a field study was conducted in qaen region using complete randomized blocks with three replications to study the effect of organic manure, zinc and boron on yield and yield components of millet and grain chemical composition. the treatments included factorial arrangement of municipal solid waste compost and cow manure (each at 25 ton ha-1), zn (0, 50 kg ha-1) and b (0, 10 kg ha-1) by using thei...

carbon dioxide is the most important resource for crop growth. in order to investigate the effect of elevated co2 concentration on morphological and physiological characteristics of sesame (sesamum indicum l.) and amaranthus (amaranthus retroflexus l.) an experiment was conducted in greenhouse conditions. the experiment was factorial based on randomized complete block design with six treatments...

BACKGROUND: Barley is one of the main important crops in the world, mainly used for animal feed and malt. OBJECTIVES: This study was conducted to evaluate the comparisons of seed yield and its components, phenological and physiological traits of different barley cultivars under Lorestan environmental condition. METHODS: Current rese...

Castor is one of neglected African oil crops with little research attention in Nigeria. In the present research, eighty-six castor genotypes were evaluated at three locations in Niger State, Nigeria. The aim was to estimate the extent of genetic variability and also to examine the associations among the seed yield and its components. The treatments were laid out in an Alpha Lattice Design with ...

This research involved in and coordinated multidisciplinary and complementary natural resources in the area of sustainable soil and plant nutrient management as well as economic benefits of edible herb production systems. The main concern was selection of the right growing media to achieve optimum yield and growth rate while avoiding application of synthetic fertilizers.Froriepia subpinnata is ...

Seventy genotypes of rice (Oryza sativa L.) were evaluated during Kharif 2012 to study the nature and extent of correlation among yield and yield attributing characters, days to 50 per cent flowering, days to maturity, number of effective tillers per plant, plant height, panicle length, number of grains per panicle, 1000-grain weight, grain yield per plant, kernel length, kernel breadth and L/B...
