Abstract Field experiments were conducted to determine differences in vegetative development and fruit production of Fragaria × ananassa Duch. in response to high-density planting vs. spaced-runner bed establishment, fruiting of high-density plantings in the establishment year, spring vs. summer planting of dormant crowns, and removal of stolons in excess of those required for a specific plant density. Yields did not differ significantly between spring-planted plots established exclusively with densely planted dormant crowns (11 plants per m2) and those established under a spaced-runner system using 4 stolons per mother plant to achieve the same final plant density. In spring-set, high-planting-density plots, fruit production in the planting year was low and had no effect on vegetative development or 2nd-year yields. Summer planting resulted in high mortality rates for 2 of 3 cultivars. By October, surviving summer-planted crowns had numbers of leaves and branch crowns per plant equivalent to those planted in spring. Reduced stolon production in summer plantings resulted in poor establishment of spaced-runner beds, but had no effect on dense-planted beds. Summer planting reduced yields in both high-density and spaced-runner beds compared to spring planting. Successful bed establishment in the summer is dependent on cultivar and planting density. Removal of stolons increased yields and promoted further stolon initiation in spring plantings, but had no effect on summer plantings.

In 1976 several plantings were established to compare the post-planting performance of 3 + 0 Red pine (Pinus resinosa Ait.) bare root stock planted by operational planting crews with those planted by research planting crews. Ten-year results show that field performance is directly influenced by the handling and planting methods employed by the two groups. Extra care in the handling and planting of bare root stock by research crews has led to improved survival, total height and diameter growth, resulting in a 27% overall increase in basal area. Key words: Red pine, handling and planting, plantation assessment, survival, total height, diameter and basal area

Abstract Fourteen methods of calculating heat units from planting to harvest were applied to daily maximum and minimum air temperatures taken in a standard weather shelter for 2 growing seasons (spring and summer) over 5 years of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) plantings in North Carolina. The coefficient of variation (cv) was used to determine which of the methods was most reliable in predicting day of first harvest. The best method was to sum over days from planting to harvest the difference between the daily maximum and a base temperature of 15.5°C; but if the maximum exceeded 32°, it was replaced by 32° minus the difference between the maximum and 32°, before subtracting the base. This method had a cv of 3%, compared with 10% for the standard method—numbers of days from planting to harvest.

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is the uppermost cereal grain crop considered as a major stable food for the Egyptian people. Field experiments were conducted during two consecutive winter seasons of 2017-18 and 2018-19 to study the effect of two planting dates (PD) (20th of November and 20th of December) under four different planting methods (PM) (bed broadcast, flat broadcast, drill at 15 cm, and drill at 25 cm apart rows) on the productivity and water relations of wheat genotype (Egypt 1). The study is intended to assess the water relations for wheat planting dates and planting methods and determine the role of late planting date and planting methods on wheat productivity. Results showed that the values of grain yields and some attributed yields were highly significantly affected by planting dates and methods in the two growing seasons. Planting wheat at the optimal date (20th November) was better than sowing at the late date (20th December) for all values obtained from the studied parameters in both seasons of the study. The bed broadcast planting method gave the highest mean values for all studied parameters except the plant height which was recorded with drilling seeds at a 15 cm planting method in the two growing seasons. The highest values of water applied were recorded with the first date under the borders planting method (PD1M2), while the lowest of Aw recorded was from beds planting method with the second date. The highest mean values for WP were recorded with the bed broadcast planting method.

Lagerstroemia × `Natchez' and Quercus virginiana were planted into a sandy loam soil in grow bags and by traditional field planting methods. After 2 years in the field, 1 sample from each of 6 replications was dug from the field in March. Root and top growth were measured. Half the remaining plants were dug and transplanted into 76 liter containers for 3 months. Growth indices were measured at this time. The remaining trees in the field were dug in July and handled similarly. Data from live oak trees showed increased height in trees produced by traditional field planting methods. No differences between planting methods were found in any other growth indices for the two species. Both crapemyrtle and live oak trees transplanted from traditional field plantings in March had greater height than trees transplanted from grow bags. However, no differences were detected for top weight, caliper or root ratings. July transplanted crapemyrtles showed no differences in any of the growth indices. Live oaks transplanted in July from traditional field plantings to containers all died with no additional growth. Grow bag transplanted oaks survived and continued to grow.

Full textAbstract:
Many cool-season pastures in the southeastern U.S. are dominated by a competitive cool-season grass, tall fescue (Schedonorus arundinaceus), and lack substantial plant diversity. Planting native warm-season grasses (NWSGs) and wildflowers (WFs) into these pastures could provide summer forage for cattle and more floral resources for pollinators. This paper summarizes field experiments designed to evaluate different spatiotemporal planting arrangements of NWSGs and WFs to improve their establishment success. The study was conducted from April 2021 to October 2023 in central Virginia (USA). Planting treatments included NWSG and WF mixtures planted: (1) together in the same space, (2) spatially separated in space (i.e., side by side), or (3) temporally separated where NWSGs and WFs were planted in difference sequences. Results showed few differences in forage mass, floral production, and botanical composition as well as stand density in 2021 and 2022. In 2023, NWSG abundance was greater where grasses were planted first or mixed with WFs. Similarly, the WF component was favored when they were planted before NWSGs. Overall, planting NWSG and WF mixes separately, either spatially or temporally, favors successful establishment and could offer more flexibility for using selective herbicides to suppress the heavy weed pressure that often accompanies these plantings.

