Abstract Kencur (Kaempferia galanga L.) is one of the plants that mainly can be used as the main ingredient in medicine, food, drinks, and spices with benefits. Environmental conditions are a supporting factor for cultivating kencur. Nutrient needs are important factors for plant cultivation. A good environment is an environment that fulfills macro and micronutrients. It is also an important thing in kencur cultivating plants. We should know in which condition the plant can show the best result so the kencur plant is tested under shade. One of the macro nutrients needed by plants are sulfur (S) and magnesium (Mg). The purpose of this research is to determine if there is an interaction between accessions and Sulfur (MgSO4) at two different shades levels. The design used in this study was a Split Plot Design with the main plot: kencur plant with Blitar and Banyuwangi accessions, sub plots: MgSO4 fertilizer with dose of 0, 60, 90 and 120 kg ha-1, land under shade. The shrinkage of the rhizomes that occurred with a dose of sulfur fertilizer ranged from 13% to 19% and without a dose of sulfur fertilizer decreased 34% with results showing that the treatment with a dose of 90 kg ha-1 of sulfur fertilizer resulted in lower shrinkage.

A Field trial was conducted at the aerobic rice experimental field of the NationalCereals Research Institute (NCRI), Badeggi, Nigeria (9 ° 04 N and 6° 7 E)in 2007 and 2008 wet seasons to determine the weed competitiveness andperformance of inter Ã¢â‚¬Â and intra‐specific aerobic rice (Oryza sativa L.) varietiesunder seven weeding regimes. The trial was laid out in a split plot designwith the two varieties of rice (NERICA 1 as inter Ã¢â‚¬Âspecific and FARO 46 asintra Ã¢â‚¬Âspecific) assigned to the main plot while seven weeding regimes (hoeweeding at 25, 45, and 65 days after sowing (DAS), 25 DAS, 45 DAS, 25 and45 DAS, application of 3’,3’ Ã¢â‚¬Â dichloropropionanilide /2, 4 – Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (orizo plus R) by Candel Company Ltd. at 3.5 kg active ingredient(ai )ha Ã¢â‚¬Â1 at 25 DAS, hoe weeding at 25 DAS followed by orizo plus at 3.5 kg aiat 45 DAS and weedy check) constituted the sub – plots. The treatmentswere replicated three times in a split plot design. From the results, interspecificvariety (NERICA1) had better weed suppression ability with highergrain yield of 3.1 t ha Ã¢â‚¬Â1 than the intra‐specific variety (FARO 46). Weed controlwas better when hoe weeding was done at 25, 45 and 65 DAS or 25 and45 DAS and at 25 DAS followed by orizo plus at 45 DAS than in other treatments.However, hoe weeding at 25, 45 and 65 DAS gave significantlygreater grain yield than other treatments. Although economic yield was obtainedfrom hoe weeding at 25 DAS followed by orizo plus at 45 DAS.

ABSTRACT This study was conducted in order to verify if the phenological stage and the nitrogen fertilization interfere in the allelopathic activity and in the concentration of potentially allelopathic phenolic compounds of tough lovegrass (Eragrostis plana). The assay consisted of a bifactor 3 (0.100 and 200 kg N ha-1) x 2 (harvested in vegetative and reproductive stages), in a split plot design. The N doses constituted the main plot and the phenological stage during the harvest the subplots, resulting in six treatments. The tough lovegrass plants derived from each of the treatments were subjected to allelopathy bioassays, in which aqueous extracts of the aerial parts were applied to lettuce cypselae (Lactuca sativa) and to phytochemicals tests when ethanolic extracts were used, with subsequent partition with ethyl acetate, followed by a high-performance liquid chromatography analysis. There was nitrogen x phenological stage interaction on biological and chemical attributes. The allelopathic extracts were, in descending order of inhibition of germination, those from plants harvested at the vegetative stage and fertilized with 100 kg N and at the flowering stage with 200 kg N, which showed the highest catechin concentrations. The caffeic, ferulic, p-coumaric and vanillic acids were in a higher concentration in flowered and fertilized plants with 0 or 200 kg N. The management of the nitrogen fertilization and the harvesting age influence the allelopathic activity and the phytochemical composition of tough lovegrass.

