Abstracts

EN

Indian mustard (Brassica juncea L. Czern) cultivation is suggested for regions with short seasons and low rainfall. Although there have been many studies conducted on agronomic production of mustard in Iran, the information regarding the interactive impact of cropping seasons and nitrogen fertiliser on growth characteristics and yield quality of mustard plant is still insufficient and requires further investigation. This study focused on the possible implications of different cropping seasons and different nitrogen levels on selected agronomic traits in mustard. In this experiment, five different doses of nitrogen and two sowing periods were used to assess for their combined effects on the growth parameters, seed yield and agronomic characteristics of mustard in the semi-arid climatic conditions of Takestan. The results revealed that cultivation seasons and nitrogen rates had a significant effect on plant height, biomass yield, number of siliques per plant, seed oil content and seed yield.

PL

Gorczyca sarepska = kapusta sitowata (Brassica juncea L. Czern), jest charakterystyczna dla upraw w regionach o krótkich porach roku oraz mniejszych ilościach opadów. Obecnie w Iranie brakuje wystarczającej wiedzy rolniczej do wydajnej produkcji gorczycy. W artykule tym, będącym formą pracy przeglądowej i badawczej jednocześnie, skoncentrowano się na produkcji gorczycy w półsuchym regionie oraz ocenie jakości jej oleistych nasion. Celem pracy było również porównanie nawożenia pięcioma różnymi dawkami azotu (w postaci mocznika), w trakcie dwukrotnego wysiewu oraz zbadanie wpływu tych dawek na wzrost, plon nasion i niektóre właściwości agronomiczne gorczycy, w warunkach agroklimatycznych Takestanu (Iran). Wyniki pokazały, że sezon uprawy oraz dawki azotu, miały znaczący wpływ na wzrost roślin, plon biomasy, liczbę owoców – łuszczyn na roślinę, zawartość oleju siewnego i ogólny plon ziarna. Data sadzenia, warunki środowiskowe, nawożenie są ważnymi czynnikami wpływającymi na jakość i ilość plonów gorczycy.