Full textAbstract:
The study was conducted in 2019/2020 for two years in Habru, Kobo, and Dawa Chefa districts of the Eastern Amhara with the main objectives of evaluating and validating the productivity, evaluating economic feasibility and selecting the best performing sowing method and seed rate of tef technologies under farmers condition. The districts were selected based on their representativeness for the growth of tef. Three treatments were used for the study namely row planting with 5kg.ha-1, row planting with 10kg.ha-1, and hand broadcasting methods. Tef (Zoble variety) was used for the study purpose. Based on the data obtained, the highest yield was obtained from the hand broadcasting (25kg.ha-1) and the lowest yield was from the row planting (5kg.ha-1). The mean yield of tef from the hand broadcasting (25kg.ha-1) was 16.5% higher than the row planting (5kg.ha-1). Similarly, the labor utilization has increased from hand broadcasting 25kg.ha-1to row planting of (5kg.ha-1) and 10kg.ha-1. The labor cost for row plantings of tef was also higher, whereas the hand broadcasting (25kg.ha-1) consumed the least labor. This study therefore has proved that hand broadcasting is both high yielder and economically feasible in the Eastern Amhara. In addition to this, the study suggests that there should be additional seed rate study on broadcasting In order to gain optimum tef yield with feasible economic advantage.

Sunflower oil ranks first among selected vegetable oils in terms of quality. Therefore, in many countries of the world, an increase in the level of economic efficiency is observed depending on the area of sowing and the amount of yield obtained from it. This scientific article develops the main elements of the technology of growing oil sunflower as a repeated crop to obtain high yields from early-maturing varieties. Planting sunflower as a repeated crop after wheat and using the correct planting schemes has led to an increase in yield. The number of seeds in one basket and their weight depend on the planting scheme, and when the seed planting scheme is 70x30-1 as a repeated crop, it has been proven that the yield elements - basket, number of seeds, weight and yield increase.

Field experiments to identify suitable planting method under potato + maize system in the high hill (2200 m) of eastern Nepal Sindhuwa, Dhankuta, was conducted during 2000 and 2001 seasons for the potato variety Hale and maize variety Ganesh 1. Of the different planting methods tested, significantly the highest yield of potato (15.5 t/ha) was recorded from the alternate row planting followed by recommended practice and flat row planting. Early emergence (by 7-12 days) was in farmers' practice, whereas uniform plants (1-5 scale) observed in flat row and double row planting. Maize did not follow this trend. Double row and farmer's practice favored good ground coverage (80-95%) by potato plants, which attained height from 49.8cm (farmer's practice) to 56.8 cm (flat row). Number of main stems/plant was higher in all treatments, except farmer's practice. Similar trend was followed in tuber numbers. Maturity of crops did not depend on planting methods. Final stand of potato ranged between 46.9 (alternate row) and 68.6 thousand/ha (farmer's practice). Late blight and bacterial wilt infection was higher in the farmers' practice. The height of maize plants was significantly differed between sole cropping (220 cm), which yielded higher followed by alternate row (183 cm) and flat row plantings. Gross income from maize and potato was higher in flat row planting. The data revealed that alternate row and flat row planting methods were superior over the common farmers' practice and the recommended practice, so the identified planting methods were recommended.Nepal Agric.

Vegetable producers and marketers make business decisions based on supply estimates. The U.S. Dept. of Agriculture provides estimates of planting intentions for field crops but not for most vegetable crops. This study developed models that can be used to forecast vegetable crop plantings. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to determine the factors that influence plantings of potatoes and onions. Field crop planting intentions, industry structure, lagged values of plantings, prices received, price volatility, and the price of sugar beets were found to be significant factors. The models and/or methods used in this study should be useful to those interested in forecasting vegetable plantings.

The work discusses the components of the aggregate intended for the current leveling of crop fields, basic leveling scoop and front disc softener working bodies were used. In order to form a plane, this is required when leveling the fields of the crop with such working bodies, the leveler aggregate is formed in the transition from one to two. This will prevent further condensation of the soil, resulting in providing the plain with the required level of agrotechnics of the crop areas. This requires additional softening of the crop areas before planting after such leveling. These experiments were carried out on average, sandy areas of the Bukhara region’s irrigated mechanical composition. Conducting experiments deals with the issues such as the technological process of working with a drive mounted on a ground leveler, the structure of the soil pile before the junction, the bulk weight of the field drive layer, the hardness, the aggregate composition of the soil, the plane of the field surface and the measurement of the resistance of the aggregate to gravity. The soil pile cross-profile has been found to vary at different speeds of the leveling aggregate, decreasing high speeds of the cross-sectional profile, owing to which the soil pile cross-sectional surface changes, substantiating the fact that high speeds of the aggregate intensive loading place the soil in front of the junction. At small speeds, the above process occurs relatively slowly, and there is no blockage of the incisions to the disc softeners.

