Polyvinyl chloride polymer (PVC) dispensers loaded with ethyl (E,Z)-2,4-decadienoate (pear ester) plus the sex pheromone, (E,E)-8,10-dodecadien-1-ol (codlemone) of codling moth, Cydia pomonella (L.), were compared with PVC dispensers and a commercial dispenser (Isomate-C Plus) loaded with codlemone. Evaluations were conducted in replicated plots (0.1-0.2 ha) in apple, Malus domestica (Borkhaus...

An experiment was carried out at the Agronomy Field Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh during June to December 2012 with a view to finding out the effect of variety and nitrogen fertilizer application on the growth and yield of transplant Aman rice. The experiment comprised four varieties viz. BRRI dhan33, BRRI dhan34, BRRI dhan39 and BRRI dhan46, and four levels of nitr...

in order to study the effect of irrigation interval, n fertilizer and superabsorbent on yield and qualitative traits of sesame (sesamum indicum l.), a split-split-plot experiment was coducted in a farm in khusf of birjand, iran in 2009 on the basis of a randomized complete block design. the main plot was devoted to irrigation interval at three levels of 6, 12 and 18 days, the sub-plot was devot...

recently, increase in crop production depends on better seedling establishment, emergence rate and uniformity. thus, an experiment was carried out in a randomized complete block design with 8 fertilizer treatments and 4 replications in 2008 at sari agricultural sciences and natural resources university. the aim of this research was to evaluate effect of vermicompost (vc) on bush bean seedling e...

─This study was conducted to investigate the efficacy of five herbicides on narrow leaved weeds and growth and yield of wheat. An experiment was conducted at Agronomic Research Farm, University of Agriculture Faisalabad. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block designee (RCBD) with three replications. Treatments studied were clodinafop (Topic-15 WG) at 37 g a.i. ha, clodinafop (...

in order to investigate effect of organic manure and super absorbent on physiological and biochemical traits of potato (solanum tubersum, cv marfona), a split plot experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design with three replications at research farm, agriculture college, university of razi in 2010. main factor included two levels of super absorbent a200 (0 and 70 kg/ha,) and spl...

the lack of herbicides for broadleaf weed control is one of the most important challenges of chickpea production in iran. field experiments were conducted in lorestan, kermanshah, east and west azerbaijan to evaluate weed control and chickpea response to application of some herbicides in 2006. there were four replications at each site and treatments were arranged in a randomized complete block ...

Soil fertility degradation remains the major biophysical cause of declining per capita crop production on smallholder farms in sub-Saharan Africa. Appropriate soil fertility regimes, are therefore, critical for improved crop productivity. This study investigated the feasibility of using sole organics or their combinations with inorganic fertilisers to improve maize (Zea mays) production in the ...
