Optimising sowing date of durum wheat in a variable Mediterranean environment

Field Crops Research, 2009
Abstract Sowing date and cultivar choice influence yield of wheat in Mediterranean climatic regions where crop production is constrained by waterlogging in winter on clay soils and terminal water deficit in spring. Because of the large seasonal variability in Mediterranean environments, a combination of experimental data and simulation results were ...

Sowing Date and Kernel Weight in Maize

Crop Science, 1996
Sowing date in temperate regions determines the environmental conditions to which the maize (Zea mays L.) crop is exposed during grain filling. The objective of this work was to study the effect of sowing date on individual kernel weight of irrigated, well‐fertilized maize crops.

Sowing date and phosphorus utilization by wheat

Plant and Soil, 1993
The uptake and utilization of phosphorus (P) by cereal crops is influenced by the growing period of the crop. In this article the effect of sowing date on the utilization of P by wheat crops grown in southern NSW is reviewed. Crops sown early in the accepted sowing period require smaller inputs of P fertilizer to reach the maximum yield but produce ...

Sowing Dates of Wheat in Northern Sudan

Experimental Agriculture, 1977
SUMMARYThe effect of sowing time and variety were tested for three consecutive years under irrigated conditions. The relation between yield and planting time was quadratic, best described by y=a+bx-ex2 where y is grain yield and x is planting time.

Effects of sowing date, nitrogen application, and sowing rate on oat quality

Australian Journal of Agricultural Research, 1998
Processors of oats for human food use in Australia may have to use grain grown under widely different agronomic conditions. To assess the effect of agronomic conditions on the quality of oats, field trials were conducted in New South Wales, Australia, in 1995 with Bimbil, Carbeen, Coolabah, and Euro (feed varieties); Cooba, Mortlock, and Echidna (food ...

Studies on the sowing dates of cotton in the Sudan Gezira: I. The influence of date of sowing on plant growth and development

The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1967
Growth analysis of cotton crops sown in the Sudan Gezira at monthly intervals between August and May revealed a marked seasonal pattern of growth. Irrespective of plant age and fruiting state growth of non-senescent plants was slowest during the cool winter months.

Studies on the sowing date of cotton in the Sudan Gezira: II. The relationship between sowing date of cotton and the incidence of insect pests

The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1967
In factorial experiments covering a range of sowing dates and insecticide treatments the numbers of fleabeetle, jassid and whitefly on cotton in the Sudan Gezira were shown to be strongly influenced by the date of sowing and the age of the crop.Attack by fleabeetle was most severe on cotton seedlings from July and early August sowings.

Effect of Sowing Date on Groundnuts in Sudan Gezira

Experimental Agriculture, 1978
SUMMARYA 4-year investigation of the effects of sowing date on three types of groundnut showed that the earlier the sowing date, the later was kernel initiation and kernel maturity. Early sowing resulted in a high pod yield, oil content and iodine number, but reduced the shelling percentage. The leaf area index ranged from 3·0 to 5·0, the highest value

Sowing dates of sweet sorghum for bioethanol

2019
In this work it was evaluated the effect of sowing date on the production characteristics and sugars composition of sweet sorghum. Based on these parameters the potential for bioethanol production from this crop was estimated. The study was conducted over two years (2005 and 2006), with the variety Madhura. The sowing was carried out on four dates: May

Effects of Date of Sowing on Photosensitive Nigerian Sorghums

Experimental Agriculture, 1973
SUMMARYTall Nigerian Farafara and a dwarf line selected from the cross Combine Kafir 60 × Farafara were compared at Samaru in eight weekly sowings in 1969, which was a wet year, and 1970 which was rather dry. Whereas the dwarf line always gave more grain yield, its advantage over Farafara, and the effect of early sowing on its yield, were greater in ...
