the effect of 10-year continuous saffron cultivation on physical and chemical properties of a silty clay loam soil was investigated in a research farm of college of agriculture, shiraz university, shiraz (52 º 33ʹ e longitude and 29º 36ʹ n latitude), iran. this farm was irrigated with different regimes (100% of saffron's potential evapotranspiration (etp), 75%etp, 50%etp) including rain fed tre...

Water management and utilization is an ongoing problem in developing countries with semi-arid to arid climates such as Afghanistan. The lack of effective irrigation systems are oftentimes the most limiting factor for maximizing agricultural productivity in these countries. In Afghanistan, the most widely used irrigation methods are basin/border for cereal crops and furrow for vegetables and gra...

water resources are limited in most parts of the country, including isfahan,where cotton is cultivated but it’s planting time coincides with the sensitive stage of cereal grain growth. therefore, developing and adopting techniques that could maximize use of the existing resources is needed. to study the effect of basin and furrow irrigation methods on yield and some yield components of cotton  ...

in order to evaluate the effects of planting pattern on morphological, phonological, yield and yield components of sweet and super sweet corn (zea mays l.) varieties under saline conditions, a field experiment was conducted as split plots based on a randomized complete block design with four replications. planting pattern in 3 levels included one row in ridge, two row in ridge and furrow planti...

The perturbation to the momental figure of Ganymede by the impact basin Gilgamesh was modelled, and it was found that the format, ion of the basin could have significantly reoriented the satellite. Global trends of groove orientation suggest that groove sets formed in reactivated zones of weakness, which were created by tidal despinning and furrow formation. The paleo•ole n which despinning occ...

this experiment was performed based on split plot in rcbd with three replications in minab agricultural research station during two successive years. main plots were allocated to planting method (basin and furrow) and sub plot to four onion cultivars (‘primavera’, ‘white early grano 502’, ‘ht3544’ and ‘ht3560’). nursering was done in october and the transplants were transferred to main land in ...

in order to study the effect of sowing dates and cultivation methods on yield and other characteristics of two cultivars of common bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.) an experiment based on split plot design was carried out with three replications in 2007 at khorramdarreh region of zanjan province. treatments consisted of three sowing dates (may 21, june 4&19), two cultivation methods (furrow and basi...