Planting plays a significant role in commercial forestry. Labour-related issues (scarcity, increased wages, absenteeism, ageing and high turnover), inconsistent work quality, increased operational costs, and poor ergonomics prompted the development of innovative planting techniques. This study aimed to assess the productivity (plants/productive machine hour), worker productivity (plants/worker PMH), work quality and tree survival of a manual and a semi-mechanised planting method. Two study sites at Flatcrown and Kwambonambi, consisting of 37 plots, were planted at 1333 stems/ha, alternating across the study sites. Block-level and elemental-level time studies were conducted, followed by work quality assessments. The manual method planted 7.23 ha/shift (Flatcrown) and 5.89 ha/shift (Kwambonambi), whilst the semi-mechanised method planted 4.72 ha/shift (Flatcrown) and 3.19 ha/shift (Kwambonambi). The manual method was 50% to 60% more productive (plants/PMH) than the semi-mechanised method. In terms of plants/worker PMH, higher worker efficiency of 30%–40% was observed at the Flatcrown site, which was characterised by level terrain and low residue presence compared to the Kwambonambi site, which had a gentle (<20%) terrain and medium residue presence. Planting quality was conducted according to planting specifications. The two methods did not significantly differ, although the study suggests that the proportion of good-quality plantings could be somewhat higher for the manual method. There was no significant difference in tree survival across methods and sites after one month.

Objective: This study was carried out to determine the applicability of the ridge sowing method and the appropriate sowing density for chickpeas on existing ridges after cotton under rain-dependent conditions. Material and Methods: The trials were carried out at split randomized block design with three replications. Two planting methods (ridge planting and conventional planting), and five planting density (30, 35, 40, 45 and 50 seed per square meter) were discussed as application issues. Results: It was determined that ridge planting method was better than conventional planting method in terms of investigated characters as days to 50% flowering, days to maturity, plant height, first pod height, primary branches plant-1 and anthracnose disease value in the study. It was seen that seed yields were affected less from environmental climate changes for ridge planting method, and anthracnose disease value occurred at lower ratio compared to conventional planting. It was determined that the convenient planting density of chickpea was 40 seed per square meter for conventional planting and 45 seed for ridge planting in the economic analysis. Conclusion: The average yield of the conventional planting method after cotton using the appropriate planting density (2081.7 kg ha-1) was found to be 6.2% higher than the yield of the ridge planting method (1960.0 kg ha-1). However, in the economic analysis, it was determined that ridge planting was 9.2% more profitable than the conventional planting method in terms of net income.

A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of tillage practices and planting methods on the performance of summer planted sugarcane at GBPUA&T, Pantnagar. Ten treatments comprising two tillage practices (conventional and no pre-planting tillage) and five planting methods (flat, ridge & furrow, trench, dual row trench and pit planting) were laid out in factorial randomized block design with three replications. No pre-planting tillage significantly increased the emergence percentage over conventional tillage besides attaining the more plant height, leaf area index and number of green leaves. Among different planting methods, maximum emergence (36.48 %) was noticed in trench method. In terms of growth, viz; plant height, number of green leaves and LAI, dual row trench method showed superiority over the remaining methods of the planting . Trench planting gave the maximum number of shoots which in turn also reflected in the maximum number of millable canes (108448 ha -1 ). In spite of non significant differences, no pre-planting tillage produced 1.4 t ha-1 higher cane yield than conventional tillage. No pre planting tillage gave Rs. 10586 ha-1 and Rs. 13311 ha -1 , higher gross and net return, respectively than conventional tillage and also had 12.1 per cent higher benefit cost ratio than conventional tillage. Trench method produced the maximum cane yield (90.8 t ha -1 ) which was significantly higher than flat and dual row trench planting. It also gave the maximum gross (Rs. 272989 ha -1 ), net return (Rs. 189278 ha -1 ) and B:C ratio (2.26).

Seedling broadcast method of stand establishment with different treatment combinations were studied in rice along with line planting and random planting during Rabi 1994-95 and Kharif 1995. The rice yield obtained by seedling broadcast planting was comparable with traditional random planting though line planting method produced enhanced yields during both seasons of study. However, the return per rupee invested was highest in the case of rice established by seedling broadcast planting (2.59 and 3.02 in Rahi and Kharif respectively). Studies on the evaluation of component technologies to enhance yields by seedling broadcast planting method revealed that irrespective of nursery method, 35 day old seedling broadcasted at 30 per cent more plant density produced an yield which was on par with line planting during Rabi, while in Kharif seedlings of semidry nursery which were 35 days old and broadcasted at normal plant density produced higher yield and higher return per rupee invested

