In this study, the effects of nitrogen fertilizer and plant growth regulator (ethephon) application on leaf chlorophyl, stem height and diameter, stalk yield, total sugar and bioethanol of sweet sorghum were determined. Four nitrogen treatments 0, 100, 200 and 300 Kg Urea ha-1 and four ethephon concentrations 0, 800, 1000, and 1200 ppm were applied on sweet sorghum in a split plot on randomized...

A partially balanced changeover design experiment was undertaken to evaluate the effects of level of fish oil inclusion in the diet on rumen fermentation parameters and digestion with 10 beef cattle offered grass silage ad libitum as the basal forage supplemented with 5 kg concentrates headÿ1 dayÿ1. Concentrates were prepared to provide either 0 (T0), 150 (T150), 300 (T300) or 450 g (T450) fish...

improve forage quantity and quality using organic and biological fertilizers production of important needs in dryland farming systems of the country. in this study the effects of foliar application of four different combinations of amino acid four different time steps were germinated plant growth, stem elongation, flowering and spraying all three steps above with the control treatment was carri...

To gain the effects of N fertilizer applications on N2O emissions and local climate change in fertilized rubber (Hevea brasiliensis) plantations in the tropics, we measured N2O fluxes from fertilized (75 kg N ha(-1) yr(-1)) and unfertilized rubber plantations at Xishuangbanna in southwest China over a 2-year period. The N2O emissions from the fertilized and unfertilized plots were 4.0 and 2.5 k...

Corn silage serves as a high-energy forage for dairy cows. This is most important for high-producing herds and on farms experiencing problems with making or buying highquality hay crop forage. Corn silage, with its relatively highenergy content, is also well adapted for use in low-cost rations for fattening cattle. Corn silage requires less labor per ton to produce than many other forage crops....

The effects of nitrogen (N) addition on productive and physiological traits of Triticumdicoccum were assessed under two N levels (0, unfertilized, and 90 kg N ha−1) in fieldconditions, in two growing seasons. In the study case, the N supply (90 kg N ha−1) was appliedin three-split applications (20% at pre-plant stage, 40% at tillering stage, 40% at stemelongation). In unfertilized conditions, t...

The effect of water supply during grain growth on grain nitrogen concentration (GNC) and grain nitrogen yield (GNY) of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was studied in the field experiment on fertile loamy-clay soil in years 2004–2007. The water regime was differentiated using mobile rain shelter (water shortage, treatment S) and drip irrigation (ample water supply, treatment W); rain-fed cro...

in order to evaluate the effects of ethephon and nitrogen fertilizer on sweet sorghum cv. sofra, an experiment was conducted as split plot on a randomized complete block design with three replications at agricultural research station of isfahan university (isfahan, iran). experiment was conducted with four nitrogen levels (0, 100, 200 and 300 kg urea ha-1 from urea with 0, 46, 92 and 138 kg nit...
