Summary

Weed management studies in onions grown from seedlings were conducted during 2006 and 2007 at the National Agricultural Research Centre, Islamabad, Pakistan. Applications of pendimethalin at 0.825 l a.i. ha–1, or oxadiazon at 0.240 l a.i. ha–1, 2 d after transplanting (DAT) seedlings were evaluated alone, and in combination with one manual weeding, for their effects on weed competition and bulb yields. Other weed control treatments included the application of rice straw mulch 2 weeks after transplanting (WAT) combined with one manual weeding at 9 WAT, or a newspaper and rice straw mulch applied 2 WAT. Compared to the weed-free situation, competition with weeds caused reductions in bulb yields of 62% and 68% during the first and second year, respectively. Polygonum plebejum, Amaranthus viridis, Cyperus rotundus, and Coronopus didymus were the dominant weeds recorded in the field. Mulching reduced weeds by 56 – 60% compared to the chemical weed treatments. Compared to the weed-free treatment (four manual weedings at monthly intervals), which is a traditional method to control weeds in onion, bulb yields increased significantly under the rice straw mulch or when treated with pendimethalin in combination with one manual weeding at 9 WAT. The latter two treatments, on average, resulted in the highest increases of 26 t ha–1 and 24 t ha–1 in bulb yields with net returns of US$ 1,522 ha–1 and US$ 1,486 ha–1, respectively over the non-treated control.  相似文献

Oil cake, widely used as an organic source of nutrients in horticultural production in South Korea, is a by-product when oil is extracted from various oilseeds. Split applications of oil cake were supplied to evaluate their effects on tree growth and fruit production in organic, non-astringent persimmon (Diospyros × kaki Thunb.) trees in 2009 and in 2010. Treatments included a single annual application of oil cake at 150 kg N ha?1 in April (single application), two applications in April and July (105 and 45 kg N ha?1, respectively; two-split application), or three applications in April, June, and August (60, 45, and 45 kg N ha?1, respectively; three-split application), as well as zero application of oil cake (control). All applications of oil cake significantly increased the amount of ground-cover vegetation compared to the control. The single and two-split applications increased soil organic matter (OM), K2O, CaO, and MgO concentrations, and cation exchange capacity to a soil depth of 0–30 cm in 2010. Oil cake applications increased soil porosity in 2010, as well as overall chlorophyll (SPAD values) and macronutrient concentrations in leaves in 2009 and 2010. Single and two-split applications stimulated water-sprout development, reduced the light intensity inside the tree canopy, and increased fruit drop. Fruit yield was higher in the two-split [24.7 metric tonnes (MT) ha?1] and three-split application trees (25.0 MT ha?1) compared to zero application control trees (19.8 MT ha?1) and single application trees (21.0 MT ha?1) in 2010. A single application resulted in soft fruit and slow skin colouration during maturation. Total soluble solids contents were higher in the control and three-split application trees in both years. The three-split application in 2010 increased the estimated production income by approx. 21% compared to the zero application, and by approx. 33% compared to a single application of oil cake.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Brassica seed meal amendments and anaerobic soil disinfestation (ASD) control a spectrum of soil-borne plant pathogens via a diversity of mechanisms. Transformations in microbial community structure and function in certain instances were determinants of disease control and enhanced plant performance. For instance, in strawberry field soils, increased strawberry yields in response to ASD were attained in a carbon-source input-dependent manner. ASD conducted with rice bran as the carbon input, but not molasses, resulted in significantly greater yields. Effective ASD treatments, but not ineffective treatments, resulted in increased abundance of bacteria in phylum Bacteroidetes in treated soils, specific genera of which are known to provide biological disease control. Brassica seed meal amendment resulted in development of a soil system suppressive towards disease incited by the root pathogen Macrophomina phaseolina. Brassica seed meal treated orchard soil systems exhibit resistance to re-infestation by soil-borne pathogens, including the plant parasitic nematode Pratylenchus penetrans. System resistance is associated with significant and prolonged changes in rhizosphere microbiology and specifically amplification of specific organisms with potential to parasitize P. penetrans.  相似文献