Abstract Planting-time, cultivation-layby and slot injection treatment trials were conducted at Wooster, OH. The specific soil type for the sites was a Wooster silt loam. A randomized complete block design with 4 and 3 replicates was employed for soil insecticide evaluation in conventional and no-tillage plots, respectively. Plots were 40 ft long and 2 rows wide. Corn was planted 18 May in 30 inch rows. Planting time treatments were applied with Gandy metering units driven by 12 V electric motors mounted on a two row John Deere Max-Merge planter that applied granules ahead of the press wheel in 7-inch bands. Planting time treatments were made at recommended rates. Slot injection insecticide treatments were applied at a rate of 1.0 lb (AI)/acre and 0.33 lb (AI)/acre at 500 psi, delivery rate was 20 gal/acre of finished spray. All Brace treatments were applied at 0.66 instead of 1.0 lb (AI)/acre for planting and injection treatments. Nozzles were spaced 5 inches off center on both sides of the row (2 rows) and injected into a 3-inch deep slot made by a fluted coulter. Injection and cultivation-layby treatments were applied 11 Jun and 1 Jul in the conventional tillage plots respectively, there were no cultivation-layby treatments in the no-tillage plots. Root rating according to the Iowa 1-6 rating scale was done 18 Jul. Five root masses/replicate were dug and rated.

Full textAbstract:
Most tree species in agroforestry plantings are intolerant to vegetative competition and sites must be intensively cultivated to eliminate weeds. Many studies have been conducted to investigate what factors limit seedling growth because of the presence of vegetative competition in forest environments; however on agricultural sites there are few studies on weed management options for tree planting. This research quantified and compared growth of Manitoba maple (Acer negundo), green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), Colorado spruce (Picea pungens), Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) and Walker poplar (Populus x Walker) in response to combinations of in-row and between-row weed control methods. The study was established on an agroforestry planting on agricultural soils in Saskatchewan. Treatments included in-row weed control using herbicides or plastic mulch and between-row weed control using tillage compared with a non-weeded control. Weed control positively affected annual height increment, basal diameter and height of the agroforestry species. The impacts of weed control versus no weed control were significant in almost all instances. However, tree species responded differently to the method of weed control. Weed control by herbicide and plastic mulch were not significantly different for four of the five species under investigation. This research will help with prescribing weed control methods for agroforestry and afforestation plantings on agricultural soils.

Full textAbstract:
Blue honeysuckle has successfully become one of the industrial berry crops of the XXI century. The area of blue honeysuckle plantations in Russia exceeds 500 hectares. More than 210 varieties of blue honeysuckle of Russian and foreign breeding were collected at the experimental sites of the SPC “Agropishcheprom”. As a result of the breeding work carried out, the Michurinskoye Divo blue honeysuckle variety, which has a set of requirements for industrial varieties, was transferred to the state variety testing. The main problem when laying commercial blue honeysuckle plantations is the lack of high-quality planting material of new varieties.

Abstract In Egypt, the traditional transplanting method of rice planting is substituted by broadcasting and dibbling recently. This paper studies the effects and the changes occur in different rice varieties due to different methods on grain quality and amino acids of rice. Three Egyptian rice cultivars belonging to japonica, japonica/indica and indica subspecies were investigated for grain quality, protein and amino acid composition under three planting methods, i.e., broadcasting, seedling transplanting and dibbling. A strip plot design with three replications was used; the investigated three rice cultivars occupied the horizontal main plot, while three planting methods were devoted to the vertical main plot. The method of planting did not affect significantly the grain dimension, but it affected significantly the milling characters and the 1,000-grain weight. The highest milling characters and 1,000-grain weight came from transplanting, while the lowest one from the dibbling method. There was no significant difference between transplanting and broadcasting in milling characters and 1,000-grain weight. The chemical and cooking characters of grains showed no significant differences in moisture content and gelatinization temperature characters, while the differences in protein content and elongation were significant among the varieties and planting methods. The interaction between the planting method and rice had significant effect on the protein content. The most important essential amino acids according to the FAO/WHO pattern were not affected significantly by the different methods of planting. This means that the biological value of rice grains is not affected by different methods of planting.

For the Indonesian people, rice is indispensable as it provides essential energy and carbohydrates. One critical factor influencing rice production is the planting system and planting methods. The research aimed to determine the effect of different planting systems on the growth and yield of the Inpago Unsoed Protani rice variety (Oryza sativa L.). Conducted in Gintungan Village, Gebang District, Purworejo Regency, from June 2023 to October 2023, the study utilized a Divided Plot Design (RPT) with 27 replications and examined two factors. Factor 1, the planting method as the main plot, consisted of three types: J1 = tile planting system (25 cm x 25 cm), J2 = Jajar Legowo planting system 2:1 (20 cm x 10 cm x 40 cm), and J3 = Jajar Legowo planting system 2:1 (25 cm x 12.5 cm x 50 cm). Factor II, the number of seeds per planting hole, included three treatment levels: B1 = one seed per planting hole, B2 = two seeds per planting hole, and B3 = three seeds per planting hole. Observations focused on plant height, number of productive tillers, number of panicles, number of filled grains, amount of empty grain, number of filled grains per panicle, weight of 1000 grains, and yield. The results showed no interaction effect between the planting system and the number of seedlings on the growth and yield of the Inpago Unsoed Protani rice variety. However, the Jajar Legowo planting systems outperformed the tile planting systems, demonstrating superior results. Specifically, employing a single seedling per hole proved to be the optimal planting method for enhancing the growth and yield of the Unsoed Protani rice variety. Keywords: planting method, rice, plant system

