in order to evaluate a better sowing date of chickpea cultivars in dry land conditions, a factorial experiment in randomized complete block design with four replications was carried out at research station of bahar (hamadan province) during 2005-2006 cropping season. two planting time included winter and spring and four chickpea cultivars (cvs.) including one local (check) and three improved cv...

introductionthe use of climatic and natural variables in the regulation of agricultural activities has a particular importance. of the important characteristics of climate are the onset and retreat dates of main rainy season which have a determining role in the agricultural activities such as seeding time, cultivation period and other agricultural programs and strategies like irrigation. iran r...

The basic requirements for small scale cropping machines are, they should be suitable for small farms, simple in design and technology and versatile for use in different farm operations. A manually operated template row planter was designed and developed to improve planting efficiency and reduce drudgery involved in manual planting method. Seed planting is also possible for different size of se...

The sensitivity of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] main stem node accrual to ambient temperature has been documented in greenhousegrown plants but not with fi eld-grown plants in the north-central United States. Biweekly V-node and R-stage, stem node number, internode length, and other traits were quantifi ed in an irrigated split-plot, four-replicate, randomized complete block experiment cond...