Summary

Orchards displaying calcium (Ca) deficiency are a common phenomenon worldwide, despite the presence of sufficient Ca in the soil and the plant. A 3-year trial was conducted between the 2007 – 2008 and 2009 – 2010 growing seasons to evaluate the contributions of soil and foliar Ca applications to Ca concentrations in ‘Braeburn’ apple (Malus × domestica Borkh.) fruit. Ca(NO3)2 (Calflo; Yara Africa, Fourways North, South Africa) was applied as six separate foliar sprays until run-off. Applications were made at 1-week intervals between approx. 21 – 70 d after full bloom (DAFB) at 6.75 ml l–1. Soil applications of Ca (TropicoteTM; International ASA, Oslo, Norway) at 300 kg ha–1 were applied at fruit set, or after harvest, according to standard practice. Mineral analysis was conducted to assess the soluble Ca concentrations of whole fruit (without pips and stalks), to quantify the contribution of foliar sprays or soil-applied Ca. Fruit Ca concentrations were maintained at satisfactory levels (4.5 mg Ca 100 g–1 FW) at harvest by applying a series of six foliar sprays early in the season (for all seasons) during the trial period. Fruit Ca concentrations at 80 DAFB were highest in the treatments with foliar applications of Ca. In 2009 – 2010, Ca concentrations in apple fruit were lowest (8.38 mg 100 g–1 FW) for soil application of Ca at fruit set. Ca applications to soil after harvest in the previous season, and soil applications shortly after fruit set in the current season, did not significantly increase Ca concentrations in current-season fruit, providing soil Ca levels were above the minimum requirement for apple trees. A possible explanation is that apple trees regulate their uptake of Ca through the roots when soil Ca is available in sufficient quantities. This confirms the importance of active root growth for efficient Ca uptake by apple trees when applying Ca to the soil.  相似文献

Summary

The present study was undertaken over two consecutive years under sub-temperate climatic conditions in the mid-hill region of Himachal Pradesh (30°52'N, 77°11'E; 1,175 m asl) on loamy sand Inceptisols. The aim was to investigate the effects of irrigation and mulch material on the growth, flowering, fruiting behaviour, relative leaf water content (RLWC), yield, and quality of strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa L. ‘Chandler’). The drip irrigation treatments included irrigation with 100, 80, or 60% (coded 1.0, 0.8, and 0.6 V) of the total water requirement. Both mulches increased the minimum soil temperature to a depth of 5 cm. The drip and surface irrigation treatments raised the minimum soil temperature by 3.0º – 5.4ºC, and lowered the maximum temperature by 2.2º – 5.8ºC compared to the rainfed control. Hay mulch was more effective in raising the minimum temperature and lowering the maximum soil temperature than black polyethylene mulch. Moisture conservation increased by 2.8 – 12.8% under the black polyethylene mulch compared to the no-mulch treatment. Drip and surface irrigation methods, as well as mulching, were found to be effective for enhancing the growth, irrigation water use efficiency (IWUE), fruit yield, and quality of strawberry plants. However, the number of crowns per plant, the percentage berry set, the RLWC, root length density (RLD), and fruit yield were highest under treatment M3I3 [i.e., black polyethylene mulch plus drip irrigation (1.0 V)] by 565.5%, 94.5%, 32.8%, 394.5%, and 549.6%,respectively, compared to the no mulch plus rainfed control. The maximum IWUE values for plant biomass [1.39 metric tonnes (MT) ha–1 m–1] and fruit yield (2.79 MT ha–1 m–1) were recorded under treatment M3I5 [i.e., black polyethylene mulch plus drip irrigation (0.6 V)]; whereas, the lowest values (0.39 and 0.68 MT ha–1 m–1, respectively) were observed using treatment M1I2 (i.e., without mulch, plus surface irrigation). Fruit size, weight, sugar content, and anthocyanin content increased significantly under treatment M2I3 [i.e., hay mulch, plus drip irrigation (1.0 V)] compared with all other treatments. Total soluble solids (TSS) contents and total acidity (TA) were highest under treatment M1I1 (i.e., no mulch, plus rainfed). A linear regression model could describe the variations in quality parameters of strawberry plants grown under sub-temperate climatic conditions. Root density was found to be the best indicator with which estimate fruit quality.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Since 1997, our IFAPA working group has developed a series of projects to evaluate new chemical and non-chemical soil disinfestation practices. During 2013–14 non-chemical (biological) alternatives have been tested with the objective of improving the biosolarization techniques, using different carbon sources and doses of organic biofumigant products under different types of plastic tarp. Throughout the growing season, the greatest production for cv. Florida Fortuna (52,672 kg/ha, by the end of May) was obtained with biosolarization using dried olive pomace (12,500 kg/ha) and virtually impermeable film; whereas biosolarization with chicken manure at 25,000 kg/ha had the lowest fruit production (42,517 kg/ha) among biosolarization treatments. Biosolarization treatments significantly reduced soil populations of M. phaseolina and Fusarium spp., and effectively suppressed nematode infestation.  相似文献

