Background: Incidence of fall armyworm in maize has been reported at a severe level since 2018 resulting low yield and extreme cases complete failure the crop. In view undesirable effects unilateral reliance on chemicals, greener avenues like intercropping needs to be explored, which promise subside pests, as well as, provide higher income cultivators. Method: Field experiment was conducted fro...

in order to evaluate the yield and nitrogen use efficiency of corn and cotton intercropping under different levels of nitrogen, an experiment was conducted as a factorial arrangement based on completely randomized block design with three replications. the experimental treatments were nitrogen fertilizers in four levels (0, 50, 100 and 150 kg ha-1) and planting pattern in three levels (maize sol...

Intercropping is considered for increasing and stability of yield per unit. In order to study the effects of different intercropping arrangements on sorghum and mungbean yield and to find the land use advantage in the intercropping system, an experiment was carried out based on a randomized complete block design with seven treatments and three replications at the Research Farm, Faculty of Agric...

in order to study yield and yield components in intercropping bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.) and sweet basil (ocimum basilicum l.) and evaluating effect of intercropping on weed control, a field experiment was conducted at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad during growing season of 2008. treatments: included 1- sole crop of bean 2- sole crop of sweet basil 3- strip ...

Maize (Zea mays L.)–legume intercropping is common cropping system among smallholder farmers in West Africa. However, little known about the income risk reduction associated with maize–legume strip A 3-yr study was conducted Upper and Northern regions of Ghana to determine effect on productivity, income, using a randomized complete block design five replications each region. Seven treatments we...

The field experiments were conducted during the wet season of 2015 and 2016 (June to October) at Agricultural Farm, Institute Agriculture, Visva-Bharati, Sriniketan, India study impact integrated use weed mulch herbicide with closer spacing on growth yield direct seeded dry sown rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivar MTU 1010. experiment consisted twelve treatments involving sole or application pre-em...

in order to evaluate the yield, yield components and protein contents of two wheat cultivars (zarrin and gaspard) in sole cropping and intercropping systems,an experiment was conducted using replacement serious technique and different combinations of intercropping with high plant density and optimal of each cultivar. a factorial experiment was conducted in the form of randomized complete block ...
