one of the most important issues affecting environmental health and sustainable food production is application of organic fertilizers instead of chemical fertilizers. this study set out to investigate the effect of application of soil humic acid and fulvic acid on barley plant. to this end a factorial experiment was carried out on the basis of randomized complete block design with four replicat...

to investigate the effects of drought stress and different combinations of animal manure with super absorbent polymer on yield and yield components of corn, a split plots design was conducted based on a randomized complete block design with 3 replications in fars agricultural research center in 2007. irrigation treatments were assigned as the main factor in three levels: 70, 105 and 140 mm evap...

in order to study the effect of different levels of the manure and foliar application of zn and mn fertilizers on the quantitative and qualitative yield of soybeans (var. williams), a factorial experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design with three replications in 2012. treatments involved three levels of fertilizer: manure (zero as control; six and 12 t/ha), two levels of mn...

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...

in recent years, in order to enhance the health of agroecosystems, concerns on ecological inputs especially to produce medicinal plants, has been increased. in order to evaluate the effects of winter cover crops on pgprs activities and soil nitrogen content in simultaneous application of organic manures and biological fertilizer in a low input production system of cucurbita pepo under minimum t...

in order to evaluate the effects of irrigation levels and foliar application with fe and zn on quantitative and qualitative traits of red bean, an experiment was designed as split plot based on a completely randomized block design with three replications in lordegan country in summer 2011. irrigation as the main plot at three level such on: irrigation after 50, 75 and 100 mm evaporation, and fo...

the main purpose of this study was to determine factors influencing the adoption of biological control by paddy farmers. the population consisted of paddy farmers in saricounty. sampling of 260 farmers was selected by using proportional random sampling method. data were collected by means of a questionnaire. validity of questionnaire was confirmed by agricultural jihad experts of saricounty and...

environmental problems associated with the excessive use of chemical fertilizers and abiotic stresses due to soil pollution by heavy metals have encouraged use of biological fertilizers in modern agriculture. in order to protect environment and reduce the tension caused by heavy metals, it is essential to use biofertilizer in crop production. to assess the effects of biofertilizers on yield and...

Bio-fertilizers are naturally occurring soil bacteria that aggressively colonize plant roots and benefit plants by providing growth promotion. This investigation was aimed at determining the effect of Nitroxin bio-fertilizer application on growth, inoculation and yield production of corn hybrids. An experiment was conducted as split plot on the basis of randomized complete block design with fou...