Effects of row spacing, blended fertilizer rates, and varieties on some agronomic traits of chickpea were evaluated with the objective of investigating response of Kabuli and Desi type chick pea varieties to blended fertilizers rates and interrow spacing. The study was done using split plot design interrow spacing as a main plot, and fertilizer and variety as a subplot, where three row spacings (20 cm, 30 cm, and 40 cm) were assigned to the main plot while the factorial combination of four blended (NPSB) fertilizer rates (0 kg/ha, 50 kg/ha, 100 kg/ha, and 150 kg/ha) and representative of Kabuli and Desi type chickpea varieties such as Arerti and Mariye, respectively, were assigned to the subplot. Main effect of interrow spacing did not show significant difference on many studied agronomic parameters. Similarly, main effect of blended fertilizer rates and varieties did not reveal a significant difference for the studied parameters. However, significant differences were obtained on phenology, yield components, and yield for the varieties. Blended fertilizer rates utilized in Tselemti District did not show differences in most of studied traits. Reasonable row spacing of 20 cm for both types of chickpea could be used for the studied area.

Long bean production in Indonesia continues to decline every year, this is due to land conversion and the lack of application of agricultural technology. One of the efforts to increase long bean production is by multiplying quality seeds using organic materials as nutrients needed by plants. This study aims to determine the response of the growth and production of long bean seeds to the interaction of strains, varieties with a concentration of liquid organic fertilizer. The research was conducted at the Vegetable Crops Research Institute, Lembang, West Bandung Regency from July 2020 to January 2021. The research method used was an experimental method with a Randomized Block Design (RBD) with a split-plot design consisting of 2 factors: the first factor (main plot) (A) was the variety and strain with 2 levels, a1 (Tavi canton variety) and a2 (pras-1 strain).The second factor (subplot) (B) is concentration of biopras-1 with 5 levels, b1 (0 cc/l-1 water), b2 (1 cc/l-1 water), b3 (2 cc/l-1 water), b4 (3 cc/l-1 water) and b5 (4 cc/l-1 water). The effect of the treatment was analyzed by means of variance and if the f test at 5% level was significantly different, then to find out the best treatment was continued with the DMRT (Duncan Multiple Range Test) at the 5% level. The results showed that there was an interaction between varieties, lines with various concentrations of biopras-1 liquid organic fertilizer on dry seed weight per plant, dry seed weight per plot, and 1000 seeds weight. Treatment of pras-1 lines with the concentration of liquid organic fertilizer biopras-1 4 cc / l of water was able to give the best results on dry seed weight per plant (35.31 gr), dry seed weight per plot (1.298.20 gr or 2.16 Ton/ha-1) and the weight of 1000 seeds (153.10 gr).

A field experiment was conducted in the Experimental Research Farm of School of Agricultural Sciences and Rural Development (SASRD), Nagaland University during the kharif season 2018. Groundnut variety ICGS-76 was sown @ 70 kg ha-1 for 60×20 cm2 spacing. The experiment was laid in split plot design with three replications. The main plot treatments consisted of two lime levels: lime @ 0 t ha-1 and lime @ 3 t ha-1 while the sub- plot treatments consisted of five sulphur levels: sulphur @ (0 kg ha-1, 10 kg ha-1, 20 kg ha-1, 30 kg ha-1 and 40 kg ha-1 along with recommended dose of fertilizer at 20:60:40 kg N, P2O5 and K2O ha-1 respectively in the form of diammonium phosphate and murate of potash. The results showed that application of lime @ 3 t ha-1 gave higher growth and yield attributes compared to no lime and also application of sulphur @ 40 kg ha-1 gave higher growth and yield attributes compared to lower doses of sulphur though there was only slight increase in the attributes between each successive doses of sulphur. Overall application of lime and sulphur increased all the yield attributes of groundnut, where the highest number of pods plant-1, seeds pod-1, 100 kernels weight, pod yield, kernel yield and stover yield were recorded when treatment was done with lime @ 3 t ha1 and sulphur @ 40 kg ha-1.
