Deterioration of agricultural lands due to salinity is one of the serious threats in irrigated areas of the world. Confronting the influence of salinization in agriculture is a key for achieving food ... Read More
Suitable management techniques are required to improve soil nutrient availability and crop yield. This study evaluated biochar particle sizes (< 2 mm) showed the maximum 13, 17, 6 and 17% increase in ... Read More
Adsorption and precipitation are major mechanisms that play an imperative role in immobilization of phosphorus (P) in various texture soils thus limiting the crop yields. Soil organic matter (SOM) can ... Read More
This study estimated the effects of gypsum on the potassium and iron release rate from phlogopite under laboratory conditions. A randomized design with the factorial arrangement and three replications ... Read More
Air pollution has numerous distinct and hazardous influences upon living organisms. Faisalabad one of the most polluted and big industrial city with huge air quality problems. The lack of enough knowl ... Read More
A significant increase in food production, approximately 70%, is needed to feed the estimated 9.1 billion world population by 2050. Site-specific nutrient management through adoption of Precision Agri ... Read More
Andisols is a variable charge soil where fertilizations to the soil do not give the same result as that to the soils with permanent charges. Therefore, amelioration is needed to improve the soil chemi ... Read More
Potassium humate is one of the alternate sources of organic matter for improving physico-chemical properties of soils, crop growth and yield. The study investigated the effect of using different rates ... Read More
Climate change is a global phenomenon occurring throughout the world. Greenhouse gases (GHGs) especially carbon dioxide (CO2) considered to be the major culprit to bring these changes. So, carbon (C) ... Read More
Pakistan; a predominantly arid land region; has a large, growing, urbanizing and increasingly affluent population. Soil and water resources are finite, with per capita arable land area of 0.10 ha by 2 ... Read More
Under arid and semiarid climate conditions, application of muriate of potash (KCl) results in salinity problem due to its higher chloride (Cl- ) contents. In order to combat this problem, KCl was blen ... Read More
Agricultural land in Pakistan is decreasing due to development of infrastructure and in order to feed its masses, agricultural activities are shifting towards sloping land where soil loss through surf ... Read More
The use of organic manure is proposed to reduce the use of chemical fertilizers, as well as to add sulfur (S) into the soil so that the phosphate use efficiency may be improved by maize crop. This fie ... Read More
This study aims to investigate the effect of three tillage practices and the effect of polyacrylamide application rate on surface runoff and erosion of sandy loam soils differing in silt and clay cont ... Read More
Soil borne pathogens are responsible for considerable yield losses in field crops. Healthy growth and ultimate yield of the crop depends upon the efficient supply of water, nutrients and absence of bi ... Read More
Mungbean can successfully be grown in the small slots present in the existing cropping systems that may increase the farmer income and can also restore soil fertility. The inoculation of crop plants w ... Read More
Soil pH is one of the chemical properties influencing the nutrient bioavailability. Most of the Pakistani soils are calcareous in nature. Keeping in view the limitations of classical statistics for ex ... Read More