The aim of our research program is to develop the production technology and to examine the possibilities of the utilization of sweet potato (Ipomea batatas (L.) Lam.). In 2016 and 2017, production technology experiments were set up with four replications in a randomized block design on an alluvial soil in Deszk, Hungary. In our field experiments, we obtained results of planting material production, planting methods and the optimized fertilization of sweet potato. Experimental plots were set up either with or without ridges. In heavy soils – where usually ridge planting is preferred –, in 2016, the production technology without ridges proved to be more effective. In 2017, however, we got opposite results: based on the result of the harvest, the production technology with ridges proved to be more effective. The transplants originating from cuttings from tubers (primary transplants) or from shoots (secondary transplants) did not show significant differences, however, in both years, yield levels were higher on ridges with secondary transplants.
 Sweet potato yield may vary widely among producers due to improper ridging and planting orientation. The aim of this study was to establish the proper ridging and planting orientation, so as to enhance constant reliable yields among sweet potato producing farmers.

The planting methods and planting density influence the growth and yield of crops. A field experiment was conducted with split-plot design using two planting methods (row and broadcast) and four planting densities (40, 50, 60, and 70 plants m-2) to observe the effect on yield and yield attributing characters of sesame in the field laboratory of Agronomy Department in Patuakhali Science and Technology University. The yield and yield components were significantly affected by planting methods. The row planting method showed higher yield and yield components than the broadcasting method. The yield and yield components were also affected by planting density. The plant height, the number of branches plant-1, the number of capsule plant-1, and 1000 seed weight were reduced with the increase of planting density except for yield. The highest yield (1358.0 kg ha-1) was obtained from 60 plants m-2 in the row planting method. Row planting method with 60 plants m-2 could be recommended for better yield of sesame.

Planting method is the one of the important agronomic interventions for enhancing productivity and quality of sugarcane. Right technique could enhance not only the cane yield but also input use efficiency. Increased use of better technologies, such as planting techniques, is essential to maintaining the production and productivity of the sugar industry in an ethical way. Additionally, it is necessary to improve the efficiency of the inputs used in sugarcane farming, particularly the prudent utilization of water and site-specific nutrient management. Planting techniques in sugarcane play a significant role in determining the overall productivity and sustainability of sugarcane cultivation. Proper planting techniques ensure that the sugarcane crop establishes well and produces higher yields. New planting techniques must be made widely known to producers to make sugarcane cultivation a sustainable and lucrative sector that contributes to national food security. Therefore, the development and adoption of enhanced planting methods and its impact on cane productivity and input usage efficiency for sustainable sugarcane farming system are described in this review in order to maintain cane production and its sustainability towards national food security. This review aims to enlist the impact of different planting methods on sugarcane productivity and input use efficiency.

Disease free and elite planting material propagated through in vitro propagation may prevent the spread of diseases particularly bacterial blight through infected planting material. However, there are certain misapprehensions about fruit quality of harvest from micro-propagated plants as compared to air layered or hardwood cutting raised plants. Keeping these facts under consideration, an elaborate study on comparative qualitative and quantitative evaluation of harvest from different types of planting material had been carried out during 2015-17 at ICAR-NRC on Pomegranate, Solapur. The terminal bearing non-significantly ranged from 25 to 28.30% across the different types of planting material. Fruit weight and aril to fruit ratio were found at par in harvest from the three types of planting material. Rind thickness and PLW, which generally play critical role in governing fruit shelf life, were also found at par in fruits from all the three types of planting materials. The rind to fruit ratio of fruits from hardwood cutting raised plants (0.41) was found significantly higher than air layered plants. The maximum ‘L*’ and ‘b*’ values of fresh fruits were recorded for fruits from air layered plants (60.76 and 31.65, respectively) and ‘a*’ value for fruits from TC raised plants (39.70). The results proved parity among fruit quality of harvests from different types of planting material in pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) cv. Bhagwa.

Full textAbstract:
Pineapple lily (Eucomis hybrids) has long, striking inflorescences that work well as a cut flower, but information is needed on proper production methods and postharvest handling protocols. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of bulb storage temperature and duration, production environment, planting density, and forcing temperatures on cut flower production of ‘Coral’, ‘Cream’, ‘Lavender’, and ‘Sparkling Burgundy’ pineapple lily. Stem length was greater in the greenhouse than the field and at the low planting density. Plants in the field at the low planting density had the shortest stem length for ‘Coral’ and ‘Cream’, but still produced marketable lengths of at least 30 cm. Planting density did not affect ‘Lavender’ and ‘Sparkling Burgundy’ stem length or number of marketable stems. The productivity (number of marketable stems per bulb) was affected only by planting density for ‘Coral’ and planting environment for ‘Cream’. Differences in stem quality and productivity differed for each cultivar and planting density over the next two seasons. The productivity of ‘Coral’ increased significantly from year to year, while the productivity of ‘Cream’ only significantly increased between the first and second years. The low planting density resulted in slightly more stems per bulb for ‘Coral’ over the next two seasons. Emergence after bulb storage treatments was highest in treatments where the bulbs were not lifted from the substrate and were subsequently grown at 18 °C. Bulbs grown in the warmest (18 °C) production temperature flowered soonest and had shorter stem lengths. For earliest flowering, bulbs should be stored in substrate in cool temperatures of at least 13 °C and forced at warm temperatures of at least 18 °C.

