abstract the amount of needed fertilizer in agricultural soils depends to the type of crop. absence of enough fertilizer may cause in tensions in plants and consequently result in decrease in amount of product. according to the agricultural literature, soils containing total nitrogen amounts (n %) between 0.1-0.15 percent are considered as soils containing normal amounts of nitrogen. the values...

Objective: This field experiment was laid out in order to study on effect of Nano and Bio fertilizers on yield and yield components of tomato (Lycopersicone sculentum L.) during the growing seasons 2013- 2014. Methods: The experiment was laid out in a factorial based on randomized block design with three replications. Treatments were K nanofertilizer in five levels such as (0, 100, 200...

to evaluate the effects of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) such as azotobacter chroococcum, azospirillum lipoferom and brasilence and pseudomonas fluorescens and nitrogen fertilizer from urea source on yield and yield components of maize (zea mays l.) double cross hybrids (dc 370), a field experiment was carried out in a factorial experiment (5*3) in rcbd with 4 replications. bacter...

15N-labeled fertilizer was applied to Sorghum at different rates (0, 100 kg N.ha -1 ) to 1m2 microplots and with two kind of water (well water “WW” and treated wastewater “TWW”) to Sorghum grown in field during 1997 and 1999. Increases in DM production, N uptake and 15 NRF were observed with TWW. About 17% and 36% of the 15Nfertilizer were recovered in the crop with TWW in 1997 and 1999, respec...

The source and quantity of nutrients available to plants can affect the quality of leafy herbs. A study was conducted to compare quality of Cosmos caudatus in response to rates of organic and mineral-based fertilizers. Organic based fertilizer GOBI (8% N:8% P₂O₅:8% K₂O) and inorganic fertilizer (15% N, 15% P₂O₅, 15% K₂O) were evaluated based on N element rates at 0, 30, 60, 90, 120 kg h⁻¹. Appl...

in other to evaluate the effects of nitroxin biofertilizer and different levels of nitrogen fertilizer, on yield and yield components of winter wheat (triticum aestivum), a field experiment was conducted in research station, college of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad in 2009-2010. the experiment was conducted as a factorial arrangement based on completely randomized block design wit...

Long-term impacts of alternative citrus nitrogen and water management practices implemented at grower cooperator sites on the Central Florida Ridge were modeled using the nitrogen component of the Leaching Estimation and Chemistry Model (LEACHN). A bromide tracer test was conducted at one representative cooperator site to parameterize and validate the model. Following validation, 50-year simula...

The Haber–Bosch process for the commercial production of ammonia demonstrated in 1913 was a watershed event in the mass production of urea, the principal nitrogen fertilizer for modern agriculture. Today, thanks to the so-called “green revolution” starting in in the 1960s, nearly half of the world population relies on increased crop yields, through the use of nitrogen fertilizers, to access aff...

Production of Mrenda (Corchorus olitorius) in Kenya has been low due to various reasons, such as poor agronomic practices like incorrect fertilizer rates. Observations from the Mrenda growing areas showed that there is high unmet demand for crop in local market and even for export. This is due to yields being low, 2-4 tons/ha as compared to expected yield of 5-8 tons/ha. Therefore, the main obj...
