Cocksfoot (Dactylis glomerata L.) is an important cool season grass species in the moderate climate of Iran. In order to evaluate the yield and quality traits, an experiment was conducted in irrigation conditions using 36 accessions of Dactylis glomerata using a randomized complete block design with three replications in Islamabad, Kermanshah province, Iran in 2010. Characters such as forage dr...

the high yield depends on high dry matter production per unit area. azotobacter bio-fertilizer experiment to investigate the effect on the index, total dry matter accumulation and pishtaz and chamran wheat cultivars in 2005 was conducted in the faculty of agriculture, lorestan university. experiment, a split-plot randomized complete blocks design with four replicates were tested. treatments con...

five levels of salicylic acid (sa), (0, 2, 4, 6 & 8 mm) were sprayed on strawberry cv. comarosa fruit bearing plants in a hydroponic culture. growth, yield & fruit quality attributes were assessed. vegetative characteristics (crown number, root & shoot weight), reproductive traits (yield, fruit number as well as shape), fruit quality, macro elements (ca, mg, k & p), dry weight & ash were evalua...

Rice-rice system and rice fallows are no longer productive in Southeast Asia. Crop and varietal diversification of the rice based cropping systems may improve the productivity and profitability of the systems. Diversification is also a viable option to mitigate the risk of climate change. In Eastern India, farmers cultivate rice during rainy season (June-September) and land leftovers fallow aft...

this experiment was conducted for estimating the effect of row spacing and plant density on soil moisture change, wheat yield and water use efficiency in rainfed condition, using a three replicated randomized complete block design with factorial arrangement at gorgan university of agricultural sciences and natural resources farm in anbare-ololum region in 2008-2009. the treatments that used wer...

A mathematical model is developed for converting between the two measurement bases commonly used in the construction of growth profiles in solid-state fermentation, namely absolute mass ratio m(dry biomass)/m(initial dry matter) and relative mass ratio m(dry biomass)/m(dry matter). These are not equivalent, due to the loss of dry matter as CO2 during the fermentation. The model is equally appli...

AKDAG, F., O. CADIRCI and B. SIRIKEN, 2010. Effect of estrus on milk yield and composition in Jersey cows. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 16: 783-787 This study was performed to demonstrate the effect of estrus on milk yield and composition in Jersey. In this study, 15 jersey cows which were at the same estrus period, in the third lactation period and breeding under uniform housing and feeding condition...