Summary

Two field experiments during 1996-98 at Bangalore, India studied the effect of soil moisture regimes (0.3, 0.6 and 0.9 IW:CPE ratios) irrigation water cumulative pan evaporation (IW:CPE) ratios and three levels of nitrogen application (0,100 and 200 kg ha–1). Another experiment investigated three irrigation levels (0.3, 0.6 and 0.9 IW:CPE ratios), two levels of nitrogen application (100 and 200 kg ha–1) and organic mulch (0 and 5 t ha–1) on oil content, herbage, oil yield and quality of geranium grown on alfisols. Soil moisture maintained at 0.6-0.9 IW:CPE ratios significantly increased both the herbage and oil yields of geranium. Application of 200 kg N ha–1 gave maximum herbage and oil yield compared with those obtained from 0 and 100 kg N ha–1. Organic mulch increased the oil yield of geranium. The concentration and quality of essential oil were not influenced either by soil moisture regime, N rates or organic mulch.  相似文献

Field studies were conducted in 2007 and 2008 in North Carolina to determine the response of the weed Maryland meadowbeauty and blueberry to flumioxazin PRE (pre-emergence). No injury to non-bearing (blueberry plants not mature enough to produce fruit) or bearing (blueberry plants mature enough to produce fruit) blueberry from flumioxazin PRE was observed. In non-bearing blueberry, control of meadowbeauty was greater than 97% 90 DAT (days after treatment) with the registered rate of 0.42 kg ai ha–1 flumioxazin. Across two studies in bearing blueberry, a single application of flumioxazin at 0.42 kg ai ha–1 controlled meadowbeauty 79% to 92% 90 DAT. Flumioxazin at 0.21 kg ai ha–1 applied twice 60 d apart resulted in greater than 96% meadowbeauty control 90 d after the first application. Treatments of flumioxazin applied as a single application or two applications applied sequentially 60 d apart in bearing blueberry had yields ranging from 3150 to 6065 kg ha–1and 3551 to 5735 kg ha–1, respectively, and did not have a negative effect on blueberry yield regardless of application rate compared to the nontreated check.  相似文献

During strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) freeze protection, the standard practice is applying sprinkler irrigation on plant canopies to prevent and reduce freezing damage. This method is highly inefficient because it uses large volumes of water. The overall goal of this study was to compare the effects of freeze protection methods on water savings, and growth and fruit weight of strawberry. Treatments consisted of the following: sprinkler heads delivering 17 L?min–1, sprinkler heads delivering 13 L?min–1, light-weight row covers (21 g?m–2) on the crop canopy, light-weight row covers on 60-cm-high mini-tunnel hoops, heavy-weight row covers (31 g?m–2) on the crop canopy, heavy-weight row covers on 60-cm-high mini-tunnel hoops, and foliar application of a polymer (Desikote). There were eight freezing and near freezing nights (≤1.1 °C) at the experimental site during both seasons with a minimum air temperature of –2.8 °C. Minimum temperature inside the row covers ranged between 0.6 to 4.4 °C at the canopy level. There were significant treatment effects on early and total marketable fruit weights. The highest early marketable fruit weight was found in plots protected with light-weight row covers with hoops, heavy-weight row covers on canopy, and foliar polymer, ranging between 5.0 to 5.5 t?ha–1. For total marketable fruit weight, using non-irrigation methods resulted in the highest fruit weight with 23.0 t?ha–1. In conclusion, data showed that using non-irrigation techniques provided satisfactory freeze protection under the evaluated conditions and increased total marketable fruit weight, possibly due to reduced injury of fruits and flowers when using alternative techniques.  相似文献

