effect of different amounts of foliar- and soil- applied n were evaluated in a factorial arrangement of rcbd with three replications at the agricultural research station of gorgan in 2004-2005 growing season. two promising lines of bread wheat, two levels of foliar application of nitrogen (0 and 5%) at tillering and booting stage, with five rates of 0, 45, 90, 135 and 180kg n/ha as urea were us...

The effects of foliar absorbed nutrients on root processes related to assimilation of nitrogen under presence or absence of molybdenum (Mo) were studied. Pea plants (Pisum sativum L.), var. Avola were grown until the 15th day in a glasshouse on liquid nutrient solution both without and with Mo added to the media. Plants were inoculated with bacterial suspension of Rhizobuium leguminosarum bv. V...

certainly not a new concept to the citrus industry. For more than five decades, foliar fertilization of citrus has been recommended to correct zinc, manganese, boron, copper and magnesium deficiencies. It is now common knowledge in agriculture that properly nourished crops may tolerate insect pests and diseases. Traditionally, citrus growers try to achieve optimum nutrition through direct soil ...

an experiment with randomized complete block design with 3 replications was carried out in the rice research institute of iran, rasht, during 2008 to study the effect of supplement foliar application of nitrogen (5% n) and potassium (3% k2o) at different growth stages (maximum tillering stage, booting stage, and both of them) on grain quality and nitrogen efficiency of hybrid rice, c.v. bahar-1...

There seems to be conflicting information about foliar fertilizers and their timing of application to cotton. Much of the confusion lies in the variety of fertilizer products available. A cotton fanner now has a choice of applying foliar fertilizers (according to fertilizer labels) beginning at the first true leaf stage and continuing until defoliation. This newsletter will focus on available i...
