Maize grain yield varies highly with water availability as well as with fertilization and relevant agricultural management practices. With a 311-A optimized saturation design, field experiments were conducted between 2006 and 2009 to examine the yield response of spring maize (Zhengdan 958, Zea mays L) to irrigation (I), nitrogen fertilization (total nitrogen, urea-46% nitrogen,) and phosphorus...

the higher levels of essential elements in soil may be caused in optimum yields and crop quality. so it seems to be necessary to examine different levels of nutrients like fe and zn on plants and their productivity. to evaluate effects of iron and zinc application on yield and yield components of pimpinella anisum an experiment was conducted at the research farm of urmia university in 2009. tre...

To survey the effects of chemical and biological phosphorus on the yield and essential oil of Satureja hortensis L. as an important medicinal plant, factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replicates at Research Station of Faculty of Agriculture, Urmia University in 2011. The treatments were chemical phosphorus fertilizer with four levels (0, 50, ...

Increasing attention is being paid to use of organic fertilizers such as manure and vermicompost which can increased yield and protect the environment. Replacing chemical fertilizers with manures has the benefit of low production cost and imparts beneficial effects on soil. Then an experiment was conducted during 2013 to measure effects of organic fertilizers on essential oil of dill (Anethum g...

In this study the effect of four levels of nitrogen fertilizer (0, 50, 100, 150) kg/ha and four levels of super phosphate triple (0, 50, 100, 150) kg/ha were investigated on Rubia Inctorum L. (madder) under salinity stress. A factorial experiment was carried out in a research farm in Roaddasht, Isfahan based on complete randomized blocks with three replications. The results of the variance anal...

in order to study the effect of foliar zinc spraying on photosynthetic pigments and yield of chickpea under water stress conditions, a factorial experiment carried out based on randomized completely block design (rcbd) with three replications in university of mohaghegh ardabili agricultural research station in 2012. the treatments consisted of three levels of irrigation (irrigated at planting, ...

to evaluate the yield components, yield and land equivalent ratio affected by relay intercropping of sunflower (helianthus annuus l.) with faba bean (vicia faba l.), a field experiment was arranged based on a randomized complete block design with three replications at the agricultural research station payamenoor university of nagadeh, iran during growing reason of 2012-2013. the treatments incl...

introduction cultivation of medicinal plants in agricultural ecosystems plays an important role in the diversification and sustainability of these systems (rezaei-chiyaneh & dabbagh mohammadi nassab, 2014). therefore, the application of ecological principles such as multi-ship system seems essential in the production of these plants. zarifpour et al. (2014) in intercropping arrangements of cumi...