Summary

The essential oil yields and expression of related characters were compared for seven cultivar genotypes of menthol mint Mentha arvensis using two methods of planting in the winter rabi – summer season (October to July) in a sub-tropical agroclimatic environment. The crops of all the cultivars were planted in the field by (1) sowing of suckers on 2 January and (2) transplanting germinated pieces of sucker at different times between 17 March to 14 April. Staggering of transplanting time up to 7 April did not affect oil yields and the related plant growth properties of mint crops. The oil yields of the crops planted on 14 April were lower by about 30%. In the early sucker planted crops, the oil yields were about 30% higher than those obtained from the transplanted crops of 17 March to 7 April and about double that obtained from crops transplanted on 14 April. The oil yields from the crops of the superior genotype Kosi were equal to or higher than the corresponding means of all genotypes under both planting methods. The oil yield from the crops of Kosi genotype obtained by sucker sowing method was estimated as 333 kg ha–1. The corresponding average yield from the crops of this genotype obtained by transplanting of germinated suckers between 17 March and 7 April was about 293 kg ha–1 and that from the crop transplanted on 14 April was 218 kg ha–1. With the Kosi genotype, the latter two types of transplanted mint crops gave oil yields lower only by about 12% and 33% compared with the long-duration sucker-sown crop. It is concluded that a crop of mustard (brassica), Bengalgram (chickpea) or wheat sown between October and November and harvested between early March to middle of April could be taken before cropping of the Kosi genotype of M. arvensis by plantlet transplanting. These results demonstrate the potential of the following rotation of crops in the sub-tropical environments: from June/July/August to October/November (kharif cropping season), rice, maize, sorghum or pigeonpea; from November/December to February/March, mustard and Bengalgram or from November/December to April (rabi cropping season), wheat; from March/April to June/July (zaid cropping season), transplanted menthol mint.  相似文献

Summary

Essential oil of rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L.) possesses good olfactory properties and is suitable for use in perfumes, soaps and fragrances. Field experiments were conducted over 2 years (2003-2005) in an area experiencing a semi-arid tropical climate, to study the influence of two N levels (150 or 300 kg N ha–1 year–1) and three K levels (41.5, 83.0 or 124.5 kg K ha–1 year–1), or no fertiliser, on the growth, herbage and oil yields and nutrient uptake patterns of rosemary. The results showed that application of 300 kg N ha–1 year–1 produced higher herbage and oil yields in rosemary, compared with 150 or 0 kg N ha–1 year–1. The application of 83.0 kg K ha–1 year–1 produced maximum herbage and oil yields, compared with 0 or 41.5 kg K ha–1 year–1. Total N and K uptake levels were increased significantly by the application of N and K. Nitrogen uptake increased by 85.2% and 137.7%, and K by 80.9% and 123.9%, respectively, with the application of 150 or 300 kg N ha–1 compared to controls (no N). Similarly, N uptake increased by 96.1%, 130.2% and 113.6%, and K by 79%, 124.3% and 110.4%, respectively, with the application of 41.5, 83.0, or 124.5 kg K ha–1 compared to controls (no K). Oil content and oil composition were not influenced by nitrogen or potassium levels.  相似文献

This study was conducted in 2007 and 2008 in order to determine the effects of irrigation frequency on the yield and quality parameters of dwarf trees of the apple cultivar ‘Gala, Galaxy’ in the first and second year of cultivation. Irrigation water was applied at 3?, 5?, 7?, and 10-day intervals as much as the amount of water consumed from the field capacity. Statistical analysis revealed that the effects of irrigation frequency on yield were significant. Since the trees used in the experiment showed mainly vegetative growth, the effects of irrigation frequency on the fruit quality characteristics varied. Irrigation water amount was applied as 355.7–446.5 mm and 359.2–538.9 mm to the experimental treatments in 2007 and 2008, respectively. The evapotranspiration measured was in the range 400.7–491.5 mm in 2007 but in the range 440.2–600.5 mm in 2008, while the yields in the same years ranged from 1.54 to 2.84 t ha?1 and from 2.61 to 6.06 t ha?1. Water use efficiency varied between 2.40 and 4.80 t ha?1mm?1 in the first year of the experiment but between 3.45 and 7.08 t ha?1mm?1 in the second year. The I2 treatment, in which the highest yield and water use efficiency were recorded in both years of the experiment under the experimental conditions, was determined as the irrigation scheduling.  相似文献

Summary

Mature slender spindle ‘Jonagold’/M.9 apple (Malus × domestica Borkh.) trees were thinned using 10 mg l–1 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) or 100 mg l?1 6-benzyladenine (BA) and an axial fan sprayer at a spray volume of 1,500 l ha?1 applied to the whole canopy, or with smaller volumes, where only the upper half of each canopy was sprayed. Partial spray applications of NAA or BA (at 1,000 l ha?1, 750 l ha?1, or 500 l ha?1) to the upper half of the trees did not cause any reduction in final fruit numbers on the upper half, or on the lower half of each tree. When the whole tree was sprayed to run-off with the same thinning agent, or at 1,500 l ha?1, successful thinning on both the upper and lower parts of the canopy occurred. Good spray coverage (from 51% to 77%) was also observed on leaves at all canopy positions measured, when whole trees were sprayed at 1,500 l ha?1.The development of an innovative crop load regulation strategy was an objective of the ISAFRUIT Smartfruit Project.  相似文献

