Abstract

To study the response of three sorghum cultivars to different nutritional treatments in sustainable agriculture, this experiment was conducted in 2013 at the plant production center of Tehran Municipal, District 5. The experiment was conducted in split plot in the form of a randomized complete block design with three replications and two factors: cultivar in three levels including Speedfeed (V 1), Payam (V2) and Sepideh (V3), and nutritional treatments in eight levels including 300 kg/ha urea (N 1), 100 kg/ha urea + 2 t/ha animal manure + foliar application of 0.5% salicylic acid (N 2), 100 kg/ha urea + 4 t/ha animal manure + salicylic acid (N3), 100 kg/ha urea + 6 t/ha animal manure + salicylic acid (N4), 100 kg/ha urea + 2 t/ha vermicompost + salicylic acid (N5), 100 kg/ha urea + 4 t/ha vermicompost + salicylic acid (N 6), 100 kg/ha urea + 6 t/ha vermicompost + salicylic acid (N 7), 300 kg/ha urea + salicylic acid (N 8). Analysis of variance indicated the significant effect of cultivar, nutrition and the interaction of the two factors on all measured traits. Mean comparison of cultivars showed that fresh weight was the highest in Speedfeed cultivar (73.59 g/plant) and the lowest in Sepideh cultivar (25.55 g/plant). Among the nutritional treatments, fresh weight was the highest in 100 kg/ha urea + 2 t/ha vermicompost + salicylic acid (86.28 g/plant) and the lowest in 300 kg/ha urea + salicylic acid (35.61 g/plant).
