Human zinc (Zn) deficiency is a worldwide problem, especially in developing countries due to the prevalence of cereals in the diet. Among different alleviation strategies, genetic Zn biofortification is considered a sustainable approach. However, it may depend on Zn availability from soils. We grew Zincol-16 (genetically-Zn-biofortified wheat) and Faisalabad-08 (widely grown standard wheat) in pots with (8 mg kg−1) or without Zn application. The cultivars were grown in a low-Zn calcareous soil. The grain yield of both cultivars was significantly (P≤0.05) increased with that without Zn application. As compared to Faisalabad-08, Zincol-16 had 23 and 41% more grain Zn concentration respectively at control and applied rate of Zn. Faisalabad-08 accumulated about 18% more grain Zn concentration with Zn than Zincol-16 without Zn application. A near target level of grain Zn concentration (36 mg kg−1) was achieved in Zincol-16 only with Zn fertilisation. Over all, the findings clearly signify the importance of agronomic Zn biofortification of genetically Zn-biofortified wheat grown on a low-Zn calcareous soil.
人体锌缺乏症是一个世界性的问题，特别是在发展中国家，由于谷物在饮食中的普遍存在。在不同的缓解策略中，基因锌生物强化被认为是一种可持续的方法。然而，这可能取决于土壤锌的有效性。我们在(8 mg kg -1)或未施用锌的盆栽中种植zincoll -16(基因锌生物强化小麦)和Faisalabad-08(广泛种植的标准小麦)。栽培于低锌钙质土壤中。两个品种的籽粒产量在不施锌的情况下均显著(P≤0.05)提高。与Faisalabad-08相比，zincoll -16在对照和施锌量下的籽粒锌含量分别提高了23%和41%。加锌处理后，Faisalabad-08籽粒Zn浓度比未加锌处理的zincoll -16籽粒Zn浓度高18%左右。锌处理下，zincoll -16的籽粒锌浓度接近目标水平(36 mg kg -1)。总之，这些发现清楚地表明了在低锌钙质土壤上种植转基因锌生物强化小麦的农艺锌生物强化的重要性。

The evaluation of “Effect of Neem extract and Calcium Hydroxide (CaOH) on paddy during storage” was carried out seed processing plant, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Allahabad. Different concentration of Neem and CaOH was taken for evaluation. Neem lime balls were prepared. These balls were made by mixture of CaOH and Neem leaf extract. Weight of each ball was 6 g. 12 kg of paddy were issued by Seed Research Farm SHUATS. Twelve different types of samples were prepared of 1 kg paddy in each gunny bag. The evaluation of moisture content was measured at interval of 5 days total evaluation period was 10 days. The result showed that the changes in moisture content, weight and seed viability percentage. The moisture content low decreases in controlled sample comparison to treated sample. The seed viability percentage was remaining constant for all 10 days in treated sample and some decrease in controlled sample. Hence the Neem and Calcium Hydroxide are very effective for post harvest management of paddy.

A Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was comprised 2x3 factorial arrangements of two breeds (DYL and local breed) and three different lysine levels. The 18 weeks old, nine castrated DYL and nine local breed were randomly allocated in each individual pen to six treatment groups with three replicates into 18 pens. Two breeds of pigs (DYL and local breed) were exposed to the three different dietary treatments, L1- basal diet without lysine supplementation, L2- basal diet with 0.95% total lysine for finisher and L3- basal diet with 1.45% total lysine for finisher. The growth performance and back fat thickness were determined for finishing pigs. Significantly better body weight, weight gain, feed conversion ratio (FCR) and lower back fat were observed in pigs fed L2 but did not significantly differ from those fed L3. Otherwise, diets without lysine supplementation (L1) showed no better effect on the growth performances of both DYL and local breeds. It could be noted that L2 was the best level to obtain optimal growth performances and feed efficiency. Between the two breeds, growth performances of DYL were superior over that of local breed. Back fat thicknesses of DYL were also thinner than that of local breed. The interactions were observed between lysine levels and different breeds regard for final body weight, cumulative gain and feed conversion ratio. It was noticeable that lysine supplementation helped to improve growth performance and reduce back fat thickness of both local breed and DYL crossed breed. The result also showed that a comparison of the two different breed revealed the improved performances in DYL crossed breed rather than that of local breed.

This study was carried out to ascertain the effects of organic manure (farmyard manure, poultry manure, and vermicompost) and chemical fertilizers NPK (nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium) on the growth and yield of onion. The research was consisting ten treatments with three replications. Different levels of nitrogen (0, 100, and 150 kg ha-1), phosphorus (0, 75, and 100 kg ha-1), potassium (0, 80, and 100 kg ha-1) fertilizers, and various rates of organic manures (20 ton ha-1 of farmyard manure, 20 t ha-1 of poultry manure and 15 t ha-1 of vermicompost) were applied to the soil at different combinations. The results of this study have shown that both inorganic fertilizers and organic manures significantly influenced all growth and yield parameters. Whereas, maximum plant height (50.50 cm) and bulb yield (30.75 t ha-1) were obtained at the combination of 20 t ha-1 farmyard manure + 150 kg ha-1 N + 100 kg ha-1 P2O5 + 100 kg ha-1 K2O. However, the minimum bulb yield (15.80 t ha-1) was observed with control where no fertilizer was applied. Therefore, application of 20 t ha-1 farmyard manure during field preparation followed by application of 150 kg ha-1 N + 100 kg ha-1 P2O5 + 100 kg ha-1 K2O can be recommended for optimal growth and maximum bulb yield of onion.
本试验旨在研究有机肥(农家肥、禽肥和蚯蚓堆肥)和化肥(氮、磷、钾)对洋葱生长和产量的影响。这项研究包括10个治疗，3个重复。不同水平的氮肥(0、100和150 kg hm -1)、磷肥(0、75和100 kg hm -1)、钾肥(0、80和100 kg hm -1)和不同比例的有机肥料(20吨hm -1农家肥、20吨hm -1禽粪和15吨hm -1蚯蚓堆肥)以不同组合施用于土壤。研究结果表明，有机肥和无机肥对水稻生长和产量参数均有显著影响。而在20 t hm -1农家肥+ 150 kg hm -1 N + 100 kg hm -1 P2O5 + 100 kg hm -1 K2O的组合下，植株最高可达50.50 cm，球茎产量最高达30.75 t hm -1。然而，在不施肥的对照中，鳞茎产量最低(15.80吨每公顷)。因此，在大田准备时施用20 t ha-1农家肥，然后施用150 kg ha-1 N + 100 kg ha-1 P2O5 + 100 kg ha-1 K2O可达到洋葱的最佳生长和最高鳞茎产量。

The new olive cultivar ‘Chemlali Mhassen’ was derived from the autopollination of the Tunisian oil cultivar ‘Chemlali Sfax’. The main morphological differences between the two cultivars were observed on the endocarp (symmetry, position of maximum diameter, apex, base and surface). On the agronomic plan, this cultivar is distinguishable from the original cultivar due to its medium earliness of bearing (4 years), medium alternate bearing (0.44), early ripening, moderate sensitivity to verticillium and its high olive production per tree (7.7 kg). Concerning oil quality, ‘Chemlali Mhassen’ had higher performances than the original cultivar for oleic acid content (70 to 77 %) and lower contents for palmitic acid (9.2 to 11.5 %) and linoleic acid (9.3 to 14.7 %). Similar performances were recorded between the new and the original cultivars for rhizogenesis behavior and pollen compatibility.
