STUDY OF THE IMPACT OF CLIMATE ELEMENTS ON FOREST TREES IN NORTHERN IRAQ (DOHUK GOVERNORATE)

2024-10-13T05:56:00+00:00

Forests of various types are spread in the northern regions of Iraq. Iraq has witnessed rapid events over the past years, which led to their deterioration, and we have lost thousands of hectares, due to the mismanagement of the natural forests and the effects of climate change, including water scarcity, drought, and the frequent occurrence of sand and dust storms. Many studies and researches in the world have proven the possibility of using geospatial techniques to estimate cases of decline and change in vegetation covers based on what is known as the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI). This research reflects the process of collecting data using modern scientific techniques such as geographic information systems and remote sensing integrated with mathematical statistics and climate data. The study sites (Atrosh - Sarsink - Dohuk Dam) located in northern Iraq are among the agricultural and pastoral areas intertwined with forests. The study included the use of Landsat satellite images captured during different years for the study areas for the purpose of calculating (NDVI) values and adopting them as an indicator of the density of vegetation cover (forests) in the studied areas after excluding other vegetation covers through seasonality and temporal tracking of land uses, where the relationship between climate factors represented by temperatures, rainfall and the normalized vegetation difference index (NDVI) was studied by calculating linear regression relationships. The results generally proved that climate had a slight effect on the studied sites and that human activity is directly responsible for the state of the forests in terms of their decline or recovery

EFFECT OF SOWING NORMS AND DEADLINES ON THE PRESERVATION OF CAMELINA SEEDS UNTIL WINTER

2024-11-21T06:15:18+00:00

The article found that the death of sprouted grass by winter is caused by a low amount of humus in light-colored peat soils of the Kashkadarya region, a shortage of mineral substances that the plant can absorb, Cracking of the Earth due to high temperatures during this period

THE ROLE OF BIODIESEL IN SUPPORTING ENERGY SECURITY: GLOBAL OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES/ A REVIEW ARTICLE

2024-11-21T19:47:42+00:00

This study builds upon a range of prior research examining the influence of biofuels on reducing carbon emissions, enhancing energy security, and meeting the increasing demand for sustainable energy resources. Objective: The analysis incorporates environmental and economic data to compare the performance of biodiesel with conventional fossil fuels, focusing on emissions and the degree of dependence on local sources. Results: The findings indicate that biodiesel can lower greenhouse gas emissions by 50% to 70% compared to traditional fossil fuels and contribute to better energy security. However, challenges such as high production costs and competition with food crops persist. Conclusions: Biodiesel is anticipated to play a significant role in promoting environmental sustainability and reducing dependence on fossil fuels to achieve these goals more effectively, advancements in production technologies and policies that support cost reduction and increased efficiency are essential.

THE EFFECT OF APPLICATION OF MINERAL FERTILIZER RATE AT DIFFERENT DEPTH ON THE NUMBER OF PRODUCTIVE STEMS OF WINTER WHEAT

2024-12-01T08:25:41+00:00

It is well known that the wheat plant requires nutrients at different levels from seed germination to the ripening phase. If these nutrients are not available in the soil, nutrient deficiency begins to occur in the vegetative organs of the plants, especially in the stems, leaves and spikes. As a result of the occurrence of food shortage, the biometric indicators of the varieties change to different degrees. Taking these circumstances into account, we also conducted observation and analysis of variants in our research conducted in 2015-2018 in order to determine the effect of the factors applied to variants on the height, total and productive stems of winter wheat varieties.

EFFECT OF DIFFERENT TILLAGE SYSTEM ON SOME SOIL PHYSICAL PROPERTIES AND CROP YIELD OF BARELY (HORDEUM VULGARE)

2024-12-04T15:30:15+00:00

The study was conducted at the Station of agricultural Research in the College of Agriculture and Marches, University of Thi- Qar, during the 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 seasons to study the impact of various tillage systems on certain physical properties of soil, yield, and components of barley. The treatments included various tillage systems which are moldboard plow(T1), chisel plow (T2) , moldboard plow with one pass of disc harrows (T3), chisel plow with one pass of disc harrows(T4), moldboard plow with three passes of disc harrow (T5), chisel plow with three passes of disc harrow (T6), and no tillage (T7). These treatments were arranged using a randomized complete block design (R.C.B.D) with three replications. The data were analyzed using the Genstat program, and mean comparisons were performed using the least significant difference (LSD) test. The results indicated a significant effect of tillage systems and year on the parameters studied. The treatment (T3) outperformed the other treatments in enhancing soil physical properties, yield, and components of barley crop.

GRAIN YIELD IN AUTUMN WHEAT PRODUCTION BASED ON ORGANIC FARMING

2024-12-04T16:44:24+00:00

The article presents the results of research on growing winter wheat based on organic farming on sierozem soils of the Kashkadarya region. The yield of winter grain crops directly depends on the applied mineral or organic fertilizers. In the studies, the lowest grain yield (28.9 t/ha) was observed in the variant without fertilizing with mineral and organic fertilizers. 10 tons per hectare. from 30 tons. under the influence of organic fertilizers and various biostimulants, the grain yield changed to 35.8-47.3 t/ha. The highest grain yield was 54.5 t/ha in the variant (N180P90K60).
