Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Leaf Total Nitrogen Content for Nitrogen Management in a Malaysian Paddy Field by Using Soil Plant Analysis Development Chlorophyll MeterA. Gholizadeh, M. S. M. Amin, A. R. Anuar, W. AimrunProblem statement: Laboratory plant testing is usually time-consuming and high-costing. Hence, plant nutrient variability must be measured rapidly and the information made known to the farmers before the new season starts. Site-specific crop management, well-established in some developed countries, is now being considered in other places such as Malaysia. Approach: The application of site-specific management principles and techniques to diverse … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 9,240 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancing the Urea-N Use Efficiency in Maize (Zea mays) Cultivation on Acid Soils using Urea Amended with Zeolite and TSPOsumanu Haruna Ahmed, Aminuddin Hussin, Husni Mohd Hanif Ahmad et al.Problem Statement: Ammonia loss significantly reduces urea-N use efficiency in crop production. Efforts to reduce ammonia loss are laboratory oriented, as such limited in reflecting actual field conditions. This paper reports the effects of urea amended with triple superphosphate (TSP) and zeolite (Clinoptilolite) on soil pH, soil nitrate, soil exchangeable ammonium, dry matter production, N uptake, fresh cob production and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 8,878 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResidual Influence of Early Season Crop Fertilization and Cropping System on Growth and Yield of CassavaE. A. Makinde, O. T. AyoolaProblem Statement: In assessing fertilizer effects to sustain an intensive cropping system, the residual effects of fertilizer applied to preceding maize on the growth and yield of cassava and the effects of intercropping with soybean were studied in field experiments at Ibadan, Nigeria. Approach: Maize, established in April was fertilized using either organic manure or inorganic fertilizer or a mixture … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,971 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Hydroponic System for Purification of Anaerobically Treated Dairy Manure and Production of Wheat as a Nutritional Forage CropA. E. Ghaly, H.A. Farag, M. VermaA hydroponic system was developed and used for purification of an anaerobically treated dairy manure and production of forage crops. The effect of light duration, seeding rate and wastewater application rate on the crop yield and pollution potential reduction were studied. The results indicated that a wheat forage crop can be produced in 21 days from germination to harvest in … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 8,076 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhytoremediation of Anaerobic Digester Effluent for Water Purification and Production of Animal FeedA. E. Ghaly, H.A. FaragThe application of phytoremediation for purification of an anaerobically treated dairy manure and production of forage crops was investigated. Four crops (two cereals and two grasses) were examined for their ability to grow hydroponically and to remove pollutants (nutrients) from dairy wastewater. The preliminary experiments showed that timothygrass and orchardgrass did not perform well as aquatic plants. Only 24 and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,205 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPush-pull Strategy with Trap Crops, Neem and Nuclear Polyhedrosis Virus for Insecticide Resistance Management in Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) in CottonP. Duraimurugan, A. RegupathyInsecticide resistance in Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) is a major threat to cotton production in India. The virus infection was found to increase the susceptibility of H. armigera to the insecticides. But, use of Nuclear Polyhedrosis Virus (NPV) on a larger scale and on cotton due to leaf alkalinity poses certain practical problems. Hence, studies were carried out to assess the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2005 · 9,101 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCurrent Stage in the Field of Mechanisms with Gears and RodsRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella et al.The development and diversification of machines and mechanisms with applications in all fields require new scientific researches for the systematization and improvement of existing mechanical systems by creating new mechanisms adapted to modern requirements, which involve increasingly complex topological structures. The modern industry, the practice of designing and building machinery is increasingly based on the results of scientific and applied … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 13 Dec 2017 · 6,852 accessesView PDFCite
