The field experiment was conducted during Zaid season 2022 at experimental of Crop Research Farm, Department Agronomy, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University Agriculture, Technology & Sciences, Prayagraj and Uttar Pradesh, India. soil plot sandy loam in texture, nearly neutral reaction (pH7.3), low organic carbon (0.48%), available nitrogen (230 kg/ha), phosphorus (13.60 ...

Multiple cropping (i.e. intercropping or mixed cropping) plays an important role in agriculture because of the effective utilization of resources, significantly enhancing crop productivity compared with that of monocultured crops. The study was planed to assess the effect of various concentrations (00, 30, 60, 90 kg ha(-1)) of phosphorous on the biochemical composition of grains of Hordeum vulg...

Soil carbon (C) sequestration in tilled and nontilled areas can be influenced by crop management practices due to differences in plant C inputs and their rate of mineralization. We examined the influence of four cover crops {legume [hairy vetch (Vicia villosa Roth)], nonlegume [rye (Secale cereale L.)], biculture of legume and nonlegume (vetch and rye), and no cover crops (or winter weeds)} and...

In the present study, the research results concluded that yield attributes of scented rice under aerobic culture responded up to 150 kg/ha nitrogen with four equal splits of nitrogen at 1⁄4 basal + 1⁄4 at active tillering + 1⁄4 at panicle initiation and 1⁄4 at heading. Grain and straw yields obtained higher values with highest level of nitrogen i.e. 175 kg/ha comparable with 150 kg/ha. Grain qu...

A field experiment was conducted during Zaid 2020 at Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Prayagraj (U.P). The soil experimental plot sandy loam in texture, nearly neutral reaction (pH 7.1), low organic carbon (0.36%), available N (171.48 kg/ha), P (15.2 kg/ha) and K (232.5 kg/ha). laid out Randomized Block Design with nine treatments each replicated thrice on the basis one year ...

to evaluate the effect of gamma rays on the seeds and amounts of nitrogen on growth and yield of chamomile (chamomilla recutita synonym matricaria chamomilla), a factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications at the research farm of agriculture college of shahid-beheshti.-urmia in 2010. treatments were gamma rays from cobalt-60 on chamomile ...

Ischaemum rugosum is a competitive weed in direct-seeded rice systems. Developing integrated weed management strategies that promote the suppression of weeds by crop density, cultivar selection, and nutrition requires better understanding of the extent to which rice interferes with the growth of this weed and how it responds to resource limitation due to rice interference. The growth of I. rugo...
