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...

Rashid, M. T., Voroney, P. and Parkin, G. 2005. Predicting nitrogen fertilizer requirements for corn by chlorophyll meter under different N availability conditions. Can. J. Soil Sci. 85: 149–159. Nitrogen management strategies that enhance fertilizer use efficiency and maximize profitability in corn require a rapid and accurate method to determine the crop N needs of current hybrids. The object...

The bacterial community and diversity in mulberry field soils with different application ages of inorganic nitrogen fertilizer (4Y, 4-year-old; 17Y, 17-year-old; 32Y, 32-year- old) were investigated using next-generation sequencing. The results demonstrated that the application ages of nitrogen fertilizer significantly altered soil bacterial community and diversity. Soil bacterial Shannon diver...

Nitrogen fertilizer use across the world’s croplands enables high-yielding agricultural production, but does so at considerable environmental cost. Imbalances between nitrogen applied and nitrogen used by crops contributes to excess nitrogen in the environment, with negative consequences for water quality, air quality, and climate change. Here we utilize crop input-yield models to investigate h...

The production of corn or soybeans for bio-based fuels and materials requires significant inputs of nitrogen (FN) and phosphorus fertilizer (FP) to increase grain yields. Approximately 50% of these nutrients are integrated into plant biomass. The remaining 50% is volatilized, leached into surface and groundwater, or transformed into gaseous species such as N2, NO, or N2O. Recent efforts to comp...

in order to investigate the effects of drought stress and nitrogen fertilizer on photosynthesis rate and some physiological characteristics in two barley cultivars, a pot experiment was conducted using a randomized complete block design as a factorial experiment with three factors including water stress, nitrogen fertilizer and barley cultivars in three replications. irrigation treatments condu...

the study was carried out to examine the effects of urban sewage and nitrogen fertilizer levels on yield quantity and quality forage of sweet corn was evaluated in yasouj at 2009. the main experimental factor consisted of 5 irrigation levels including: common irrigation water without sewage effluent until the end of plant growth (i1), the first half of plant growth period with sewage effluent a...
