Salinity plays an important role in the reduction of tomato growth, especially in arid and semi-arid regions. Nitrogen (N) may increase tomato tolerance to salt stress by increasing plant growth. In order to investigate the interaction effect of salinity and nitrogen on tomato growth, fruit quality, and micronutrient concentration in tomato plants, a hydroponic experiment was conducted in a com...

Appropriate plant nutrition has a great impact on yield and yield quality of crops. To optimize nutrition of broccoli in calcareous soils, poor in organic matter content, a pot experiment was conducted in greenhouse of Zanjan University in 2010. With respect to nitrogen (N) and boron (B) deficiency in calcareous soils and great impact of these elements on yield and quality of broccoli, the effe...

Irrigation water Scarcity is the major limiting factor for crop production in irrigated farming. Therefore, optimal use of water is influenced by seasonal rainfall especially where the water price is high. Nitrogen also plays a key role in plant nutrition. In this study, wheat grain yield production as a function of applied water (irrigation plus seasonal rainfall) and nitrogen fertilizer (appl...

Agroforestry is one of the sustainable agricultural aspects in which the perennial woody plants grow in selective method with annual plants, domestic or both. This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of different sowing densities and nitrogen fertilizer rates on quantitative and qualitative characters of corn forage yield as well as weed population in an agroforestry system with or...
