Abstract:

In order to tend to the world’s dwindling freshwater supplies, sustainable alternative methods need to be integrated in order to keep up with the world’s increasing demand. Reclaimed water (RW) is one of the sustainable methods adopted by some Floridian cities such as Tampa, Tallahassee, and St. Pete that provide an alternative water source for non-potable uses. However, despite this alleviating effect RW has on freshwater supplies, it is crucial to recognize the potential harm it poses on neighboring waterbodies due to the residual contaminants it still contains, including Nitrogen (N) and Ph

Abstract:

The coal industry of Mpumalanga Province is faced with the problem of developing cost effective ways of using large volumes of calcium and magnesium sulphate enriched waste waters. Use of the waste waters for agricultural production may contribute as a stabilising factor with regard to yields in this high potential agricultural area. The objectives of this study were to determine the effect of such waste waters on yield and to compare crop response to calcium and magnesium sulphate salinity at different nutrient levels. Two separate glasshouse experiments were conducted. Wheat (Triticum aestiv

Abstract:

The yield, fruiting habits, plant nitrogen uptake, dry matter production, and boll and fiber properties were studied in relation to nitrogen fertilizer and water application rate interactions in trickle-irrigated cotton. Nitrogen applications did not significantly increase yields because of high initial soil nitrogen and nitrogen added with the irrigation water. Significant yield differences did exist between the 60% consumption use (CU) irrigation level and the 90% and 120% CU irrigation levels. The 60% CU level resulted in appreciable plant water stress and appreciably lower yields. Nitrogen

Five 0.75-ha, fescue-bermudagrass paddlocks received four broiler litter applications in 1995 and 1996, and only inorganic fertilizer N in 1997 and 1998.

Abstract:

This thesis examines the response to P fertiliser by wheat crops growing in the vertosol soils of the low rainfall areas of the northern grain zone of eastern Australia. Farmers in this region depend on water accumulated from rainfall over a fallow period and stored in the subsoil to increase wheat grain yield beyond that normally achievable from in-crop rainfall and to decrease the production risks due to rainfall variability. The large variability in stored water, seasonal rainfall and subsoil properties result in extremely varied yield and yield responses to P fertiliser between seasons and

Single superphosphate is derived from chemically treating rock phosphate into relative proportions of monobasic, dibasic and tribasic calcium phosphate to produce a commonly used source of phosphorus fertiliser for pasture systems. The leaching of phosphorus on susceptible soil types contributes to eutrophication and environmental damage. By modifying the chemistry of single superphosphate to match a soils phosphorus binding index and rainfall conditions, pasture dry matter yield can be maintained and leaching of phosphorus significantly reduced.

Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento CientÃfico e TecnolÃgico<br>This study had as its objective to study the effect of water depths and phosphorus levels and their interaction on productivity and economic components of the production cunhÃ (Clitoria ternatea L.). The experiment was conducted at the Curu Valley Experimental Farm in Pentecoste - CearÃ in the period of september 2007 to March 2008. The experimental design was in randomized blocks with split plots, composed of four primary treatments in the plots, four secondary treatments in subplots and four blocks. The treatments is the combin

Abstract:

A series of studies were initiated to investigate growth responses of Kentucky bluegrass (Poa praetensis L.) and creeping bentgrass (Agrostis palustris Huds.) to foliar applications of two plant growth regulators (PGR) and/or chelated Fe (Na Fe diethylene triamine pentaacetate). Environmental variables considered were N levels, soil moisture regimes, and saline irrigations. The two materials investigated for PGR properties were a commercial product called Roots (a cold-water extract of seaweed and peat humus fortified with "intermediate metabolites" and thiamine) and the systemic fungicide
