Biosolids are utilized as nutrient rich fertilizer. Little material is available on benefits to forage crops resulting from fertilization with biosolids. This paper aimed to compare the effects of fertilization with biosolids versus commercial nitrogen fertilizer on growth, root formation, and nutrient value of triticale plants in a greenhouse experiment. Per treatment, five pots were seeded wi...

A field study was conducted on hummocky terrain at the Manitoba Zero Tillage Association Research Farm near Brandon, Manitoba, Canada to determine the variability of crop yield as related to landscape position, soil properties, weed populations and plant disease. This information was used to develop a method for delineation of management units related to precision farming. Variable-rate fertili...

a field study was conducted at abourehan research farm of tehranuniversityin 2009 to find out the effects of slow releasing nitrogen from pellet fertilizer of nitrogen and manure on grain yield and some physiological characteristics of corn (single cross 704). the factorial design of the study comprised of randomized complete block with three replications. factors this experiment involved: firs...

Field experiments evaluated the effects of nematicide and fertility on performance of 'Tifway 419' bermudagrass parasitized by the sting nematode (Belonolaimus longicaudatus). Plot treatments were nontreated or nematicide (1,3-dichloropropene) treated combined with different nitrogen (N) fertilizer levels. Effects of treatments on numbers of B. longicaudatus and turf performance were compared. ...

this research was conducted under greenhouse conditions to evaluate the optimum combination of irrigation and fertilizer levels to attain the best yield and quality of tomato crop. the experiment was conducted by using a split-plot design with three replicates. irrigation levels were applied to the main plots and fertilizer levels to the sub-plots. for each experimental unit, the irrigation lev...

in order to investigate the effect of irrigation and nitrogen fertilizer on yield and yield components of (anethum graveolens l.), a field experiment was performed in agricultural research farm of the university of tabriz, iran, during growing season of 2009-2010. the experiment was carried out as split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications. irrigation treatment...

Three-year-old citrus trees were grown in the greenhouse to study the effects of fertilizer concentration and root herbivory on plant growth and mineral concentration. In separate experiments, sour orange (Citrus aurantium L.) and Swingle citrumelo (C. paradisi Macf. Poncirus trifoliate L.) plants were treated with a complete fertilizer diluted to provide 25, 100, 200, or 400 ppm N and grown fo...
