|
| Level of Course Unit |
| Second Cycle |
| Objectives of the Course |
| In this course, detailed information is given about the nutritional element circulation of plants with the aim of increasing and sustaining fertility in grasslands. Within this context, application time and amount of organic and inorganic nutritional element resources applicable in grasslands are determined and the ability to build interdisciplinary relations about the efficacy of climate, soil and other factors is gained. |
| Name of Lecturer(s) |
| Yrd. Doç.Dr. Ösmetullah ARVAS |
| Learning Outcomes |
| 1 | The nutritional elements that grasslands need unlike field agriculture. | | 2 | Application styles, time, superiority and disadvantages of chemical and biological nutritional elements of plants. | | 3 | Positive and negative effects of macro and micro nutritional elements on the biological diversity in grasslands. | | 4 | The effects of nutritional element resources applied on water and soil pollution and the formation of eutrophication. | | 5 | The reasons of nutrition losses in grasslands eliminating it. |
