...

Optimum band and band combination for retrieving total nitrogen, water and fiber content in tealeaves with remote sensing data is investigated based on regressive analysis. Based on actual measured data of total nitrogen, fiber and water content in tealeaves as well as remotely sensed visible to near infrared reflectance data with 5nm of wavelength steps and ASTER/VNIR onboard Terra satellite, ...