In drip irrigation experiments where water was applied daily it was found that low water tensions could be maintained in the soil to a range of 10 to 20 centibars and that these conditions had a considerable influence on yield and quality of processing tomatoes, Lycopersicon esculentum cv VF 317. The response of the plant in different growth stages to low soil water tensions was studied. Irrigation during the period of fruit set and fruit development was found to increase yield levels by 53 t ha-1 compared with non-irrigated plants. Irrigation applied only during the period of fruit development had a favourable influence on yield as well as on the efficiency of water utilization. However, irrigation at this stage had an unfavourable influence on fruit quality characteristics, namely, total soluble solids, acidity, viscosity and vitamin C. The effects of irrigation on fruit set and fruit development are discussed.  相似文献

Fertigation has the potential to reduce extra chemical load by improving nutrient and water use efficiency of coconut (Cocos nucifera L.), but studies demonstrating the fertilizer reduction through drip irrigation in comparison to conventional ring basin method are rare in the Eastern Indo-Gangetic Plains (IGP) of South Asia. A long-term field experiment was conducted during 2007–2013 in West Bengal, India, to study the effect of fertigation on coconut var. DXT. The experiment was laid out in a randomised complete block design (RCBD) with six treatments (control – no fertilizers and water applied with drip irrigation; 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% of the recommended dose of fertilizer (RDF), each applied with drip irrigation; and 100% of the RDF and water applied with ring basin method of irrigation (i.e., conventional method)). Nuts yield was significantly higher for 75% of RDF (24.44 t ha?1 year?1) followed by 100% of RDF, each drip irrigation (23.79 t ha?1 year?1) compared to control (21.89 t ha?1 year?1). Copra yield was significantly higher for 75% of RDF (3.19 t ha?1) compared to 100% of RDF (3.12 t ha?1) and no fertilizer (1.87 t ha?1). Nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) contents of soil increased by 4.9%, 10.4% and 9.4%, respectively, with 75% of RDF applied through drip irrigation. Microbial population showed inverse relationship with amount of fertilizer application. The most water-use efficient fertigation treatment was 75% RDF (13.48 kg copra m?3) followed by 100% RDF (13.18 kg copra m?3) with drip irrigation as compared to conventional way soil application of fertilizers through ring basin method of irrigation (4.23 kg copra m?3). Role of N on yield variability was most prominent by both available soil N status (R2 = 0.49**) and leaf N concentration (R2 = 0.51**). The study indicated that there is a great scope for reducing the N, P and K fertilizers by up to 25% of the present RDFs for coconut when applied through drip irrigation compared to ring basin method of irrigation for its higher productivity and profitability through efficient use of nutrients and water in the Eastern IGP of South Asia.  相似文献

Summary

A field experiment was conducted over five years (1992–97) at Bangalore (13.58N, 77.558E, 930.m above mean sea level) to study the effect of nitrogen application (0, 50, 100 and 150.kg N ha–1 year–1) on yield, oil quality and soil fertility of lemongrass (Cymbopogon fiexuosus) in the semi-arid tropical conditions of South India. Fresh herbage yield of lemongrass differed significantly between years; the yields increased up to the second year after which they started to decline. During the five years, the response to nitrogen was linear, while still maintaining the same content and quality of essential oil. The oil content and chemical composition of oil did not change as the crop aged. Application of nitrogen and phosphorus maintained the fertility of the soil while potassium depletion was noticed.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Finding effective non-fumigant solutions to soil disinfestation is an international priority for sustainable strawberry production. In these studies at Ventura, California, combinations of steam, solarization, and mustard meal were evaluated to manage troublesome soil-borne pathogens: Macrophomia phaseolina and Fusarium oxysporum. Treatments containing steam and solarization reduced levels of these pathogens in soil 70–96% compared to untreated soil and had lower rates of late season pathogen-related plant mortality. All treatments improved plant canopy growth and fruit production of ‘San Andreas’ strawberry 58% to 83% compared to untreated control. Even though these treatments did not eradicate pathogen spores and sclerotia in soil, they enhanced early and whole season fruit production and when feasible can be applied in non-fumigated and organic strawberry fields to help sustain production.  相似文献

