Download or read book Irrigated Forage Production written by Amos Dovrat and published by Elsevier Science & Technology. This book was released on 1993 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume discusses the possible improvement of forage production for livestock in areas with limited irrigation water and, sometimes, land. It is written in two parts; the first provides some basic elements of forest yield formation; the second gives details of five crops plus pastures selected because of their wide distribution or recommendations for use. The book mainly deals with crop agronomy, such as soil management, crop selection, input scheduling, and forage quality; as well as examining the physical processes, such as climate factors, crop-water functions, low water quality, and irrigation methods.Serving as a useful reference book, this volume will be of great value to research workers, farmers, teachers, extension and advisory agents and senior students of agriculture and animal science.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forages: The Science of Grassland Agriculture, 7th Edition, Volume II will extensively evaluate the current knowledge and information on forage agriculture. Chapters written by leading researchers and authorities in grassland agriculture are aggregated under section themes, each one representing a major topic within grassland science and agriculture. This 7th edition will include two new additional chapters covering all aspects of forage physiology in three separate chapters, instead of one in previous editions. Chapters will be updated throughout to include new information that has developed since the last edition. This new edition of the classic reference serves as a comprehensive supplement to An Introduction to Grassland Agriculture, Volume I.

This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Green forage is the most important feed for livestock in Pakistan but with rapid urbanisation demands are increasing with reduced arable land. The first study of this book is about socio-economic structure of forage producing farmers. This study identified availability of irrigation water and high cost of fertilizers as major problems of the farmers. Second study of this book investigates the effect of cropping system, fertilizer and irrigation on total annual biomass yield of forage. This study found drought adoptive cropping system more productive and water use efficient with limited resources of fertilizer and irrigation. Third study evaluates the effect of fertilizer, irrigation and cropping system on crude protein (CP) and metabolizable energy (ME) and irrigation water use efficiency of CP and ME. This study also identified drought adoptive cropping system more productive and water use efficient with respect to CP and ME. From the whole study it can be concluded that the implementation of DACS in Pakistan’s agriculture may contribute to a more efficient and sustainable forage production and by this may enhance also the profitability of the farmers.

Download or read book Crop and Forage Production Using Saline Waters written by M. Kafi and published by Daya Books. This book was released on 2008 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Salinity becomes a problem in Semiarid and arid and arid regions of the world, posing major challange to provide food for the rapidly increasing population. Inappropriate agricultural practies have resulted in increasing saline waters and saline lands, which are worthless for conventional agriculture. Excess salts accumulate in the root zone, prevents water absorption from surrounding soil and lowering the amount of water available to the plant. The most likely effect of salinity on plants is stunted growth, and physical damage or mortality may be caused at higher salt concentration. Researches conducted in last few decades reveal hundreds of salt tolerant plants in the world most of which could be utilized as cash crops using novel ideas and technologies. However, there is still a need to develop technology of saline agriculture suited to the different ecosystems of the world and major efforts are required to domesticate them using modern technology. This publication, through its 27 chapters exposes the difficulty of squeezing agricultural output, faced by mostly dry and saline parts of the world due to scarcity of clean water and fertile land for crop production. The volume also provides a facinating view on the safeguards and remedies to overcome this problem by means of modern techniques and natural resistant phenomenon of the flora in itself. The volume is chiefly based on the discussions and presentation during the International workshop on Crop and Forage Production using Saline Waters in Dry Areas held in Birjand, Iran during 7-10 May, 2006. The information presented herein would hopefully serve as a valuable reference material for the professionals and those who are actively involved in agriculture, research and management of crop production in dry and saline areas.
