an experiment was conducted in 2011 to evaluate the effect of weed interference on sunflower yield in deficit irrigation and to study the grass and broadleaf weeds growth at different moisture condition. the experiment was arranged as factorial, randomized complete blocks with four replicates per treatment. treatments included different moisture conditions [40%, 60%, 80%, and 100 percent of cro...

abstract water and nitrogen are the main limiting factors affecting agricultural production in arid and semiarid regions. therefore, improving the efficiency of these factors is very important. the method of fertilizer application is affecting water and fertilizer use efficiency. the objective of this study was to investigate the effect of furrow fertigation on fertilizer use efficiency (fue), ...

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of different levels of dried lemon pulp (DLP) on performance, carcass traits, blood biochemical and immunity parameters of broilers. In this experiment 240 of broilers (Ross-308) were used in a completely randomized design with 4 treatments and 3 replicates (with 20 birds in each replicate) from 1 to 42 days. Experimental diets included: 1) ...

this study was carried out to evaluate the association between laboratory seed characteristics and seedling emergence of canola cultivars that it's were produced under different irrigation regime and planting date. the treatments were included two planting date and two levels of irrigation (main factors) and seeds of five canola cultivars (sub factor) which in first year (2006-2007) had be...

Micronutriens deficiency is prevalent in case of drought stress conditions, so complementary boron and zinc nutrition are important for crops to overcome drought stress. This study evaluated the effect of zinc and boron foliar application on physiological traits of sesame under different irrigation levels. The experiment was conducted as a split plot in a randomized complete block design with t...

Supplemental irrigation under prolonged drought conditions has a key role in providing water for transpiration of rain-fed fig trees. The effect of different times and amounts of supplemental irrigation at different distances from the tree trunk on quantity and quality of Estahban rain-fed fig production was evaluated during two years. A randomized complete block design with four replications o...

water is the most important factor for agriculture development in iran. accordingly the optimal consumptione of water is very important. using pressurized irrigation system is one of the methods to improve agricultural water management. the objecttives of this research were to compare two irrigation methods of furrow and trickle irrigation systems impacts on quantity and quality characters of s...

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) is one of the major crops grown in Northern China in recent years, however, the current serious water shortage conditions present a challenge to the growth of this crop, especially if efficient use of water is considered in forage production for sustainability. This study aimed to evaluate alfalfa productivity and water use efficiency (WUE) under different sprinkler ir...
