This research was carried out to determine the appropriate sowing density in camelina in Tokat ecological conditions. The study was carried out using Ames 26680 camelina genotype in 2016 and 2017 for two years. In this study, 10, 20, 30 and 40 cm row spacings were used. Plant height (cm), number of branches per, number of capsules per plant, number of seed / capsule, thousand seed weight (g), seed yield (kg/da), oil ratio (%) and oil yield (kg/da) were investigated. According to the results, the seed yields of the two years were significantly different. The highest yields were obtained from 20 cm (132,0 kg/da) in 2016 and from 40 cm row spacing (130,6 kg/da) in 2017. As the average of two years, yields from 20, 30 and 40 cm row spacings did not differ significantly. As the average of two years, the oil rate was 36,2% and the oil yield was 43 kg/da. Thus, it is concluded that in fall sowing under Tokat conditions, camelina can be sown in 20 to 40 cm row spacing using 10 kg seed per hectare.

This research was conducted to compare single and twin-row planting patterns and to determine optimum plant density for hybrid maize varieties (DKC5364, P0573), grown in Western Blacksee conditions of Türkiye, in the main crop growing season in 2020. The experimental design was a randomized complete block in a split-split plot arrangement with three replications. Hybrid maize varieties were in the main plots, planting patterns (single row (70 cm) and twin row (70-20cm) were in the split plots and plant densities of 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 plants/m2 were in the split- split plots. In the current study, plant height, first ear height, stem diameter, ears number per plant, ear length, ear diameter, and ear weigth were examined. Effects of varieties, planting patterns and plant densities on plant heights, first ear heights, ears numbers per plants and ear weigths were statistically significant. Higher values were observed at DKC5364 maize variety than P0573 variety for examined characteristics. The most suitable plant densities were determined as 11 plants/m2 for grain production and 12 plants/m2 for silage production in twin row plantig in Western Blacksee conditions of Türkiye
