In order to investigate the physiological responses of chickpea cultivars to supplemental irrigation and super-absorbent polymer use, an experiment was conducted in 2015 using a split factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design in the research farm of Khorramabad Agricultural Research Center. Factors were supplemental irrigation times (without supplemental irrigation, irrigation in 50 percent of flowering and irrigation in 50 percent of seed filling) as main factor and cultivars (Arman, Azad and Greet) and super absorbent polymer (zero, 100 and 200 kg/ha) in the sub plots. The result showed that the supplemental irrigation and super absorbent polymer reduced soluble carbohydrates and seed protein and increased insoluble carbohydrates, chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and total chlorophyll. Supplemental irrigation in 50 percent of flowering satge increased 74 percent of seed yield compared to dry land condition. The highest seed yield, biological yield and harvest index were obtained from Greet cultivar with supplemental irrigation at 50 percent of flowering stage and application of 200 kg/ha super absorbent polymer, with the averages 2179 kg/ha, 4012 kg/ha and 54.3 percent, respectively. The results showed that at all levels of supplemental irrigation, the use of superabsorbent polymer improves plant growth conditions and, consequently, significantly increased seed yield. This will increase further by increasing the consumption of super absorbent polymer within supplementary irrigation.

In order to study the effect of the usage of vermicompost and mycorrhiza fertilizer usage on yield quantity and quality of soybean cultivar L17 in water deficit stress condition, an experiment was conducted as plots in a split at randomized complete blocks with four replications in Agricultural Research Center in 2013 in Khoramabad. The experiment treatments including irrigation in three levels (after 60, 120 and 180 mm evaporation from pan class A pan), vermicompost and mycorrhiza in six levels (non-use of vermicompost and mycorhiza fertilizer, inoculated with mycorrhiza fertilizer, consumption of 5 and 10 t.ha-1 vermicompost , consumption of 5 and 10 t.ha-1 vermicompost with mycorrhiza) were respectively as the main plots and sub. The results of experiment showed that the water deficit stress significantly decreased the number of pods per plant, number of grain per pod, number of grain per plant, 1000 grain weight, biological and grain yield. So that the highest grain yield with the rate of 3216.7 kg.ha-1 was obtained from 60 mm evaporation. The use of combined vermicompost and mycorrhiza fertilizer increased the traits except the number of grain per pods. Grain yield in combined treatment of 5 and 10 t.ha-1 vermicompost and mycorrhiza, respectively increased 23 and 29 percent compared to control. By increasing irrigation distance grain oil content decreased and grain protein content increased. Finally, in order to water_saving irrigation and the cost of inputs and ensuring optimal performance in drought condition, we can use combination of 5 t.ha-1 vermicompost with mycorrhiza.

To evaluate the effect of Zn sulfate foliar application on morphologic and quantitative characteristics of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) cultivars, a field experiment carried out in Ramin Agriculture and Natural Resources University of Khouzestan, Iran, in a Factorial arrangement in a randomized complete block design with four replications, during 2012-2013. Treatments consisted of two spring safflower cultivars (Soffeh and Local of Esfahan) and time of foliar application of zinc sulfate (no spraying, spraying at the stem elongation, branching, flowering and grain filling), were considered. The results indicated that foliar application of zinc sulfate were significant effect on morphologic characteristics, number of head per plant and per square meter, 1000 grain weight, grain yield, biological yield and oil yield. Effect of cultivar on first branch height, number of secondry branch, head diameter, number of head per plant and per squar meter and number of grain per head was significant. Interaction of cultivar and foliar application has significant effect on grain oil contents. The spraying in the stem elongation and branching stage indicated maximum effect on morphologic characteristics. The maximum grain yield and yield components and oil yield were obtained in spraying in the branching stage. The spraying in the stem elongation stage increased biological yield. The highest amount of grain oil content was obtained in cultivar of Soffeh with spraying in the stem elongation stage. The experiment result indicated that local cultivar of Esfahan and spraying in the branching stage, had best morphological traits and yield of safflower in the climatic conditions of the experimental area.

To investigate wheat and wild mustard growth and competition to N levels, an experiment was conducted in Ramin Agriculture and Natural Resources University of Khouzestan, located at 36 km North of Ahvaz. Treatments included planting wheat solely, wild mustard solely, and intercropping wheat and wild mustard in pots. These combinations were exposed to N levels including 0, 60, 120 and 180 kg.ha-1. The results showed that grain yield, dry matter and spike number of wheat increased by increased N levels in sole crop treatment. These traits decreased by N levels when competing against wild mustard. Wheat grain and total protein content increased up to 120 kg N.ha-1 by increased N levels, but decreased while competing against wild mustard. The highest N apparent recovery by wheat was obtained from sole cropping of this crop and 120 kg N.ha-1. The lowest rate of this parameter was observed in competition condition against wild mustard and the level of 180 kg N.ha-1. The results showed that wild mustard traits had positive response to increased N levels, regardless to competition against wheat.

Filter mud is a residual of sugar extraction process produced in huge volume and has high organic matter and essential elements. Regarding to these properties, it seems this material could be a useful fertilizer in crop production. To evaluate effect of sugarcane filter muds and chemical and biological fertilizers application on canola (Brassica napus L.) yield and some of soil properties, a factorial experiment was conducted in 2012 in experimental farm of Ramin (Mollasani) Agriculture and Natural Resources University of Khouzestan. A complete block design was used for the experiment in three replications. Different integrated treatments of filter muds and chemical fertilizers including A1: 100 percent filter muds, A2: 75 percent filter muds and 25 percent chemical fertilizers, A3: 50 percent filter muds and 50 precent chemical fertilizers, A4: 25 percent filter muds and 75 percent chemical fertilizers and A5: 100 percent chemical fertilizers were investigated as an experimental factor. Other experimental factor was biological fertilizers application (with and without biological fertilizers). The biological fertilizers investigated in this study were included nitroxin and Barvar 2. Application of filter muds had significant effects on canola yield, yield components, grain oil and protein contents. The soil organic matter and salinity also were affected by filter muds significantly. Highest canola grain yield was obtained by integration of filter muds and chemical fertilizers. Increase of filter muds caused to increase of grain oil content and decrease of nitrogen and nitrate content. On the other hand, increase of chemical fertilizers increased nitrate and nitrogen contents and decreased oil content. In addition, increase of filter muds resulted in higher soil organic matter and salinity, simultaneously.
