Effects of twice harvesting on total dry matter yield of rice

Field Crops Research, 2007
Abstract We examined the effect of twice harvesting of forage rice with the first harvest at the full heading stage on total dry matter yield in the cultivars Taporuri, Mohretsu, and Hinohikari and in line Saikaishi 253 in southwestern Japan. Taporuri produced the highest total dry matter yield, with a value 60% higher than that of Hinohikari.

The importance of early dry matter and nitrogen accumulation in soybean yield

European Journal of Agronomy, 1998
Abstract A field study was conducted to assess the effect of inoculation and N fertilizer on the amount of dry matter and N accumulation and redistribution in soybean [ Glycine max (L.) Merrill], and to examine their association with yield. The soybean cultivar Williams was grown in a silty clay (Typic Xerorthent) soil, free of Bradyrhizobium ...

The comparative yield method for estimating dry matter yield of pasture

Australian Journal of Experimental Agriculture and Animal Husbandry, 1975
This paper describes a new method for estimating pasture yield in which the yields of random quadrats are rated with respect to a set of reference quadrats preselected in the field to provide a scale which is available for reference throughout the sampling.

Dry matter and hydrocarbon yields of Calotropis procera

Biomass, 1982
Abstract Calotropis procera was evaluated during four years of production as a source of high quality hydrocarbon-like materials (biocrude). In the second and third growth seasons, the fruit was found to contain the highest level of biocrude while the leave and stems contained approximately one-half the concentration. Dry matter and biocrude yields

Dry Matter, Grain Yield, and Yield Components of Dry Bean as Influenced by Nitrogen Fertilization and Rhizobia

Communications in Soil Science and Plant Analysis, 2014
Dry bean is an important legume crop for a large portion of the world's population. Nitrogen (N) is one of the most yield-limiting nutrients in all dry bean–producing regions of the world. A greenhouse experiment was conducted to evaluate responses of 15 dry bean genotypes to N fertilization with and without rhizobial inoculation grown on a lowland ...

YIELD OF DRY MATTER, IN VITRO-DIGESTIBLE DRY MATTER AND CRUDE PROTEIN OF FORAGES

Canadian Journal of Plant Science, 1967
Pure stands of alfalfa, bromegrass, orchardgrass and timothy, each represented by two varieties differing in maturity and/or plant type, were harvested weekly during their first crop growth in 1961, 1962, and 1963.All forages consistently increased in dry matter yield until approximately the early-seed stage. Differences in rate of growth, development

Dry Matter Production and Partition in Relation to Yield of Tea

Experimental Agriculture, 1981
SUMMARYTea yields of 1 to 4 t ha−1y−1 of dry shoot tips are much less than those of other vegetative crops like grasslands or forests growing in similar conditions, partly because plucking restricts tea biomass production, but mainly because the harvest index of tea is small.

Contribution of Remobilized Total Dry Matter to Soybean Yield

Journal of Crop Improvement, 2012
It is recognized that soybean remobilizes carbohydrates and protein compounds from vegetative to reproductive organs during the last half of the seed filling period. However, reports quantifying how much of final yield is constituted by these remobilized materials under field conditions are lacking.

Contribution of Rice Tillers to Dry Matter Accumulation and Yield

Agronomy Journal, 1998
AbstractA rice (Oryza sativa L.) crop functions as a population of tillers produced at different times and possessing specific growth characteristics. The objective of this study was to characterize the contribution of cultivar tillering ability to dry matter accumulation, yield components, and grain yield.