Summary

Apogee® sprays were applied to mature ‘Bartlett’ pear (Pyrus communis L.) trees as single or multiple sprays during the growing seasons of 1999 to 2003 at concentrations of 420 g ha–1 (125 mg –1) or 840 g ha–1 (250 mg–1): both reduced vegetative shoot growth. Two sprays of 840 g ha–1 applied 3–3.5 weeks apart were most effective and reduced shoot growth by approximately 40%. An application made 2 d after fall bloom was ineffective and led to more vegetative shoot growth. Single sprays of Apogee® made within 9–28 d after full bloom (DAFB) were equally effective in reducing vegetative shoot growth. Bourse shoot growth was reduced 43% by 3 April, 2001 (8 DAFB) treatment of 840 g ha–1 when bourse and vegetative shoots ranged from 2.5 to 7.5 cm in length. Subsequent single applications of 840 g ha–1 Apogee® (on April 12 or 23, 2001) did not reduce bourse shoot growth significantly. Vegetative shoot growth was also reduced by 12% (9 d after treatment) and by 38% (approximately one month after treatment) by 840 g ha–1 Apogee® applied on 3 April, 2001, (8 DAFB). In 2002, bourse shoot growth was controlled most effectively by split applications (840 + 420 g ha–1 or 840 2 g ha–1, 9 April and 24 May) and by 840 g ha–1 Apogee®, applied at 2.5 to 7.5 cm shoot growth (9 April). These split applications, as well as girdling, decreased shoot strikes in 2002, the year after treatment. Split applications of 840 g ha–1 Apogee® made in April to early May were most effective in controlling both vegetative and bourse shoot growth in most years, although single applications of Apogee® were effective in some years. Subsequent flushes of shoots tended to be controlled by split applications with the second application timed to the emergence of new shoots. Apogee® was not consistently effective in reducing the incidence of Type I or Type V secondary flowers in these trials. Single or multiple sprays of Apogee® had no measurable or consistent effect on return bloom, fruit size or shape, firmness, percentage soluble solids, or yield per tree over the period of these experiments. Apogee® appears to have promise as a shoot growth control agent in ‘Bartlett’ pear growing in California, USA, without deleterious effects.  相似文献

Summary

A field experiment was conducted during 2008 and 2009 at Bangalore, India, to study the effect of the amount of irrigation water applied (20, 25, or 30 mm per irrigation), the method of irrigation (i.e., flat-bed, or broad-bed and furrow) and nitrogen level (0, 50, or 100 kg N ha–1) on herbage and oil yields, nitrogen (N) uptake, and water-use efficiency of patchouli [Pogostemon cablin (Blanco) Benth.]. At the highest level of N (100 kg N ha–1), the broad-bed and furrow method was better suited for irrigating patchouli compared with the flat-bed method of irrigation. The highest herbage yield was achieved following the application of 100 kg N ha–1 and 30 mm water per irrigation. However, with 25 mm irrigation, the broad-bed and furrow method increased N uptake (45.7 kg ha–1) significantly compared with the flat-bed method of irrigation (36.7 kg ha–1). The broad-bed and furrow method of irrigation increased the water-use efficiency significantly compared with the flat-bed method of irrigation. The content and quality of patchouli oil were not influenced by the amount of irrigation water, the method of irrigation, or N-level.  相似文献

Cardoon (Cynara cardunculus L.) is considered as one of the most suitable energy crops for Southern Europe. The aim of this work was to outline the effects of organic fertilisers on the productivity and the global warming potential (GWP) on cardoon production. Six fertilisers (N 100 kg ha?1, N 50 kg ha?1, Compost 30 t ha?1, Compost 15 t ha?1 + N 25 kg ha?1, 3 t ha?1 of defatted oilseed meals of sunflower, 3 t ha?1 of defatted oilseed meals of Brassica carinata), and unfertilised control, were evaluated on two cultivars (‘Gobbo di Nizza’ and ‘Altilis 41’) in a split-plot experiment. Defatted oilseed meal of sunflower recorded higher total dry weight (+10%), seed yield (+17%), nitrogen use efficiency (+14%) and better GWP (?66%) compared to the other organic fertilisers and performing as well as N 100 kg ha?1. Altilis 41 cultivar showed the highest aboveground total dry weight (10 t ha?1 y?1), seed yield (1.7 t ha?1 y?1), stalk dry weight (7 t ha?1 y?1) and head dry weight (3 t ha?1 y?1). Our results highlighted that by combining suitable cultivar and fertilisation strategies, it could be possible to increase the production sustainability of C. cardunculus.  相似文献
