The surface mining activities in the past and in recent times has resulted into existence of number of overburden dumps through excavation and depositing removed soil and rock debris. These dumps require environmental stabilization/restoration, through proper revegetation. To achieve this aim, a study was conducted to find the efficacy of Mung bean (Vigna radiata L.), an economically important ...

Few systematic studies have been carried out on integrated N balance in extremely arid oasis agricultural areas. A two-year field experiment was conducted to evaluate the N input and output balances under long-term fertilization conditions. Five treatments were chosen, namely CK (no fertilizer), NPK, NPKS (10% straw return N and 90% chemical N), NPKM (one third urea-N, two thirds sheep manure) ...

in recent years, surplus usage of chemical fertilizers and inattention the importance organic matter to improve soil fertility, leading to increasing use of chemical fertilizer, environmental pollution and etc. in order to study the different fertilizer levels (organic, chemical and combined) on yield of grain corn (s.c.704) experiment was conducted at the research farm faculty of agriculture t...

Nitrogen management continues to be diffi cult due to transformations of nitrogen fertilizers that are possible when applied to soil and the uncertainties of weather (Cabrera et al., 2008). Nitrogen (N) fertilizer in the form of urea is subject to ammonia volatilization through the activity of the urease enzyme found ubiquitously in soil (Kissel et al., 2008). Nitrate fertilizer is subject to l...

the high yield depends on high dry matter production per unit area. azotobacter bio-fertilizer experiment to investigate the effect on the index, total dry matter accumulation and pishtaz and chamran wheat cultivars in 2005 was conducted in the faculty of agriculture, lorestan university. experiment, a split-plot randomized complete blocks design with four replicates were tested. treatments con...

In order to investigate the appropriate combination of chemical and bio-fertilizers and their effectiveness on corn seed yield while defoliating the upper leaves of the ear, a randomized complete block design experiment with four replications. Fertilizer treatments were applied at four levels including 100% urea, 75% urea + 100% Nitroxin, 50% urea + 100% Nitroxin, 25% urea + 100% Nitroxin. In h...

β-glucosidase is involved in the degradation of cellulose in soil and has the potential for monitoring biological soil quality. the objective of this study was to determine the effects of barley residue placement, burning, nitrogen fertilizer and tillage management on β-glucosidase enzyme after a period of 90 days. a field experiment was carried out based on a completely randomized design with ...
