In order to improve the prediction precision of grain yield, the grey system theory and the fuzzy neutral network are combined to construct the combined prediction model, which is applied in predicting the grain yield. Firstly, the basic theory of the grey system theory is analyzed. Secondly, the mathematical model of fuzzy neutral network is studied, and the corresponding algorithm procedure i...

ett, 1999), planted early and at low populations; thus, relying on the sorghum hybrid to adapt to the growing Typical planting recommendations for dryland grain sorghum [Sorconditions by tillering. Research by Jones and Johnson ghum bicolor (L.) Moench] in the southern High Plains are to delay (1991, 1997) demonstrated that the optimum planting date, until soil water is adequate for crop establ...

in order to investigate the effects of drought stress on grain yield and its components, a study was carried out (2011) as split plots in randomized complete blocks design in isfahan (32° 40'  n,51° 48' e). main factor was drought stress in four levels including irrigation after 80, 100, 120, and 140 mm evaporation from evaporation pan (class a) and subplots were three cultivars (sirena, record...

Rice is an important food grain crop and is consumed by majority of the human population. Nutrient management is an important aspect in rice to be given pivotal importance so as to attain sustainability of grain yield production. In the present chapter, aspects’ relating to integrated nutrient management in rice is critically reviewed. The effects of integrating chemical fertilizers with organi...

While previous research has been contradictory, potential grain yield responses and seed protein increases have led to con­ tinuing interest in N fertilizer application to soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.]. Field experiments were conducted at seven lo­ cations from 1990 to 1991 in Alabama to determine soybean response to N fertilization at various growth stages. Treatments included a factorial a...

this research was carried out at the research farm, faculty of agriculture, bu-ali sina university in growing season of 2011-2012. the aim of research was to evaluate the effect of foliar application of nano-iron chelate and bacterization of mesorhizobium bacteria on root nodulation, growth, grain yield and yield components of chickpea under rainfed conditions. a randomized complete block desig...

Grain amaranth is an emerging crop that produces seeds having high quality protein with balanced amino-acid content. However, production is restricted by agronomic limitations that result in yields that are lower than those normally produced by cereals. In this work, the use of five different rhizobacteria were explored as a strategy to promote growth and yields in Amaranthus hypochondriacus cv...
