in this study, the effect of four levels of supplemental irrigation on water use efficiency and yield of three lentil cultivars (kimia, ill6037 and qazvin) in two years 2013 and 2014 was conducted. experiments were performed in water engineering group research station of agriculture and natural resources campus of kermanshah razi university using by available pots as two factorial agented and w...

for determining sugar beet water requirements, this work was conducted at the  agricultural research station of torog in mashhad for 3 years. crop water requirement was measured by a drainage type lysimeter with dimension of 2*2*1 m. in order to reduce side effects, an area about 1600 m2 around the lysimeter (as a guard) was cultivated with sugar beet. soil water content was measured by tensiom...

in arid and semi arid, seedling emergence and establishment are key stages for final plant density in chickpea production. drought stress, especially at the end of the growing season, is one of the factors which decrease a main part of chickpea grain yield in these areas. therefore the aims of this study were assess to the effects of hydro priming and hormonal priming by gibberellin and abscisi...

Soil nitrate (NO3) tests are an integral part of nutrient management in annual crops. They help growers make field-specific nitrogen (N) fertilization decisions, use N more efficiently and, if necessary, comply with California’s Irrigated Lands Regulatory Program, which requires an N management plan and an estimate of soil NO3 from most growers. As NO3 is easily leached into deeper soil layers ...

The present study in a two-year experiment investigated the influence of drought and sowing time on protein composition, antinutrients, and mineral contents of wheat whole meal of two genotypes differing in their water requirements. Different thermal conditions prevailing during the grain filling period under different sowing time generated a large effect on the amount of total soluble proteins...

THE RICE LANDS of Malaysia, tolaling 0.6 M ha are broadly classified as either granary or nongranary areas. The granaries comprise 8 large and contiguous irrigation schemes, covering 210,000 ha and producing more than 65 percent of the country's total output; and it is in these granaries that further developine.nt of rice production will bt. concentrated. The nongranaries are either rain-fed or...
