BACKGROUND: Nutrients play a very important role in chemical, biochemical, physiological, metabolic, geochemical, biogeochemical, and enzymatic processes. Innovations for saving water in irrigated agriculture and thereby improving water use efficiency are of paramount importance in water-scarce regions. Conventional deficit irrigation is one approach that can reduce water use w...

in order to study the effects of pgpr application methods on essential oil percent and yield of lavender (lavandula angustifolia l.) under drought stress conditions an experiment was performed at islamic azad university, yadegar-e-imam khomeini (rah) shahre-rey branch. this experiment was carried out in a split plot arrangement with randomized complete block design in three replications. experi...

seedling characteristics of different sunflower (helianthus annus l.) cultivars under drought stress and inoculation with the azospirillum lipoferum in a spilt-factorial layout based on randomized complete block design with three replications were evaluated. treatments included dehydration stress (seed produced on maternal plants which irrigated after 60 (desirable irrigation), 120 (medium stre...

in order to evaluate the effects of biofertilizer on soybean (glycine max l.) seed vigor that produced under water deficit condition and related traits, an experiment was conducted in a factorial layout based of complete randomized block design with four replications at the research greenhouse of aboureihan campus- tehran university, iran. experimental treatments were include biofertilizer (see...

abstract in order to study the effects of different irrigation management on water productivity of local, improved and hybrid rice varieties an experiment was carried out on a split plot design with 3 replications. the varieties were splited on 5 irrigation methods (i.e. full irrigation, awd, 5, 8 and 11 day irrigation interval) at rice research institute of iran, rasht during cropping season o...

in order to study the effect of irrigation and nitrogen fertilizer levels on yield of basil, an experiment was conducted as split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications in birjand (moud region) in 2010. main plot factor was two irrigation levels (7 and 14 days interval) and nitrogen fertilizer (as urea) was considered as sub plot factor in four levels (0, 50, 100...

given the scarcity of water resources using modern methods of irrigation in agriculture will be inevitable. today, process improvement, development and use of drip irrigation practices as one of the most advanced methods of irrigation in agriculture is increasing. so this study was conducted to determine the impacts of irrigation interval and drip irrigation method and their interactions on yie...