Due to the extreme weather that hit throughout the year resulted in the threat of rice plants falling down. It was known that the fall of rice plants was a limiting factor for obtaining high yields and quality of grain. Therefore, it was considered important to evaluate the resistance to fall in the general methods of planting rice in the area. Those were transplanting planting (TP) and direct seed planting (TBL). Based on this objective, we identified the morphophysiology of rice stems in the laying factor of 2 planting methods commonly used by farming communities, namely transplanting planting and direct seed planting. Identification was carried out by observing the morphology and physiology of the rice stalks, the laying index and the level of fall of rice plants in each planting method (TP and TBL). The result of the research was that the direct seed planting method (TBL) tends to show morphophysiological identification results that were not resistant to falling compared to the transplanting method (TP). The laying rate shown by TBL was accounting for 75.5% while transplanting (TP) was only 5.7% of the experimental unit area. Significant differences were observed in plant height, stem length, center of gravity height, laying index, laying level, stem internode length, stem internode width, bending moment and bending stress of the stem. In the experiment, it was also found that the grain was damaged due to the fall of the rice plant when the rice fields were flooded. Therefore, it is important to carry out agronomic management as part of sustainable mitigation of the risk of falling rice plants to support national food security

Muscadine (Vitis rotundifolia Michx.) vineyards can be difficult to establish due to poor vine growth or survival during the first year after planting. Effects of the planting hole (five types), root manipulation (three levels), and peat amendment (0% and 50%) on first-year growth were studied at two sites with different soil types: a sandy loam (well-drained) and a silty loam (moderately well-drained). The planting hole had the major effect at both sites; large holes (25 liters) shoveled with straight or angled sides resulted in more shoot and root dry weight and greater total root length than auger holes (21 liters) or small shovel holes (10 liters). Vine response to planting in a subsoil slot 0.5 m deep × 6 m long was similar to that in large holes in sandy soil and small holes in heavier soil. Root manipulation treatments had little effect on vine establishment. Root pruning at planting, with or without root separation, did not increase vine dry weight relative to an undisturbed root ball in either soil type, but total root length was increased by root pruning in the heavier silty loam soil. Peat amendment increased total root length in the sandy soil but not in the silty loam soil.

Field studies were conducted at Ladhowal, on sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) plant (2004-05 and 2005-06) and ratoon (2005-06 and 2006-07) crops to work out suitable combination of planting method and seed rate for sugar- cane plant-ratoon system. Three planting methods, viz. flat (conventional planting in 15 cm deep furrows spaced 75 cm apart), trench (planting in paired rows on both sides of trench 30 cm wide, 30 cm deep, spaced 120 cm apart), pit (60 cm dia meter, 45 cm deep, spaced 120 cm apart) along with three seeding rates, viz. 4.0 Uha (trans- planted), 8.0 t/ha (sett planting, recommended) and 16.0 t/ha (sett planting), were evaluated in split-plot design. Trench planting recorded the highest number of shoots and millable canes, whereas pit planting the highest single- cane weight. The planting method did not influence the cane and sugar yields in plant crop, but the ratoon-crop yield in trench was significantly higher than by conventional method, but was on a par with that of pit method. Use of 16.0 tlha seed significantly increased the cane and sugar yields of plant crop than both the lower seed rates, whereas the ratoon-crop yield did not vary among seed rates. The transplanted crop gave crop yield on a par with that of recommended seed. Trench planting showed significantly higher pol reading than pit method, in plant crop and, in ratoon crop 16 Uha seed gave significantly higher pol, brix and commercial cane sugar content than trans- planted crop. Trench planting using 8.0 Uha seed recorded the highest total net returns (Rs 73,800lha) as well as benefit: cost ratio (0.920) from sugarcane plant-ratoon system. Trench transplanting also gave higher economic re- turns than conventional planting with recommended seed.

The optimum time for sowing of Kharif maize in northern India is from last week of May to end of June. This period is characterized by a high evaporative demand due to high temperature and low relative humidity. The planting of maize during Kharif season experiences high rainfall in monsoon season which often causes temporary flooding in flat method of sowing. Planting methods in maize play a prominent role for reducing its water requirement when sown during Kharif season and also to save it from temporary flooding damage due to excessive rainfall during monsoon period. Excess water during the heavy rains especially on poorly drained soils also creates a great problem for maize cultivation as the crop is quite sensitive towards water stagnation. Best method of sowing is necessary to obtain maximum yield and higher net returns from maize cultivation. The findings of the various research scientists and eminent investigators will help in understanding effect of planting methods on growth, yield parameters, yield, quality and economics of maize. Among different planting methods, bed planting is found significant better in improving the growth, yield attributes, yield (grain and stover yield), quality and net returns in Kharif maize as compared to flat sowing method and it is followed by ridge sowing method. Bed and ridge planting methods give higher grain yield than the flat sowing method due to better crop growth and nutrient absorption. Water use efficiency and nutrient uptake was higher in bed planting as compared to flat and ridge planting methods.

