plant density can be as a supplementary section in the increase of the yield of wheat products. in order to research the effect of density on the yield and yield components in wheat, an experiment was conducted in the agricultural research farm located in araghi mahalleh, gorgan city using three density levels (150, 262, 375 plant in square meter) and three cultivars of wheat (tajan, falat, n-8...

for determination of economic damage threshold of four wheat (triticum aestivum l.) cultivars in different densities of wild mustard (sinapis arvensis l.), experiments were conducted at agricultural research station gorgan during 2010-2012. the experimental design consisted of four randomized complete blocks in a factorial arrangement. the treatments comprised of factorial combination of wild m...

water user associations (wuas) are one of the water market development models and a way to transfer the irrigation management from government sector to water users which have been increasingly taken into account over the recent years. in iran accordingly, a number of wuas has been developed in downstream dam irrigation and drainage networks on pilot scale. the major goal of wuas is to improve w...

salinity and flooding are as two very important factors of soil degradation. they often occur together and cancause severe damage to plants. however, plant response to environmental stresses may vary with growth stage atwhich exposure occurs. a pot study was conducted in 2005-2006 in northern aq qala (northern iran) to studycombine effects of waterlogging and soil salinity at different growth s...

Water shortages in rice production represent a formidable challenge for the world’s food, economic, and social security. is most important single component sustainable growth, especially traditional rice-growing areas. Therefore, this study attempts to evaluate improvement of water productivity Northern Iran on basis Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats (SWOT) analysis. This qualitativ...

rivers are one of the most valuable aquatic ecosystems that their physiochemical properties and the biology of their organisms have strong interactions. one of the major rivers in iran, which covers a variety of ecosystems, is called tajan river. in this research, the effect of different pollution sources on water quality of this water body was investigated. samples were collected in seven diff...

in order to investigate the competitive effects of wild mustard on yield and yield components of wheat cultivars, field experiments was conducted in gorgan reaserch station during 2010-2012 growing seasons. the experiments were laid out in four replicated, factorial arranged rcb design. factors of the experiments included five different densities of wild mustard (0, 4, 8, 16 and 32 plants.m-2) ...

the first step to quantify crop phenology is precise estimation of the parameters, which affect it. these parameters are mainly temperature and photoperiod. this study was conducted with eight sowing dates to quantify response of stem elongation rate (ser) to temperature and photoperiod in wheat (tajan cultivar). the regression models fitted to ser against temperature were flat, logistic, quadr...

introduction several hundred pesticides of different chemical compositions are currently used for agricultural and vector control purposes all over the world. because of their extensive use, they are detected in various environmental matrices, such as soil, water, and air. due to their lipophilic nature, hydrophobicity, and low chemical and biological degradation rates, organochlorine pesticide...
