Abstract The response of wheat to the application different rates nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), and sulfur (S) under balanced fertilization on soil types agroecologies has not been well studied in Ethiopia. Therefore, objectives this study were (1) determine soil-specific responses N, P, K, S fertilization; (2) quantify agroecology-specific (3) nutrient use efficiency fertilizati...

abstract different strategies are existed for adjusting with water shortage, of which the strategy of suitable policies adoption by determining optimum production function can be mentioned. water shortage and quality degradation of soil and water resources is one of main factors of production reduction. therefore, this study was carried out for determination of tomato sensitivity coefficients a...

Long-term changes (-20 years) in water yield, the storm hydrograph, stream inorganic chemistry, and sediment yield were analyzed for a 59 ha mixed hardwood covered catchment (Watershed 7) in the southern Appalachian mountains (USA) following clearcutting and cable logging. The first year after cutting, streamflow increased 26 cm or 28% above the flow expected if the forest had not been cut. In ...

In this study, Microwave-Assisted Solvent Extraction (MASE) was used to recover oil residues from pomace olive using acidic hexane. Results obtained demonstrated that oil extraction yield increased with time, the amount of acetic acid in hexane and power radiation. For both radiation powers used (170 and 510W), the optimal extraction time and most interesting content of acetic acid in hexan...

The aim of this paper is to investigate adhesion property between nano-layered filler and the polymer matrix using a combination of experimental and micromechanical models as well as the changes in yield strength and stiffness of a layered silicate-filled epoxy nanocomposite. The results indicate that addition of intercalated layered silicate particles increased Young’s modulus and yield streng...

disadvantages such as indeterminate inflorescence and high seed shattering during ripening are significant restrictions to introduce evening primrose as a commercial medicinal plant. following to the last works, a pot experiment was conducted to clarify the influence of defoliation before harvest on the seed yield, oil and gla (gamma-linolenic acid) percentage of evening primrose growing under ...

pyrolysis of low density polyethylene (ldpe) by equilibrium fluid catalytic cracking (fcc) was studied in a stirred reactor under different process parameters. in this work, the effect of process parameters such as degradation temperature (420-510°c), catalyst/polymer ratio (0-60%), carrier gas type (h2, n2, ethylene, propylene, ar and he), residence time and agitator speed (0-300 rpm) on the c...
