This research was carried out in the form of split-split plotin the form of a randomized complete block design with three replications in the year 2021 in the Aburihan campus research farm located in Pakdasht. In this study, irrigation cycle in three levels (once every 7 days, once every 10 days and once every 13 days) as the main factor, planting date in two levels (5 June and 22 June) as secondary factor and fertilizing with bio fertilizers In four level including control (without biofertilizer), Shift biofertilizer, Chris biofertilizer and the combination of Shift and Chris biofertilizers as sub-factors were considered. The results of the research showed that the plants cultivated on June 22 were superior to the plants cultivated on June 5 in all investigated traits (including yield components, seed yield, and biological yield) and in all three tested irrigation levels. The seed yield, under different research treatments, has shown a consistent correlation with the number and weight of seeds. In other words, with increasing levels of drought stress, the seed yield has significantly decreased in both planting dates under investigation. However, the ratio of seed yield reduction under drought stress was significantly lower in plants cultivated on June 22st compared to those cultivated on June 5th.The application of biofertilizers, especially Chris biofertilizer, significantly reduced the effects of stress on grain yield, biological yield, and oil percentage in seed Niger

Objective: Environmental stress, especially drought stress, is one of the most important factors that reduce the growth and development of oil plants such as rapeseed in arid and semi-arid regions. The purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of biochar and biosulfur on seed yield and some ecophysiological traits of rapeseed under drought stress conditions in winter cultivation.Methods: This research was carried out in form of a factorial split-plot with randomized complete block design having three replications in 2019 in Karaj. In this experiment, irrigation treatment witnessed three levels of 30%, 60%, and 100% of crop capacity as main plots, while biochar treatment saw three levels of no application and application of three and six tons per hectare and biosulfur treatment, two levels of application and non-application as plots. Subsidiaries were considered.Results: It was found that drought stress had a significant effect on the seed and oil yield of rapeseed. Thus, the amount of these traits in drought stress showed a decrease of 50% and 52%, respectively, compared to the control. Also, the use of six tons per hectare of biochar had increased by 49% and 36% in terms of its number of pods per plant and the number of seeds per pod. Also, the interaction effect of biosulfur application and the use of six tons of biochar had the greatest effect on the traits of the number of pods per plant and harvest index.Conclusion: The results showed that the use of biofertilizers can be used as a suitable method to increase the yield of rapeseed. Increasing oil percentage and grain yield will ultimately increase the field and economic yield (oil) of the rapeseed plant.

To evaluate the effect of living mulches on weed control and yield of Black cumin (Nigella sativa L.) weeds by living mulch, a factorial split experiment has been conducted in the form of a randomized complete block design with four replications in the research farm of Aburaihan Campus, the University of Tehran in the 2017-2018 crop year. Factors of seedbed planting (stale seedbed and simple), type of living mulch (berseem clover (Trifolium alexandrinum L.), fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.), and alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), as well as planting time of living mulch (two weeks before and at the same time of black seed cultivation). The first factor is in the main plots and the combination of the second and third factors, in the subplots. Results show that fenugreek and alfalfa have been more successful in terms of weed control than clover with a 40% reduction in weed density and biomass, compared to the control without either live mulch or weeding. Also, in order to achieve the highest percentage of black cumin yield traits (83.02, 93.44, and 50.50), the number of capsules per plant, number of seeds per capsule, and 1000-seed weight are compared to the control. It is recommended to cultivate fenugreek at the same time as black cumin. In case of alfalfa, pre-sowing is also recommended. Stale seedbed planting system does not play a positive and significant role in weed control and increase in black seed yield traits. It is also better to grow fenugreek at the same time as black seed to get more seed yield in black cumin, but in case of alfalfa, it is better to plant earlier than black seed in the absence of any significant difference among planting times. It seems that alfalfa and fenugreek control weeds by accelerating canopy closure, increasing weed competition with black seed, not interfering negatively with black seed growth, and providing nitrogen to black seed have increased its yield.
