Abstract The research was carried out in one of the greenhouses of the Horticulture and Landscape Division nursery in the Plant Production Department - Directorate of Agriculture – Najaf Governorate for the agricultural season 2018-2019. Experiment aimed to study the effect of foliar application of organic matter and salicylic acid on the growth and yield of the Strawberry.. The study included nine treatments, which are three concentrations of organic matter of (HumiferT-ULTRA) was used (0, 3, and 6) ml.L-1, and Salicylic Acid treatment with three concentrations (0, 100, and 200) mg.L-1. Furthermore, it was implemented as a factorial experiment according to the Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replicates. The results showed that the treatment of 3 ml.L-1 of organic matter was significantly achieved the heist values in plant height, percentage of carbohydrates, and anthocyanin pigment in the fruit, while the other traits were superior significantly at the level of 6 ml.L-1. On the other hand, the foliar application of with salicylic acid resulted in significant superiority in all the studied traits, especially at the concentration of 200 mg.L-1 except the leaf content of chlorophyll and the plant yield, which recorded a significant superiority at the concentration of 100 mg.L-1. Finally, the interaction of the study factors had a significant effect on all the studied traits.

<p><em>The low level of micro nutrients will cause a deficiency in plants, but even the slightest excess will be toxic.</em><em> </em><em>This research aimed to know the possible physiology effect of foliar application of boron, silica and their interaction on growth and yield of rice in high boron content media. The research was conducted in the Integrated Green house Field Laboratory, College of Agriculture, University of Lampung from October 2014 to March 2015. The treatments were arranged in a 3</em><em> </em><em>x</em><em> </em><em>5 factorial by applying in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with two replications. The first factor was boron applied with concentrations of 0, 10 and 20 ppm, respectively. The second factor was silica applied with concentrations of 0, 50, 100, 150 and 200 ppm, respectively. The homogeneity of variance was tested using Bartlett’s test and the non-additivity of model using Tukey’s test. The differences of treatment mean were analyzed using orthogonal contrast and polynomial at 5% and 1% probability level. The results showed that the foliar application of boron, silica and their interaction did not affect growth and yield of rice in high boron content media.</em><em> </em><em>The high formation of wax in the cuticle layer supported by high levels of boron may cause boron and silica which was applied through the leaves difficult to be absorbed by plants.</em><em> </em></p>

Objective of this study was to examine and evaluate the role of different rates of salicylic acid (SA) as foliar spray on growth and yield performance of BRRI dhan29. The experiment was conducted at Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Bangladesh from November, 2016 to May, 2017 following a randomized complete block design with five rates of SA in six replications. The results showed that the lower rate of SA (upto 0.75 mM) has a positive effect on rice biomass production including effective tiller per hill, filled grain per panicle, grain yield and straw yield. The highest dry matter production at both maximum tillering and panicle initiation stages was found at SA spray rate of 0.5 mM. The highest number of effective tillers per hill (14.7) as well as the highest filled grain (120.4) and grain yield (8.1 t/ha) were found at SA rate of 0.75 mM. However, the maximum biomass production was obtained at SA rate of 0.25 mM. The minimum grain yield (7.0 t/ha) was observed in the control treatment.

An experiment was conducted in the field laboratory of the Department of Crop Botany, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh, to investigate the effect of foliar application of Miyodo on morphology, yield contributing characters and yield of T. aman rice cv. BR-11. The concentrations of Miyodo used were 2 mgL-1, 3 mgL-1, 4 mgL-1 and 5mgL-1 with a control. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Application of Miyodo by spraying at 45 days after transplanting significantly enhanced plant height, number of tillers and effective tillers, number of leaves and leaf area, size of flag leaf, total dry matter, panicle length, number of total grains and filled grains, 1000-grain weight, grain yield, straw yield, and harvest index. The result showed that the application of 5 mgL-1 Miyodo produced the highest grain yield of BR-11 compared to other concentrations as well as control. However, further study is needed to determine the higher concentration limit of Miyodo in maximizing the growth and yield of T. aman rice cv. BR-11.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/pa.v19i1.17106 Progress. Agric. 19(1): 45 - 49, 2008

Bedded sweetpotatoes are often covered with a rowcover to enhance sprouting. Our study was conducted to evaluate several rowcovers for earliness, plant yield, and plant quality (weight). In 1993 and 1994, variety (`Beauregard' and `Jewel') and rowcovers (clear plastic; black plastic; photodegradable plastic; infrared transmissible plastic; Reemay polyester cover; and black plastic, which was then covered with a black plastic tunnel) were evaluated for their effects on plant production. Holes ≈1 cm in diameter were punched in the plastic ≈2 weeks after planting to prevent exposing the seed roots to excessively high temperatures. Rowcovers were removed when plants began emerging from the soil, except for Reemay and the black plastic tunnels, which remained in place over the bedded plants until first plant harvest. Black plastic tunnels were placed back over the treatment bed each time plants were harvested. When 50% of the plants were 25 cm tall, all plants from the plot were cut 1 to 2 cm above the soil line. Plots were arranged in a randomized complete-block design and replicated five times. `Jewel' produced plants earlier than `Beauregard'. Covering beds with black plastic mulch and tunnels resulted in the first plant cutting being up to 42 days earlier than the other treatments, with no rowcover treatments producing plants the latest. The second earliest cutting was obtained when beds were covered with Reemay rowcover. Plant fresh weight was greater with the no cover treatments; black plastic tunnel treatments produced the lowest weight plants. Using black plastic tunnels consistently produced more plants than the other treatments. In the future, using rowcovers to enhance slower sprouting varieties should be examined.
