tillage and press wheel weight play an important role in seedling emergence, crop establishment and growth. an optimal combination of tillage implements and suitable press wheel weights should increase grain yield. this study investigated the effect of tillage systems and press wheel weights on dry land wheat (triticum aestivum l.) seedling emergence and grain yields in izeh, khuzestan province...

The challenges of soil degradation and climate change have led to the emergence Conservation Agriculture (CA) as a sustainable alternative tillage-based agriculture systems. Despite recognition positive impacts on health, CA adoption in Africa has remained low. Previous health studies mainly focused ‘scientific’ measurements, without consideration local knowledge, which influences how farmers i...

line no. 4 was selected from local champ a rice of lord egan, based on pure line selection method, during 1992 to 1995. the mean yield of this line was 6342 and 6829 kgha-l in two regions of lord egan in 1996 to 1997. the yield of this line was 700-1500 kgha-l more than that of lord egan local rice. line 4 is more early maturing than the local rice with better marketability and quality. amylase...

ABSTRACT-Several herbicides are registered for selective weed control in sugar beet; however, no single chemical herbicide can control all weeds in beet fields. Frequently, two or more herbicides may have to be combined sequentially or as tank mixed to achieve adequate broad-spectrum weed control. In order to evaluate the effects of some combinations of broadleaf herbicides on sugar beet yield ...

The research was aimed at analyzing the performance of winter potato under different nitrogen rates experimental fields College Agriculture, Central Agricultural University, Imphal. variety Kufri Sindhuri cultivated during seasons 2017-18 and 2018-19 three rates- 120 kgha-1 (N1), 100 (N2) 80 (N3) using drip irrigation. results indicated that plants fertilized with recorded maximum germination p...

Many methods are available to monitor nitrogen content of rice during various growth stages. However, this monitoring still requires a quick, simple, accurate and inexpensive technique that needs to be developed. In this study, Tetracam Agriculture Digital Camera (ADC) was used to acquire high spatial and temporal resolution in order to determine the status of nitrogen (N) and predict the grain...

Field assessment of integrated management BT cotton pests was carried out in two consecutive seasons; 2016/2017 and 2017/2018 the experimental research farm Kassala University, Sudan. Four insecticides (imidacloprid, abamectin, profenofos, lufenuron) from different chemical groups with a mode action three levels (43.81 kgha-1, 87.62 131.43 kgha-1) soil-applied nitrogen were tested IPM package. ...

in order to evaluate drought tolerance of cultivars and advanced grain sorghum lines, an experiment was conducted as split-plot on randomized complete blocks design with three replications at experimental field of seed and plant improvement institute, karaj in 2009. three levels of irrigation regimes including normal irrigation (ir0=60 mm), moderate stress (ir2=120 mm) and sever stress (ir3=180...
