Applications of metal oxide nanoparticles in the agriculture sector are being extensively included as materials considered superior. In present work, zinc nanoparticle (ZnO NPs), with a developing fertilizer, is applied fortification rice grain yield and nutrient uptake enhancement. To evaluate role ZnO NP, two field experiments were conducted during 2018 2019 seasons. NPs small, nearly spherical, their sizes equal to 31.4 nm, proved via dynamic light scattering technique. fertilizer...
Water stress is considered one of the most environmental hazards that threaten agricultural productivity. Therefore, two field experiments were conducted to investigate impact biochar (6 t ha-1 as soil amendment), ZnO NPs (50 mg L-1 foliar application), and their combination on growth, yield, water use efficiency (WUE) rice grown under four irrigation deficit treatments (i.e., every 3, 6, 9 12 d). The 3 d was control in current study. For this purpose, prepared through pyrolysis corn stalk...
The current study was designed to assess the effect of different concentrations silica oxide nanoparticles (SiO2NPs) (0, 30, 60, and 90 ppm) as foliar applications under three irrigation regimes i.e., every 3 days (IR3, control), 6 (IR6), 9 (IR9) on growth, yield certain metabolites rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. EHR1). To achieve such a goal, 2 field experiments were conducted during 2018 2019 seasons at Experimental Farm Rice Research Training Center (RRTC), Sakha Agricultural Station, Kafr...
In paddy fields, overuse of nitrogen fertilizer to maximize yields can lead excessive economic loss and degradation the environment. Therefore, studying effects urea–chitosan nanohybrid as a slow released source on rice cultivation was aim our study. The fertilization applications, namely: CU: control treatment; U1: application full recommended dose classical urea (165 kg N ha−1); U2: adding by 80% + exogenous 250 mg N/L; U3: 500 U4: 60% U5: U6: 40% U7: N/L growth indicators, yield-related...
The excessive application of synthetic fertilizers can result in severe environmental risks, while composting green and fresh feedstocks provide slow-release nutrients. Therefore, the aim current investigation was to study effects eight individual combination treatments azolla compost NPK (control = no fertilizer compost; 100% full recommended dose as follows: 165 kg N ha−1, 37 P2O5 ha−1 50 K2O ha−1; 70% NPK; 40% (5 t DM ha−1); 50% + 30% 60% compost) on rice growth, productivity nutrient...
Researchers have repeatedly emphasized how urgently we to decrease the massive nitrogen fertilizer consumption support agricultural productivity and maintain a sustainable ecosystem. Using chitosan (CS) as carrier for slow release is considered potential tool reducing synthetic improving crop productivity. Therefore, two field experiments were arranged in randomized complete block design investigate effects of seven treatments including exogenous application chitosan-based NPK nano-structure...
Studies were carried in the two seasons of 2017 and 2018 at Experimental Farm El-Sirw Agriculture Research Station, Damietta Governorate, Egypt.The main objective study was to determine effect foliar spraying with some chemical substances during panicle initiation+ mid booting stages on rice growth, yield, yield attributes grains quality characteristics cv.Giza179.The experimental design performed randomized complete block four replications.Foliar application treatments 1-Control...
Field experiments were conducted in the 2018 and 2019 seasons at Experimental Farm of Sakha Agriculture Research Station, Kafr-ELSheikh, laboratory Seed Technology Department, Crops Institute A.R.C. Giza, Egypt. The study aimed to evaluate influence different potassium application methods as follow, control treatment (no application), 50 Kg K2O/ha one basal batch two splits, ½ 25 days after sowing foliar concentrations (0, 0.5, 1 1.5 % K2O) on Giza 179 rice variety. Twelve combinations...
