  • Nitrogen and Phosphorus Fertilizing of Carrots
    TECHNICAL BULLETIN 99 ISSN 0070-2315 NITROGEN AND PHOSPHORUS FERTILIZING OF CARROTS P.I. Orphanos and V. D. Krentos AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH INSTITUTE MINISTRY OF AGRICULTURE AND NATURAL RESOURCES NITROGEN AND PHOSPHORUS FERTILIZING OF CARROTS P.I. Orphanos and V. D. Krentos SUMMARY Carrots have been an important export crop since the mid 1950s but the course of theindustly in production, price of the produce and exports has been rather enatic. The crop is sown in November and harvested in April through June. Before 1974 carrot growing was concentrated in the Argaki-Katokopia-Zodhia area. The eight experiments reported here were carried out in this area over the period 1968-71, and tested the combinations of four rates of N (0.63, 126. and 189 kgha) and four rates of P (0.23,46,and 69 kgiha). As a result of previous fertilizer P application. all experimental soils but one tested more than 8 ppm Olsen P. The test variety was Chantenay but in the last experiment Nantes was also included. In sir out of the eight experiments N increased yield significantly, and 63 to 1'26 kg Niha was required for maximum yield. By contrast only in one experiment in which the soil tested a mere 1 ppm Olsen P was yield increased by fertilizer P up to the rate of 46 kg Piha. The increase in yield due to N application was accompanied by a coincident increase in the percentage of exportable yield but at the highest N rate (189 kg Nha) percent exportable yield slightly declined. The dry matter content and the N,P and K contents of the roots were not influenced by either N or P fertilizing.

  • Security Council Distr.: General 4 June 2007
    United Nations S/2007/328 Security Council Distr.: General 4 June 2007 Original: English Report of the Secretary-General on the United Nations Operation in Cyprus I. Introduction 1. The present report on the United Nations operation in Cyprus covers developments from 25 November 2006 to 25 May 2007, and brings up to date the record of activities carried out by the United Nations Peacekeeping Force in Cyprus (UNFICYP) pursuant to Security Council resolution 186 (1964) and subsequent Council resolutions, the most recent being resolution 1728 (2006). 2. As at 30 April 2007, the strength of the military component stood at 856 all ranks and the strength of the police component stood at 64 (see annex). II. Mission of good offices and other developments 3. On 15 December, the Security Council adopted resolution 1728 (2006), by which, inter alia, it expressed full support for the process agreed upon by the Greek Cypriot leader, Tassos Papadopoulos, and the Turkish Cypriot leader, Mehmet Ali Talat, on 8 July 2006, and encouraged active participation in bicommunal discussions as described in the letter dated 15 November 2006 from the then Under-Secretary-General Ibrahim Gambari, to which both leaders had responded positively, under the auspices of my Special Representative. The Security Council called for the early completion of the preparatory phase so that a fully fledged good offices process might resume as soon as possible. At the same time, the Council regretted the continued lack of trust between the parties, which had prevented the implementation of the 8 July agreement. 4. Over the past six months, my Special Representative has continued efforts aimed at facilitating the implementation of the 8 July agreement (see S/2006/572) through intensive discussions with the two leaders and their representatives.

PERMANENT MISSION OF THE REPUBLIC OF CYPRUS TO THE UNITED NATIONS BZO SECOND AVENUE NEW YORK, N. Y. IOOI7 Ref: 2002/77/2 Excellency, I have the honour to refer to the decision of the President of Cyprus, Mr. Kyprianou, to visit during this month the Greek Cypriot citizens of the Republic in the occupied area of Karpass. This decision, together with a request that the necessary facilities might be provided by the United Nations, was communicated yesterday to your Special Representative, Ambassador Galindo Pohl, who undertook to communicate with the Secretary-General on the subject. Sub- sequently, Ambassador Pohl informed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that Mr. Denktash places conditions for such visit, to the effect that a letter by the President of the Republic should be addressed to him as President of the so-called "Turkish Federated State of Cyprus", or that a meeting between them be arranged to discuss the matter. The President has the legitimate and fundamental right to visit citizens of the Republic in any part of the territory, particularly when, as in this case, the visit is motivated purely by humanitarian reasons, having regard to the situation of the Greek Cypriot citizens in the Karpass.

  • The Intercommunal Relations Between Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots in the Mixed Village of Argaki
    The Intercommunal Relations between Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots in the Mixed Village of Argaki ERAL AKARTURK Abstract This article continues the story from where Peter Loizos’ celebrated study left off. It looks at how Turkish Cypriots experienced life in the mixed village of Argaki/Akçay from 1955 to 1974 and explores their relationships with their Greek Cypriot neighbours during the periods of tension and crisis in Cyprus. It also produces an ethnographic description with some narrative about intercommunal relations in the village of Argaki. Keywords: Argaki, intercommunal, tension, narrative, demographic, crisis, Turkish Cypriots, Greek Cypriots, neighbour, relations Introduction An Overview of the Political Conflicts in Cyprus Before examining the main theme which looks at aspects of how Turkish Cypriots lived in the village of Argaki/Akçay, where the Greek Cypriots were the demographically dominant group during the conflicts in Cyprus, this paper briefly reviews the political conflicts in Cyprus, from 1878 to 1955, and from 1956 to 1974. The chapter draws on Sant Cassia’s (2005) account of a brief history of inter-ethnic relations in Cyprus to clarify the periods of conflicts mentioned above. Cyprus, which is the third largest island in the Mediterranean region, consisted mainly of a Greek-speaking Christian Orthodox population until it was seized from the Venetians by the Ottoman Turks in 1571. In 1878, Cyprus was transferred to Britain, and from that year onwards, Greek Cypriots began campaigning for a political union with Greece (enosis). In the 1950s, an armed struggle was mounted against Britain by EOKA, a Greek Cypriot nationalist secret organisation.
