Strong benefits of species diversity have been demonstrated in mixed cropping on rangelands. In order to determine the best composition of mixed cropping of alfalfa (Medicago sativa) with three cool season grass species (Agropyron elongatum, Agropyron desertorum and Festuca arundinacea), on yield and quality traits, an experiment was conducted during two years (2009 and 2010) in Bojnourd, Iran....

a randomized complete block design with four replications and a split plot arrangement was conducted in 2010, in order to study the effect of limited irrigation on yield and yield component of sweet corn. water levels were (100%, 80%, and 60% replacement of plant water requirement) which served as main plots. subplot was a factorial arrangement of three different sweet corn varieties (merit, ob...

peppermint (mentha piperita l.) from lamiaceae family is one of the most important medicinal plants, used in food, sanitary and cosmetic industries. a field experiment was carried out in ferdowsi university of mashhad in 2010-2011 to evaluate the effects of three irrigation levels (100, 80 and 60 percent of water requirements calculated by evaporation pan class a) and two mulch types (black pla...

in order to investigate the effect of water deficit irrigation and natural products on vegetative characteristics of three varieties of chickpea, a field experiment was performed as split-split plot experiment in a randomized complete block design with three replications during 2011 growing season in shahrood (miami). the main plot was drought stress in four levels including normal irrigation (...
