In recent years, farming section of South Khorasan Province faces different limitations such as increasing shortage of water resources and continuous reduction of weather showers.Considering consecutive droughts and water crisis in agricultural plain of the province, it is necessary to use water resources optimally and increase productivity of water shortage input. Comparison of water productiv...

Field studies were conducted in 1993 and 1994 to evaluate the effects of induced resistance in cucumber by plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) on numbers of the spotted cucumber beetle, Diabrotica undecimpunctata howardi Barber, and the striped cucumber beetle, Acalymma vittatum (F.). Cucumber plant growth and yields were significantly (P<0.05) greater, and populations of cucumber beetl...

this research aims at determining and evaluating the water productivity indexes in astan-ghods-razavi companies for different crops during 2007-2008 growth season. required field data were collected during several field surveys. these data consisted of crop yields and crop consumptive water that is irrigated by distinct agriculture well. with regard to collected data, four water productivity in...

Sea cucumbers and their extracts have gained immense popularity and interest among researchers and nutritionists due to their nutritive value, potential health benefits, and use in the treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases. Many areas of the world use sea cucumbers in traditional foods and folk medicine. Though the actual components and their specific functions still remain to be investiga...

Cucumber production has decreased in recent years. Several ways to increase cucumber productivity are the application of organic fertilizers and using appropriate varieties. Coconut coir is one wastes from rest coconut fruit that potential be utilized because it easily obtained large quantities easy process as liquid fertilizer. The aim research was study responses growth yield three (Cucumis s...

However, the impact of negative externalities such as greenhouse gas emissions on the product...

Cucumbers productivity and fruit quality depend on seedlings’ quality. The success of seedling cultivation largely depends the choice a suitable substrate. Therefore aim this research is to determine effect peat-vermicompost substrates cucumber crop yield. was carried out in greenhouse covered with double polymeric film Institute Horticulture, Lithuanian Research Centre for Agriculture Forestry...

The increase in water productivity is likely to play a vital role in coping with the additional requirement for food production and the growth of the uses of water other than in agriculture in the coming century consistent with the shift from productivity per unit land to productivity per unit water, the nutritional productivity of water is calculated as energy, protein, calcium, fat, Vitamin A...
