sowing date is an important determinant of yield in canola. cultivation of winter rapeseed cultivars in semi arid regions of iran however it has high potential for production, but, mentioned cultivars are late maturity and this late maturity cause to that silique formation and seed filling periods mature in the same time with hot and dry weather condition. in contrast, spring rapeseed cultivars...

this study was conducted to investigate the effects of planting date, foliar application of benomyl fungicide and potassium silicate in improving the quality of soybean (cv. williams) seed in gorgan during 2011 and 2012. in the first year (2011), the experimental treatments were including planting dates (april 20, may 13, june 3, june 29 and july 22) and foliar application of benomyl fungicide ...

A field experiment was conducted in the Agricultural Research Station, at El-Ghoraieb, Assiut to study dry seed yield performance of two locally adapted cultivars (‘Azmerly’ and ‘Cream 7’) and two line introductions (IT81D-1032 and IT82D-812) of common cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp) grown at three different within-row spaces (20, 30 and 40 cm) and two planting dates in the summer (April 1...

Improved crop technologies have a critical role in increasing yield and farmers’ income. The present study was undertaken to analyze the adoption of recommended potato East Khasi Hills district Meghalaya. revealed that majority farmers adopted like improved varieties, seed preparation, maintenance spacing, FYM application, earthing up, weeding, planting harvesting times. However, there poor lan...

Seed treatments with Bacillus cereus UW85 increased nodulation of soybeans in three field seasons and in three different sterilized soils in the growth chamber. In the field, 28 and 35 days after planting, UW85-treated plants had 31 to 133% more nodules than untreated plants. From 49 days after planting until seed harvest, there were no significant differences between nodulation of UW85-treated...

Limited water resources restrict winter wheat grain yield and quality in the Huang-Huai-Hai Plain of North China, and establishing optimal planting patterns according to crop water requirements is the key factor for achieving rational water use. In this paper, 4 planting patterns were applied, namely, uniform row (30 cm; traditional pattern), wide (40 cm)-narrow (20 cm) row, furrow (double line...

documenting the production process in agriculture includes providing all information and activities that shows the course of production from seedbed preparation stage to harvest stage. for this purpose, in present investigation all management operations performed from seedbed preparation stage to harvest stage in the studied wheat fields in 2007 and 2008 were recorded through farms survey. in t...
