Analysis of drought in the marmara region using the standardized precipitation index
Drought is one of the most damaging climate-related hazards. The economic, social and agricultural impacts of drought have increased significantly in recent years. In this study, drought analysis in the Marmara region was examined using the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) as a drought index. Monthly precipitation data in the region for the period of 1975 to 2005 were used to calculate the annual, quarterly and monthly SPI at 32 stations. The longest and most intensive droughts were recorded in 1977, 1989, 1990,1992 and 1993. Conversely, 1975, 1981, 1997,1998 and 2005 were wet years
Effects of spent mushroom compost on quality and productivity of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) grown in greenhouses
This study was conducted to determine the effects of spent mushroom compost (SMC), which is a waste product of mushroom processing through a year, on greenhouse cucumber growth as an organicmatter source for the soil. The effects of SMC on several yield related characteristics, such as total yield, fruit width, fruit length, total soluble solids, first quality fruit yield in total yield and nutritioncontent of the cucumber fruit were investigated. The effects of SMC on total yield and fruit width obtained during the whole vegetation period were statistically significant. On the other hand, no significant differences were determined among the SMC treatments for the first quality fruit yield, total soluble solids and fruit length. The highest total fruit yield was obtained at 40 ton ha-1 and it was followed by 80 and 20 ton ha-1 SMC applications. The highest values of fruit width and the nitrogen contents in cucumber were found at 80 ton ha-1 SMC application. Based on the present study it was concluded that as an organic material source and amendment of greenhouse soil application of at least 6 months waited SMC was very effective and beneficiary for cucumber growth, productivity and recycling the spent mushroom compost
