this experiment was laid out in order to evaluate the effects  of different biofertilizers on yield components of barley. the experiment was a factorial design with three replications. treatments were three nitrogen biofrtilizers (nitroksin, nitrokara and supernitroplass) and three phosphate  biofrtilizers (phosphate barvar2, biozarr and superplass) with control for them and yield components we...

Water and fertilizer are two important factors influencing crop growth, development and yield formation. To investigate their combined effects on the soil-plant system, and to find out the optimal water and organic fertilizer coupling strategy for tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L), an experiment was carried out from May to October in 2016 in the south of China. The experiment consisted of three d...

in order to study the effects of nitrogen fertilizer on yield and growth of soybean (glycine max l.) an experiment as factorial in rcb design with three replications was conducted during 2006 and 2007 years at north khorasan. factors were cultivar (hobbit, l.w.k., and williams), and nitrogen fertilizer (0, 50, 100, and 150 kg n/ha from urea source). results indicated that cultivar and n fertili...

The most important problem in achieving high yields in rice is how to increase the nitrogen (N) absorption at each growth stage without reducing the percentage of ripened grains. Proper amount and timing of application could reduce N losses and increase fertilizer use efficiency while cost of production is also reduced and yield is increased. In order to avoid losses and to use soil-and fertili...

This study examines the agronomic response, efficiency and profitability of fertilizer microdosing in maize. An experiment with the following treatments was conducted: control without fertilizer, microdosing treatments, with the rate of 27 + 27, 53 + 53 and 80 + 80 kg ha, and banding of fertilizer with 100 + 100 kg ha of di ammonium phosphate (DAP) + urea, applied at planting and jointing, resp...

Average yields of upland rice are the lowest in Uganda, and most of the productivity gains attributed to improved varieties are related to increased area of production from clearing virgin lands for rice production. In a bid to optimize productivity, we compared the effect of four nitrogen fertilizer treatments: 0, 40, 80 and 120 kgN/ha and two variety types (ITAs (Oryza sativa) and NERICAs (Ne...

An experiment was conducted at the research farm of Crop Physiology and Ecology Department, Hajee Mohammad Danesh Science and Technology University, Dinajpur, Bangladesh, during November 2013 to April 2014 to determine the growth and yield performance of four varieties of black cumin (Exotic variety, BARI kalozira-1, Faridpur local and Natore local) as influenced by three levels of fertilizers ...

In order to make clear the recent status and trend of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production in China, datasets from multiple field experiments and published literature were collected to study the agronomic characteristics related to grain yield, fertilizer application and nutrient use efficiency from the year 2000 to 2011. The results showed that the mean grain yield of wheat in 2000-2011 was...

Chemical nitrogen (N) fertilizer has long been used to help meet the increasing food demands in China, the top N fertilizer consumer in the world. Growing concerns have been raised on the impacts of N fertilizer uses on food security and climate change, which is lack of quantification. Here we use a carbon–nitrogen (C–N) coupled ecosystem model, to quantify the food benefit and climate conseque...
