Performance records (birth weight and actual milk yield) on 206 Swedish Red cattle maintained at private organic diary cattle enterprise in Kelkit district of Gümüşhane province, in Turkey, were analyzed through regression tree method to determine the effects of some factors affecting birth weight and actual milk yield. The birth weight of calves averaged as 41.034±4.218 kg. Out of total calves...

garlic is one of the important medicinal plants that it's plants in many origins. the intercropping of plants is a view of sustainable agriculture that it's very useful. to evaluate the potential of garlic in intercropping with medicinal plants, this study was conducted as a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replications at the ramin agriculture and natural resources university...

a simple mechanistic model was constructed to evaluate potential dry matter of pearl millet. all needed parameters were calculated based on many field and laboratory experiments and actual data obtained from 86 fields of millet located at different regions of khorasan's provinces. the major simulated processes were crop phenology (as a function of temperature and photoperiod function curve...

Himalayas, are among the areas most vulnerable to global warming, however, little is knownabout warming impacts on the crops. Therefore, the actual affects of anticipated warming onwinter wheat were tested in Tibet, China. During the period 1988-2012, Tibet region hasexperienced a large increase in daily mean, minimum and maximum temperatures during wheatgrowing seasons by 0.50, 0.67 and 0.51 o...

yield prediction before harvesting is one of the tools in order to planning food production supply in future.yield prediction was carried out for wheat(triticum aestivum) using different meteorological variables with agrometeorological indices in hamedan district during 2003-04 and 2004-05. according to correlation coefficients, standard error of estimate as well as relative deviation of predic...

To assess the scope for enhancing productivity of soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.), the CROPGRO-Soybean model was calibrated and validated for the diverse soybean-growing environments of central and peninsular India. The validated model was used to estimate potential yields (water non-limiting and water limiting) and yield gaps of soybean for 21 locations representing major soybean regions of Ind...

abstract: deficit irrigation technique can be used for produce more yield for every unit of irrigation water, and cause to increase crop economical benefit. main purpose of deficit irrigation is high water use efficiency with decreasing in irrigation sufficiency. in this research potential of cropwat model in deficit irrigation management for two crops, wheat and barley in karaj climate was stu...

Declines in cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata) crop quality may result from delaying harvest to allow for greater total yield. An accurate, reliable, rapid and inexpensive method to estimate yield before harvest not requiring direct weight measurements would assist cabbage growers and handlers in harvest scheduling. Results from 3 years of study during which a tool to predict cabbage yie...
