Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancing the Effectiveness of Feed Production in Arid Areas, Northern Kazakhstan, Considering the Utilization of Soil Moisture ResourcesKudaybergen Konopianov, Irina Anikina, Karina Omarova et al.The problems of sustainability of crop production in arid regions are actual. Moreover, often the aridity factor is combined with other stress factors, such as elevated temperatures and soil salinity. The article evaluates the effectiveness of the use of moisture and heat resources when growing fodder crops in arid conditions with a short growing season. In order to compare the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 24 May 2024 · 4,891 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Seasonal Temperature on the Genotypic Variability of Flowering Duration in Pearl Millet (Pennisetum glaucum) in NigerSani Daouda Ousmane, Mouhamadou Mounkaila Boureima, Maman Nassourou Lawali et al.Heat stress is a major contributor to crop losses worldwide. Millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.] is a staple crop for inhabitants of arid and semi-arid regions of the world, due to its extraordinary adaptation to drought and high temperatures. Climate change points to an overall increase in temperature, the effect of which on crop growth and productivity remains to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 30 Nov 2022 · 6,127 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Study of the Effects of Soil Salinity on the Growth and Development of Maize (Zea Mays L.) by using Sentinel-2 ImageryShakhislam Uzakbaevich Laiskhanov, Zhassulan Maratuly Smanov, Kulyash Duisenbaevna Kaimuldinova et al.Salinization of soil cover and the constant increase in their area have become one of the most pressing problems year after year for irrigated agriculture regions. The degradation processes caused by the salinity of soils negatively affect the growth and development of food crops. Therefore, this study focused on the effects of soil salinity in the midstream of the Syrdarya … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 15 Aug 2022 · 6,261 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFeatures Resistance of Sugar Sorgo (Sorghum Saccharatum (L) Pers.) Varieties to Environmental Stress FactorsMukasheva Danagul, Kirshibayev Yerlan Ahmetkalievich, Baiseitova Gulnaz et al.One of the types of sorghum, the most drought-resistant crop in the world, sugar sorghum (Sorghum Saccharum) is characterized by the fact that, unlike grain and broom sorghum, its stem juice contains more than 10-20% sugars. Because it can be cultivated in the arid southern regions, where it is either unprofitable or impossible to grow sugar beets, the interest in … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 5 Feb 2022 · 6,386 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation of Natural and Artificial Recharge of Shahreza Plain Groundwater in Isfahan Using CRD and Hantush ModelsMohsen Nekooei, Jahangir Abedi Koupai, Saeid Eslamian et al.Cumulative Rainfall Departure model (CRD) is widely used for estimation of ground natural recharge. This model is based on the groundwater balance and it requires random parameters. Moreover, an increase in the static level under artificial recharge facility is simulated using diffusion equations. Since Shahreza Plain is located in an arid and semi-arid area and given that rainfall is the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 17 Jun 2020 · 6,802 accessesView PDFCite
