Influence of Planting Dates on NPK Composition in Soybean Cultivars: A Comparative Analysis | Chapter 10 | Current Research Progress in Agricultural Sciences Vol. 2

 

The present study explores the influence of planting dates on NPK composition in soybean cultivars, conducting a comparative analysis across various planting schedules. Legumes provide a protein-rich source of food which is an essential part of the diets of people inhabiting in the tropics.. Growth, development, and production of Soybean Glycine max (L.) are negatively impacted by delayed planting dates and poor environmental circumstances. The nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium accumulation at harvest and nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium content in seed impacted by changes in photoperiod, temperature, and precipitation with delayed planting. Extremely high temperatures and drought stress are examples of environmental variables that negatively impact plant development and productivity and are frequently linked to delayed planting. The finding reveals significant variation in the NPK composition contingent on planting dates, underscoring the importance of optimal timing for planting. This study also provides valuable insights for farmers and agronomists seeking to optimize soybean production through strategic planting schedules.

Determining the Effect of Various Sowing Dates on Yield and Yield Components of Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) Varieties in Ethiopia | Chapter 11 | Emerging Issues in Agricultural Sciences Vol. 3

 The present study deciding the effect of Various Sowing Dates on Yield and Yield Components of Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) Varieties. Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is the second most important beat crop globally, subsequently common grain (Phaseolus vulgaris). It delivers benefits to cultivation systems that range from a tinier carbon footmark due to organic nitrogen fixation to enhanced soil health. A field experiment was administered at Toke Kutaye District in Nega-file kebele on farmer’s field during September, 2019 to November, 2019 under rain fed environments of the main cropping season. Treatments incorporated four sowing dates (September 4th, September 14th, September 24th, and October 5th) and four kabuli varieties of chickpea; that is to say Dube (standard check), Dalota, Teji and Ejere. Among the tested verities, Dalota type produced the maximal grain yield and erect suitable for Toke Kutaye and related agro-ecologies. Dalota variety created the highest number of pods (79.7) per plant. the main belongings of sowing date and varieties were considerably different on organic yield. Highest biological yield (3776.9 kg ha-1 and 3761 kg ha-1) were written from September 24th and September 14th sown plots, individually. Among varieties proven, the highest organic yield (3723.8 kg ha-1) was obtained from local type. Highest grain yield (2415.4 kg ha-1) was written from plots sown on September 14th inasmuch as Dalota variety produced best grain yield (2051.25 kg ha-1). In case of harvest index, maximal (67.9% and 59.6%) was recorded from September 14th planted plots and Dalota variety, individually. It is concluded that between all tested situations, the Dalota variety and the September 14th sowing date prominented as the best and maybe suggested for the result of chickpeas in the study area.

Response of Chickpea Varieties to Different Sowing Dates at Toke Kutaye District, Ethiopia | Chapter 10 | Emerging Issues in Agricultural Sciences Vol. 3

 Native bacterial microflora from traditional dumping yards will improve the agriculture solid waste administration and under stress surroundings particular bacterial consortia will produce a variety of enzymes in the way that protease, lipase, and amylase. The majority of agricultural waste is containing residues like cellulose, lignin, chitin, keratin, and jam, which can only be shabby by naturally occurring microorganisms, fungi, protozoa, and actinomycetes that are worthy doing the task. In addition, microbes are important in the disruption of various land wastes. Agriculture wastes are swiftly controlled by efficient native bacteria that produce eco-friendly, inexpensive dynamic substrates from the field itself and build compost beds above ground level to prevent referring to practices or policies that do not negatively affect the environment damage. At intervals of four days, consortium native bacterial civilizations are added to the beds while the hotness and moisture are held neverending. After 28 days, the material breakdown converts into fertilizer, and this final microbial fertilizer is added to the vermicomposting process to produce vermicompost. The custom of bacteria can have favorable unending environmental belongings on the ecosystem.

Effect of Real Time Rainfall Pattern on Yield and Yield Attributing Parameters of Toria (Brassica campestris) in an Inceptisols of Assam, India | Chapter 04 | Emerging Challenges in Environment and Earth Science Vol. 2

 "Effect of Real Time Rainfall Pattern on Yield and Yield Attributing Parameters of Toria (Brassica campestris) in an Inceptisols of Assam, India" was studied in the experimental field of AICRP for Dryland Agriculture, Biswanath college of Agriculture, Assam Agricultural University, Biswanath chariali, Assam during the rabi seasons of 2018-19 and 2019-20 under AICRPDA, Factor 1: Sowing dates with four levels (S1-41st SMW, S2-44th SMW, S3-46th SMW, and S4-48th SMW), and factor 2: variety with three levels (V1-JT-90-1(Jeuti), V2-Yellow sarson (Benoy), and V3-TS-38). The effects of varied sowing dates on toria cultivars' growth, yield, and yield attributing features were observed. At 30 DAS, 45 DAS, and 60 DAS, respectively, S1 had higher plant height (43.2 cm, 92.9 cm, and 106.6 cm & 40.2 cm, 89.8 cm, and 101.5 cm) and number of branches (3.8, 5.3, and 7.2 & 3.4, 5.1 and 6.9). With the advancement of sowing dates, yield attributing features such as number of siliqua, number of seeds per siliqua, and 1000 seed weight (g) steadily reduced. V1 (Jeuti) had the highest seed yield (8.9 q ha-1 and 8.1 q ha-1) and stover yield (23.4 q ha-1 and 22.2 q ha-1) among the three varieties in 2018-19 and 2019-20, respectively. S1 had the highest and lowest HI (28.5 and 25.8%, respectively), whereas S4 had the lowest (20.7 percent and 14.6 percent ).
