in order to study the effect of organic fertilizers application on increasing nitrogen efficiency and also quantitative and qualitative characteristics of sugar beet, a series of experiments were performed for two years (2008 and 2009) using three amino acid containing organic fertilizers at motahari research station of sugar beet seed institute (sbsi), karaj, iran. four rates of organic fertil...

to evaluate the effects of organic, chemical and integrated fertilizers on yield and yield components of turnip (brassica rapa) an experiment was conducted in research farm of college of agriculture, university of tehran, iran, during 2009 - 2010 growing season. the treatments were arranged as randomized complete blocks design with three replications and fifteen different fertilization systems....

M crested wheatgrass stands in western North Dakota were established 15 to 20 years ago. These fields are still used for hay and pasture, and many are still in excellent condition. One field at the Dickinson Experiment Station, seeded in 1938, has produced an average of 1,262 pounds of forage per acre (dry weight) over the past 12 years. However, there is good evidence that the productivity of ...

An alternative method for fertilizer spread pattern determination was developed based on predicting where individual fertilizer particles land on the ground, in contrast to the traditional method of collecting the particles in bins (ASAE Standard S341.2). A small broadcast granular fertilizer spreader (Lowery 300) was equipped with an optical sensor designed to measure the velocity and diameter...

Rashid, M. T., Voroney, P. and Parkin, G. 2005. Predicting nitrogen fertilizer requirements for corn by chlorophyll meter under different N availability conditions. Can. J. Soil Sci. 85: 149–159. Nitrogen management strategies that enhance fertilizer use efficiency and maximize profitability in corn require a rapid and accurate method to determine the crop N needs of current hybrids. The object...

one of the important aspects of the medicinal plants production is using less chemical inputs. it could be effective for increasing of production and environmental purposes. in order to investigate the effects of application time of integrated chemical fertilizer with cattle manure on growth, yield and yield components of black cumin (nigella sativa l.), an experiment was conducted based on a r...

the effect of different fertilizing systems and drought stress during grain development on grain minerals of barley (hordeum vulgare l.) was studied in field experiments on a clay-loamy soil during 2007 and 2008 growing seasons. the treatments consisted of three irrigation regimes (main plots) of: non-stressed (ns, normal irrigation continued until the end of plant physiological maturity), ...