Due to the high operating costs in our country, the area under potatoes is being reduced in many places, so the question arises of new technologies and technical means in potato growing. The cultivation of potatoes with preliminary preparation of the soil for planting by milling was studied. The volumetric mass of the soil after such treatment in the area of the tuber nest for the entire growing season remains in the range from 0.87 to 1.06 g/cmВі, which ensures good aeration of the tubers. Soil milling on an experimental field with an area of 15 hectares, on a farm in the Kursk region, Kursk district, when planting potatoes in April 2022, was carried out with a tiller FN-2.8 at a soil moisture content of 35%, which was aggregated with a class 1.4 tractor. The results of soil milling show that the degree of soil crumbling at the depth of planting potatoes is high. Soil density after milling reached 1.0-1.1 g/cmВі, while the weeds were completely destroyed. Pre-plant soil preparation, using a tiller, will reduce the loss of tubers and increase the yield of potatoes. Potatoes were planted in the same area. Potatoes were planted in the same area by potato planter KSM-4 with simultaneous application of mineral fertilizers in a unit with a tractor MTZ-80. When planting potatoes, the number of nests was provided on average 43...45 thousand per hectare, while maintaining the potato planting rate of 2.4 tons per hectare. The potato planter unit was serviced by a tractor driver and two auxiliary workers, who ensured the loading of potatoes and mineral fertilizers. In the future, it is planned to harvest potatoes with a modernized potato harvester KPK-2-01, in which an improved separating elevator with a pressure conveyor with rubbercoated blades is installed, which will allow harvesting on waterlogged soils.

otton is one of the most important crops in Golestan Province, Iran. The planting and harvesting date interferes with autumn crops such as wheat. A delay in planting cotton causes a decrease in yield. Transplanting cultivation can help to solve this problem. For this purpose, an experiment was carried out during two crop years in 2017 and 2018 in Iran, Golestan Province, Gorgan city, research station of Iraqi Mahlah in the form of a split plot based on randomized complete blocks design in four replications. Experimental treatments including planting dates at three levels including; Planting dates were May 27, June 16 and July 7 and planting methods were in seven levels (6 treatments using Transplanting and direct seeding methods). Quantitative traits including plant height, number of bolls per plant, lint weight per boll, lint yield and biological yield were measured along with cotton qualitative traits such as fiber length, stretch percentage, fiber fineness, fiber strength and uniformity index. Based on the results, the simple effect of planting dates, planting methods, as well as the interaction effect of planting dates × planting methods on all quantitative and qualitative traits were significant. Also, the interaction effect of year × planting date × planting method on the number of bolls per plant and biological yield was significant. The average lint yield in transplanting methods was 2256 kg per hectare and showed an increase of about 37% compared to direct seeding cultivation method. The best cultivation method it was that one with one seedling transplanted, the distance between the rows=75 cm and the distance on the rows=40 cm, the yields being higher as compared to other treatments. In general, the lint yield in direct seeding was much lower than the lint yield in transplanting cultivation. Also, the quality traits were affected by planting dates and planting methods, and in most cases, cotton quality traits were improved in the transplanting cultivation method. Therefore, if the cost of producing and transporting seedlings is economical, cotton transplanting is preferable to direct seeding cultivation.

The effect of rate and method of urea application on the yield of common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L., cv. IPA-1) was evaluated on a Red-Yellow Latosol (Psamentic Haplortox) of Arapiraca and on a Solodic Planosol (Ustalf) of Igaci, both sandy-clay-loams located in the State of Alagoas, Brazil. Rates of 30,60 and 90 kg N/ha were applied placing the urea totally in the furrow at planting time; totally sidedressed twenty days after planting, mixed or not with the soil; or 1/3 of the amount in the furrow at planting plus 2/3 sidedressed twenty days after planting, mixed or not with the soil. Bean yield responses to nitrogen followed quadratic equations. In the Red-Yellow Latosol response to nitrogen occurred up to the rate of 66 kg N/ha, while in the Solodic Planosol the yield increased up to the highest applied rate of 90 kg N/ha. The relative yield increase for each site was 22% and 16%, respectively. Sidedressed application of the total amount of urea resulted in the lowest yields, whereas split application and furrow fertilization were the best and equally effective methods. No significant yield increase was observed by mixing the urea with the soil.

