in order to evaluate plant density and different nitrogen levels on protein percent, yield and nitrate accumulation in potato tuber cv. agria, a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted in ardabil in 2006. factors included nitrogen levels: 0, 80, 160 and 200 kg ha-1 net nitrogen and plant densities: 5.5, 7.5 and 11 plant m-2. results s...

abstract conservation tillage practices integrated with appropriate residue management is an efficient approach in sustainable agriculture to prevent the removal or burning of crop residues. two years field experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of wheat residue management on yield, yield component and morphophysiological characteristics of corn. experimental design was split plot us...

in order to evaluate different sources and rates of nitrogen on dry matter yield, concentration and uptake of primary macronutrients (nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium) in forage sorghum (hybrid of speedfeed), three levels of nitrogen (80, 160 and 240 kg n ha-1) from three n sources (urea fertilizer, cattle manure and equal combination of urea fertilizer + cattle manure) and the control (no f...

A study was conducted to investigate the effect of different planting densities and nitrogen doses on essential oil content and yield in herb and leaves of basil (Ocimum basilicum L.). The research was conducted during 2007 and 2008 using split-plot randomized complete block design with four replications. The experiment consisted of four plant densities (30×20, 40×20 and 50×20 cm) as the main p...

A field experiment was conducted during kharif season of 2010 and 2011 to investigate the optimization of nitrogen levels under different age of seedlings transplanted on growth, chlorophyll content, yield and economics of hybrid rice. Fifteen treatment combinations consisted of three levels of seedlings age (10, 20 and 30 days) and five levels of nitrogen viz. N0, N50, N100, N150 and N200 kg h...

This research aimed to determine the effects of different cover crops and application ofbio-fertilizer on dynamic of nitrogen in the soil and sweet maize yield. Also, we evaluated theeffect of fall–winter species (common vetch, field pea, winter oats, fodder kale) and a mixtureof vetch and field pea with oats used as cover crops, as such as dead organic mulch andtraditional variant, without cov...

a filed experiment was conducted to assay the effect of nitrogen fertilization and cultivated density on essential oil content on dragonhead (dracocephalum moldavica) in semi-arid conditions in 100 km of south east of mashhad. the experiment was done as factorial based on randomized complete blocks design with three replications, factor included four levels of nitrogen fertilization (0, 50, 100...

plant spacing and nitrogen are the most important factors for increasing tuberose quality and quantity. in this study, field experiment carried out as factorial randomized completely block design (rcbd) in 3 replications. different levels of nitrogen (0, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250 kg/ha) of ammonium nitrate was used. second factor was different plant spaces (10, 15, 20 and 25 cm). results showed th...

in order to study the effect of different levels of nitrogen and sulfur fertilizers on yield, yield components, content of some elements, qualitative and quantitative traits of spring safflower (serin cv.) an experiment was conducted at agriculture and natural resource research station of ardabil in 2008. this experiment was carried out in factorial experiment in completely randomized block des...

A field experiment was carried out during 2008/2009 and 2009/2010 seasons in Agriculture farm, Sebha University, Libya to study the response of some safflower varieties(S , Giza and Dem ) to fertilization by 350 1 137 farm yard manure (FYM) combination with mineral nitrogen fertilizers (0 ton FYM+105 kg N, 1.538 ton FYM +95kgN, 3.076 ton FYM +85 kg N, 4.614 ton FYM + 75 kg N, 6.152 ton FYM + 65...
