in order to study the effect of mallow weed competition and nitrogen (n) rates on grain yield and yield components of wheat cv. chamran, a field experiment was conducted in 2009. the experiment was designed as a split-plot with three replications and additive series. the n application rates were assigned in the main-plots (50, 100, 150 and 200 kg.n.ha-1) and sub-plots consisted of target common...

Computer models have been widely used to evaluate the impact of agronomic management on nitrogen (N) dynamics in subsurface drained fields. However, they have not been evaluated as to their ability to capture the variability of nitrate-nitrogen (NO(3)-N) concentration in subsurface drainage at a wide range of N application rates due to possible errors in the simulation of other system component...

Abstract The intensification of crop production has been identified as one the major drivers environmental degradation. While significant advances could still be made with more widespread adoption sustainable technologies that address agronomic efficiency nitrogen fertilizers, dynamic use agricultural land across seasons and associated crop-specific responses to fertilizer applications have so ...

Seed cotton yield and fiber qualities may be significantly altered by a number of agronomic practices. The present study investigates the effect of nitrogen levels on cotton cultivar's seed cotton yield and fiber quality traits. Three cotton cultivars (NIAB-111, CIM496 and FH901) were tested against four nitrogen levels (0, 60, 120 and 180 kg ha) to check reliability, the highest yielding and g...

in order to evaluate efficiency of nitrogen fertilizers consumption in a sugar beet monogerm hybrid variety of zarghan, a field experiment was conducted in a loamy soil during 2007 in the research farm of sugar beet seed institute located in karaj. five levels of nitrogen fertilizers including 0 (check), 120, 160, 200 and 240 kg/ha of net nitrogen from urea fertilizer (46 percent of pure nitrog...

An assessment of the nitrogen fertilization efficiency should not only include quantitativeand qualitative yield changes, but also an analysis of formation some indicators such as: Nharvest index (NHI), N use efficiency (NUE), N utilization efficiency (NUtE), N agronomicefficiency (NAE), N physiological efficiency (NPE) and N apparent recovery fraction (NRF).The objective of the study was the e...

The effect of integrated use of mineral and organic N sources (farmyard manure, poultry manure, and Filter Cake) on yield and N uptake of wheat were assessed in biennial field experiment carried out on silty clay loam soil in Nuclear Institute for Food and Agriculture, Tarnab, Peshawar Pakistan during 2005-07. Combined dose of N provided from all sources was applied @120 kg ha-1. There were 17 ...

water deficit and low nitrogen content of soil are the two major yield limiting factors in most maize (zea mays l.) producing areas. the objective of the current research was to evaluate the relationships between photosynthetic water and nitrogen use efficiency at different levels of soil moisture and nitrogen contents. a factorial experiment, based on completely randomized design with 3 replic...

During hot seasons the inlet temperature of Nitrogen increases, as a result compressor consumes more power for compressing a specific mass ratio of fluid and consequently total energy consumption of the compressor increases as well. In this research, a three stage centrifugal compressor with intercooler was modeled thermodynamically in order to decreases the energy consumption of the compressor...
