in order to study the effect of planting arrangements and water quantities in drip irrigation onyield of maize, an experiment was carried out using a spilt block based on randomizedcomplete block design for three years (2006-09) in moghan. the factorial experiment hadthree planting densities (75000, 85000 and 95000 plants per hectare ) with one- and two-rowscultivation (b1= one row cultivation ...

Phosphorus (P) is the second most important crop nutrient after nitrogen that increases productivity and profitability of maize (Zea mays L.) on P deficient soils in Northwest Pakistan. The objective of this study was to find the best level and time of P application for higher maize (cv. Azam) productivity and profitability. Field experiment was conducted at the Research Farm of Khyber Pakhtunk...

in order to investigate genetic correlation and path analysis between grain yield and yield components, fifteen early maturing hybrids of grain corn (zea. mays) using a randomized complete block design with 4 replications were evaluated in khoramabad agricultural research center, iran. the data were collected and analyzed for ear emergence date, anthesis date, maturity date, plant height, ear h...

Bio-fertilizers are naturally occurring soil bacteria that aggressively colonize plant roots and benefit plants by providing growth promotion. This investigation was aimed at determining the effect of Nitroxin bio-fertilizer application on growth, inoculation and yield production of corn hybrids. An experiment was conducted as split plot on the basis of randomized complete block design with fou...

The present investigation for studying correlations and path analysis estimates grain yield contributing characters in maize was carried out at Maize Research Centre Seed Farm, Devihosur eleven characters. Days to 50 per cent tasseling significantly positively correlated with days silking negatively plant height, ear cob length, shelling percentage, hundred weight yield. significant percentage ...

BACKGROUND: Alternative furrow irrigation method is an effective procedure to reduce the amount of irrigation water in arid areas for economic production. OBJECTIVES: Assessment seed yield, its components and morphological characteristics of corn affected different level of irrigation regime and super absorbent polymer (SAP) under warm and dry climate con...

in order to evaluate the effects of different levels of water and plant density on yield, yield components, morphological and physiological characteristics of a new corn hybrid (ksc 500), an experiment was carried out in 2006 in karaj area. the experimental design was split plot based on randomized complete blocks design with three replications. main plots were three irrigation levels: 75%, 100...

in order to study the effect of plant density and sowing date on ear economic yield and sugar content in sweet corn (zea mays l. cv. saccarata), a field experiment was conducted at tarbiat modarres university (tehran west) in 2004. the experiment was carried out using split plots based on randomized complete block design of 4 replications. four levels of sowing date (may 22th, june 10th, july 1...

Fertilizer management is essential for achieving sustainable agriculture and protecting the environment. To evaluate the effect of Nitroxin bio-fertilizer application on quantitative and qualitative traits of corn hybrids a farm research was arranged via split plot experiment based on the randomized complete block design with four replications in 2013. Main plots were Included: use of the chemi...

the objective of the present field experiment was to examine how plant density and enhanced source, i.e. thinning treatments, may affect grain yield and its components for a non-prolific maize hybrid, sc704. the environment of the hybrid maize crop was changed at intervals over its life cycle by removing every other plant in rows equispaced at 75 cm apart with a population of 13.34 plants m...
