in order to evaluate the effects of different organic and chemical fertilizers on yield, yield components and seed oil content of sesame an experiment was conducted in a split plot layout based on randomized complete block design with four replications at research station, faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad in year 2006. four types of fertilizer, including chemical fertilize...

In order to investigate the appropriate combination of chemical and bio-fertilizers and their effectiveness on corn seed yield while defoliating the upper leaves of the ear, a randomized complete block design experiment with four replications. Fertilizer treatments were applied at four levels including 100% urea, 75% urea + 100% Nitroxin, 50% urea + 100% Nitroxin, 25% urea + 100% Nitroxin. In h...

in order to study the effect of chemical and biological fertilizers on silage corn under different plant densities, a split plot experiment was carried out in a randomized completely block design with three replicates in south western iran. the main plot included nitrogen fertilizer treatment at three levels (n1: with out chemical and organic fertilizers, n2: 75% chemical fertilizer + 100% orga...

We have tested acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) inhibitory activities of nineteen essential oils obtained from cultivated plants, namely one from Anethum graveolens L. (organic fertilizer), two from Foeniculum vulgare Mill. collected at fully-mature and flowering stages (organic fertilizer), two from Melissa officinalis L. (cultivated using organic and chemical ferti...

An experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design with three replications and 14 fertilizer treatments in year 2014. The treatments were including the control, application of chemical fertilizers according the soil analysis, application of 15, 30 and 45 tons of municipal  waste compost per ha as simple and with 25, 50 and 75% of chemical fertilizers. The results revealed that the ...

Nitrate concentrations of groundwater are increasing in residential areas. One probable cause is input of nitrogen fertilizers to maintain healthy turfgrass. This study was conducted to evaluate differences in nitrate concentrations in soil water between sites fertilized with chemical or organic fertilizer. To obtain nitrate concentrations leaching below turfgrass and evaluate the impact to gro...

The increasing intensification of aquaculture production requires the development strategies to reduce its environmental impacts such as pollution caused by discharge nutrient-rich sediments into local water bodies. This research was undertaken investigate and evaluate effect using organic fertilizers produced from pond sludge freshwater snakehead fish ( Channa striata ) composted with amendmen...

BACKGROUND: Nitrogen is a basic plant component, playing a decisive role in the intensification of plant production. Bio-fertilizers play a very significant role in improving soil fertility by fixing atmospheric nitrogen, both, in association with plant roots and without it, insoluble soil phosphates and produces plant growth substances in the soil. OBJECTIVES:</s...

Increased fertilizer input in agricultural systems during the last few decades has resulted in large yield increases, but also in environmental problems. We used data from published papers and a soil testing and fertilization project in Shaanxi province during the years 2005 to 2009 to analyze chemical fertilizer inputs and yields of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and maize (Zea mays L.) on the f...

The surface mining activities in the past and in recent times has resulted into existence of number of overburden dumps through excavation and depositing removed soil and rock debris. These dumps require environmental stabilization/restoration, through proper revegetation. To achieve this aim, a study was conducted to find the efficacy of Mung bean (Vigna radiata L.), an economically important ...