The effects of planting date and plant density on total and marketable yield were examined for the edible dry beans `Aurora' and `Fleetwood', erect type I geneotype cultivars, over three years. For `Fleetwood' alone, fertilizer levels and application of a spray-on-soil polymer mulching material were examined for effects on yield. The mulching material was degraded by rain prior to canopy closure but patches were present at harvest. Using continous recording thermometers, temperatures over two week periods following sowing of `Fleetwood', from 23 cm below the surface of mulched and bare soil were converted to soil degree days (SDD). `Fleetwood' generally had higher yields than `Aurora'. Earlier planting improved yields. In one of three years increasing plant density increased yields. Increased fertilization did not affect yield. Application of mulch did not affect yield. However, spray-on-mulch did increase SDD after the earliest planting date. Cultural systems for existing production, or potential production areas, must be developed for the conditions of each location.

Cerrado soils have low boron (B) content, making supplementation of this element through fertilization via soil and/or leaf is a common practice. It is therefore important to establish the best mode of application and source of B for the proper development of eucalyptus. Thus, the objective of this study was to compare the effect of B sources with high and low solubility on eucalyptus cultivation and to examine the effect of foliar application of the micronutrient. The experiment was conducted in an area located at 20o 34’ S latitude and 51o 50’ W longitude with an altitude of 305 m during the period from January 2012 to February 2014. The experiment was set up using a randomised complete block design with six treatments and five replications, in a 3 x 2 factorial scheme, consisting of 0 kg ha-1 of B, 1 kg ha-1 of B using boric acid as a source (high solubility, 17% B) or 1 kg ha-1 of B using borogran as a source (low solubility, 10% B), applied to the planting furrow, with or without foliar application of 0.5% boric acid in a solution with a volume of 250 L ha-1. Except for the case of foliar B application, there was an increase in plant height in treatments that received the micronutrient at planting, which differed significantly from the control. However, both sources, independent of solubility, exhibited similar results. The two foliar B applications were sufficient to cause an increase in plant height when compared to treatments without B application at planting, at 21 months. At 24 months after planting, an increase in leaf B was observed in treatments with foliar application. However, this did not improve growth, diameter at breast height (DBH) or timber volume of the eucalyptus clone. Both the application of B at planting (independent of the source used) and the foliar application of the element were sufficient to reduce the symptoms of B deficiency. With respect to the sources used at planting, at a dose of 1 kg ha-1 of B, both sources produced similar results for plant height, DBH and timber volume.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract The use of plastic mulch and spunbonded row covers in melon production has increased in the past decade (2, 3,5). Research has shown that muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.) and watermelon [Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. & Nakai] can be grown successfully with black plastic mulch (BPM) and/or row covers. When row covers are used in combination with BPM, higher yields and earlier maturity of some crops are achieved than when BPM is used alone (1, 2, 5). Though numerous studies (1, 2, 4) have reported the benefits of black plastic mulch and row covers in melon production, information is limited on response of melons using these materials with different planting methods. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of BPM and row cover on direct-seeded and transplanted muskmelon production.

Full textAbstract:
An experiment was conducted at Varappur village, Pudukkottai district in Tamil Nadu to compare the performance of Improved TNAU drum seeder with SRI method of transplanting and conventional transplanting in rice cultivation. The row spacing adopted was 20 cm, 25 cm and 20 cm respectively for drum seeder, SRI method planting and conventional planting. The crop sown with drum seeder was matured 10 days earlier than the other methods. The number of tillers m -2 recorded was 452 in SRI planting, 405 in drum seeder sowing and 358 in conventional method. Regarding the water use efficiency water saving was up to 35 per cent in drum seeder than other methods because of early maturity of crop. The seed rate used was 8 kg ha -1 , 20 kg ha -1 and 40 kg ha -1 , respectively for SRI method of planting, drum seeder sowing and conventional method of planting. In the case of labour usage there was 90 per cent saving in the drum seeder method when compared to the other two methods. 75 per cent time saving observed in drum seeder sowing in comparison to the other two methods. The SRI method of planting recorded the highest grain yield (7.05 t ha-1 ) followed by (6.5 t ha-1 ) and conventional method (5.3 t ha -1 ).

Full textAbstract:
This research aimed to study the effect of organic sources under different planting methods on the population of earthworm in sugarcane plantation for plant and ratoon crop. The experiment was conducted at Regional Agricultural Research station, Anakapalle (Andhra Pradesh) on sandy loan soils under split split plot design with different planting methods, soil health management practices and nutrient levels. The main plots consisted of three planting methods M1: conventional planting, M2: paired row planting, M3: dual row planting along with four organic amendments as sub plots (Control, trash mulching + biodecomposer (A & B), green manuring with sunnhemp @ 37.5 kg ha-1 seed rate, green manuring with sunnhemp @ 25 kg ha-1 seed rate followed by intercropping) and two nutrient levels as sub sub plots (75% RDF + NPK biofertilizers and 100% RDF). The results showed that in the plant and ratoon crop significantly highest earthworm population was observed with green manuring with sunnhemp @ 25 kg ha-1 seed rate followed by intercropping and was found significantly superior to control treatment. Organic sources can improve both the physicochemical and biological properties of the soil under these conditions, which cousld improve soil ecosystem services and thus increasing the earthworm population.
