in order to evaluate the effects of organic fertilizer complements application (aminol forte, fosnutren and kadostim) on grain yield, milling properties and nitrogen use efficiency of two rice (oryza sativa l.) cultivars, a field experiment in factorial layout and a randomized complete block design with 10 treatments and 3 replications was conducted at rice research institute of iran in 2009. t...

application of biofertilizers is a crucial technique for reducing catastrophic effects of irregular utilization of chemical fertilizers. this experiment was carried out to evaluate the effects of rhizobium strains and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) on dry matter partitioning and some growth parameters of chickpea (cicer arientinum l.), arman cultivar. this research was conducted as...

Growing fruit trees on the slopes of rolling hills in South China was causing serious environmental problems because of heavy application of chemical fertilizers and soil erosion. Suitable sources of fertilizers and proper rates of applications were of key importance to both crop yields and environmental protection. In this article, the impact of four fertilizers, i.e., inorganic compound ferti...

Chilli (Capsicum annuum L.) is one of the most valuable cash crops in Sri Lanka. The purpose study was to develop a chilli growing domestic model by synergizing effects growth media and fertilizers on yield performances. This experiment carried out for variety MICH 3 laid using randomized complete block design with two factors, namely, grow bag packages fertilizers, four replicates. consisted l...

This chapter provides information on some recent developments of fertilizer production and use that improve nutrient efficiency and minimize environmental impact. The nutrients discussed are mainly N, P, and S. Improving N nutrient efficiency includes use of (1) controlled-release coated urea products, (2) slowrelease urea–aldehyde polymer products, (3) urea supergranules for deep placement, (4...

Effects of different levels of compost application on the amounts and percentage distribution of organic N forms in whole soils and particle size fractions were investigated. Soil samples were collected from three plots: a) F, only chemical fertilizers; b) F + LC, chemical fertilizers plus low level of compost; (c) F + HC, chemical fertilizers plus high level of compost. Each soil sample was di...

in order to investigate the effect of organic and chemical fertilizers on growth characteristics of marjoram, a factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad during 2012-2013 growing season. treatments were comprised of four urea levels (0, 21.7, 108.7 and 195.7 kg.ha-1) a...

Agricultural applications of chemical fertilizers are a world wide practice. The specific activity of uranium-238 and heavy metals in phosphate fertilizers depends on the phosphate ore from which the fertilizer produced and on the chemical processing of the ore. Composite phosphate fertilizers samples where collected and the uranium-238 specific activity, in Bq/kg, and As, Cd, Cu, Pb, Se concen...
