this experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of different sowing densities and nitrogen fertilizer rates on quantitative and qualitative corn forage yield in an agroforestry system with orange trees. the treatments consisted of 4 nitrogen fertilizer levels of 0, 100, 200, and 300kg n/ha (allocated to main plots) and 4 sowing densities of 80000, 110000, 140000 and 170000 of corn seeds (...

A field experiment was conducted to determine the response of different doses of N and P2O5 on the growth and flower quality of gladiolus at farmer field district Quetta during the summer season 2008. Six treatments were included in the trial viz; T1 (125+100); T2 (125+200); T3 (150+100); T4 (150+200); T5 (175+100) and T6 (175+200) NP kg/ha were tested in four replicated randomized complete blo...

The application of fertilizers as a topdressing in maize raises serious concerns because too much fertilizer is retained the upper leaves, causing burning to tissues. In this study, use controlled-release and stabilized (with 3, 4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate) was compared with conventional split into two equivalent applications forage maize-oats cropping system. maize, 100 200 kg N ha−1 differen...

to determine the effects of priming and planting density on improvement of morphological and physiological traits of the two hybrid corns sc (s.c. 704) under double cropping in sari, a split plot experiment as randomized complete block design with four replications was conducted in 2010. treatments included two densities of 80 and 100 thousand plants per hectare as the first factor and osmoprim...

Ninety crossbred beef calves (277.7 ± 7.1 kg) were utilized in a completely randomized design to determine supplement and rumen undegraded protein (RUP) influence on calf performance while grazing stockpiled tall fescue. Calves were supplemented at 1.15% of BW DM with dried distillers grains w/solubles (DDGS); 80.7% DDGS, 19.3% AminoPlus (DDG19); 80.7% soybean hulls (SBH), 19.3% AminoPlus (SBH1...

the co-inoculation of mulberry with phosphate solubilizing micro-organisms, nitrogen fixing bacteria and arbuscular mycorrhiza has influenced its macronutrient uptake through leaf. the data revealed that maximum nitrogen (484.12 kg /ha) , phosphorus (59.83 kg /ha) and potassium (244.61 kg/ha) uptake through leaf has taken place due to co-inoculation treatments as compared to the un inoculated t...

in order to examine the effects of biological and chemical fertilizers with the use of salicylic acid on the agronomic characteristics of corn as a factorial experiment in randomized complete block design with three replications at the agricultural research station in 2011 was boroujerd. factors examined included three levels of phosphorus fertilizer (0, 100 and 150 kg ha), two levels of biolog...

In order to determine the response of some tropical grass species to low light situations such as under plantation crops, seasonal cloud cover, etc., six tropical forage grasses were evaluated over a 20 month period on an Oxic Haplustoll in Hawaii (100 m above sea level) under four light regimes (100, 70, 45, and 27/, daylight using polypropylene netting) in the field. The forage grasses evalua...

forage K concentration was 12 g kg 1 (Brown et al., 1969). Timothy stands should persist over time with a High K grass forage increases risk of animal metabolic disorders, concentration of 15 to 18 g K kg 1 in headed spring and forage management of perennial grass grown under K-limiting soil conditions needs further study. Our objective was to evaluate growth and 12 to 16 g K kg 1 in regrowth, ...

In a 3-yr study, corn dried distillers grains plus solubles (DDGS) were evaluated as a substitute for forage and N fertilizer in yearling steers grazing smooth bromegrass. A total of 135 steers (330 +/- 10 kg) were used in a randomized complete block design to measure the effects of DDGS supplementation and N fertilization on animal and pasture performance. Steers were initially stocked at 6.8 ...
