Grain sorghum silage tannin content effect was evaluated on milk production and chemical composition of Argentinean Holstein bred cows, and it are described dry matter (DM) and crude protein (CP) in situ digestion parameters and effective degradability. The base diet was constituted by alfalfa pasture, maize silage, and a protein – mineral supplement, differing in three treatments based on high...

the effect of concentration and time of supplementary nitrogen fertilizer spray application on grain yield and nitrogen use efficiency in rapeseed (hyola401) as a second crop in paddy fields were evaluated in a field experiment conducted in randomized complete block design with 3 replications at rice research institute of iran (rasht) in 2008. in this experiment two factors, concentration of so...

Dehydration of maize grains in the field can reduce costs associated with drying after harvest. A delayed harvest approach physiological maturity, which plants stand to allow stems dry, has been widely adopted production. However, it remains unclear how harvesting at different time points during dehydration stage may affect grain yield and quality. In present study, experiments were conducted N...

introduction drought stress as the most important abiotic stress plays an important role in yield reduction of crops worldwide. considering the extends and problems caused by the moisture stress, agronomic and breeding strategies in reducing yield loss are essential. in this regard, the identification and selection of effective characteristics of wheat under drought stress in increasing yield, ...

organic fertilizers such as vermicompost (vc) are an undeniable source of required nutrients of plants. this field experiment performed as split plot arrangement based a randomized complete block design with three replications in 2008. the main factors (vermicompost treatments) added to soil at six levels including 20 and 40 ton.ha-1, 20 and 40 ton.ha-1 plus (1/2) chemical fertilizer, chemical ...

green fig, a fruit usually consumed as dried is one of the important non-oil export agricultural commodities of iran. physical properties of green fig are vital parameters as regards the design of such post harvest processing equipments as dryers, sorters and storing chambers. in this research work the effect of moisture content on fruit characteristic dimensions, geometric mean diameter, spher...

To evaluate the genetic diversity in twenty barley genotypes, an experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was done at Agriculture Researches Station of Ardabil, Iran in 2009-10. Investigated traits of this study was included days to flowering, plant height, 1000 seed weight, number of infertile tiller, number of seed per spike, harvest index, days to maturity...

concerning limitation of water resources, determination of the least water that can lead to the maximum yield is of great importance in crop production. in order to evaluate effects of deficit irrigation on grain yield and water use efficiency of some wheat )triticum aestivum) cultivars under different climatic conditions, two similar field experiments were conducted in 2004 in agricultural res...
