to study the effect of sowing date and a single irrigation (si) on yield and yield components of barley, a field experiment was conducted in dryland agricultural research institute (maragheh, iran) in 2004-06 cropping seasons, using a split plot based on a randomized complete block design with 3 replications. main plots were assigned to 3 levels of sowing date (early, normal and late). sub-plot...

Corn (&a mays L.) growth has been shown to be affected by planting date and amount of residue on the soil surface. The objective of this study was to determine if the adverse effects of cool soil temperatures on early seedling growth often associated with surface residues can be overcome by planting at later dates. Corn was planted at several planting dates (late April through early June) into ...
