Eleven samples collected Ben Tre province during dry wet seasons were then analyzed for sixteen parameters, including pH, total dissolved solids (TDS), salinity, hardness (TH), ammonium (NH₄⁺-N), nitrite (NO₂ˉ-N), nitrate (NO₃ˉ-N), sulfate (SO₄²ˉ), chloride (Clˉ), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), arsenic (As), coliforms, Escherichia coli (E. coli). Pearson correlation analysis, principal component analysis (PCA), cluster (CA) employed. results indicated that solids, hardness, Clˉ, E. coliform detected as contaminants samples. trend parameters mostly higher season. Which Mn significantly fluctuated between seasons. Activities industrial-craft areas, landfills seawater-intruded areas negatively impacted typically TDS E.coliat landfill area. Six components obtained from PCA could explain 93.6% variance, all are responsible variations quality. Geology, discharged wastewater, leachate, agricultural activities, saltwater intrusion can be considered representative factors. CA grouped into four clusters based similarity water properties. showed locations each have outstanding quality characteristics, I III high II has IV sets with salinity.

Optimal nitrogen management to achieve high wheat grain yield, grain protein content, and water productivity: A meta-analysis

Agricultural Water Management, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 290, P. 108587 - 108587

Published: Nov. 14, 2023

Nitrogen (N) addition is commonly employed to enhance wheat production, and the effectiveness strongly influenced by site-specific factors encompassing environmental conditions crop management practices. However, current understanding fails adequately account for intricate variable interactions among these factors. Consequently, we conducted a global meta-analysis quantify combined contributions of yield, grain protein content (GPC), water productivity (WP) provide recommendations optimizing N management. The results revealed significant improvement in yield (14.85%), GPC (6.62%), WP (10.79%) following application N. Moreover, higher rates, utilization coated fertilizer, post-anthesis fertilization, multiple applications exhibited enhanced outcomes terms GPC, systems. It was observed that applying 100–200 kg/ha optimal rate maximizing WP. Medium soil texture humid climate showed more pronounced increase response addition. Additionally, demonstrated stronger benefits when annual temperature below 14 °C, while with temperatures exceeding °C. Furthermore, adopting common fertilization practices alongside irrigation implementing pre-anthesis medium also contributed achieving performance. finding this study serves as guideline support on-site practice offer reference policy design across specific site conditions.

Effect of nitrogen fertilisation on yield and protein content of durum wheat ( Triticum durum Desf ) cultivated in the Constantine region of Algeria

International Journal of Environmental Studies, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown, P. 1 - 13

Published: Jan. 2, 2025

The study aims to assess the impact of nitrogen fertilisation on yield and agronomic characteristics durum wheat (Triticum Desf) in Constantine's semi-arid region during 2021/2022 season. Conducted at Centre for Biotechnology Research, experiment used a randomised design with three levels: T0 (starting dose), T1 (64 units N ha–1), T2 (110 ha–1). Measurements included grain yield, thousand weight, vitreousness rate, moisture content, specific protein content. achieved highest (31.29 q ha–1) content (15.3%). had weight (53.32 g) optimal (9.54%) (80.7 kg hl–1).

Optimizing Nitrogen for Sustainable Yield and Efficiency: Insights from Shouguang Facility-Grown Tomatoes

Agronomy, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 15(2), P. 420 - 420

Published: Feb. 7, 2025

Facility-based agriculture has rapidly advanced due to its capacity for high-intensity and year-round crop cultivation. This study evaluated the effects of different nitrogen fertilizer application rates on growth greenhouse tomatoes, while utilizing 15N tracing technology explore utilization efficiency during process facility-grown tomatoes. The results indicate that within range N60–N80 (93–128 kg N ha−1) can optimally balance yield, nitrogen-use efficiency, growth. Application exceeding this do not enhance yield lead reduced efficiency. Tomato plants exhibited a low requirement seedling stage, relying primarily native soil stocks flowering stage. Fertilizer-derived use increased fruiting These findings demonstrate excessive inputs diminishing returns potential nutrient imbalances, fully stages is essential. emphasizes importance adjusting input according developmental optimize resource utilization.
