Agroforestry is considered a means to provide sustainable and productive agriculture. This work aims study the effect of fruit-grass agroforestry patterns on soil moisture, salinity, growth, yield fruit trees, as well reference for development complex systems in Northwest China. The has been designed with two cropping patterns: monocropped apple apple-ryegrass intercropping. results showed that...

The scarcity of water resources throughout the world demands its optimum utilization in various sectors. Smart Sensing-enabled irrigation management systems are ideal solutions to ensure agriculture sector. This paper presents a wireless sensor network-enabled Decision Support System (DSS) for developing need-based schedule orange orchard. For efficient monitoring in-field parameters, our propo...

We introduce the Orchard crossing number, which is defined in a similar way to the well-known rectilinear crossing number. We compute the Orchard crossing number for some simple families of graphs. We also prove some properties of this crossing number. Moreover, we define a variant of this crossing number which is tightly connected to the rectilinear crossing number, and compute it for some sim...

The continuous rise in the world’s population has increased need for food, resulting a of agricultural holdings to ensure supply these goods directly populations and indirectly all processing industries food business. This situation led agriculture reinvent itself introduce new technics tools tighter control crops increase yields production. However, lack labor coupled with evolution weeds resi...

Video multicast is an important application for P2P networks, which can benefit from the load repartitioning and large scale distribution properties they have to offer. In this context, the Orchard algorithm was developed in 2007, with an aim to build a P2P system meeting video multicast requirements. However, Orchard suffers from a slow overlay construction and a potentially high end-to-end de...

A study was designed to evaluate the micronutrients status of soils of district Palandri, Azad Kashmir and to correlate the micronutrients with Physico-chemical characteristics of soil as well as to categorize the soils as high, medium and low in Cu, Zn, Fe, Mn and HWS B. Soil samples were collected from thirty wheat fields and thirty apple orchard soils during 2003. None of the soil sample was...

High-density apple (Malus domestica) orchard management techniques and productivity were evaluated on an old orchard replant site in North Carolina. Trees were planted at 5 × 10 ft (1.5 × 3.0 m), giving a tree density of 871 trees/acre (2152 trees/ha). Well-branched ‘Smoothee Golden Delicious’ trees on ‘Mark’ rootstock were planted in 1990. Orchard-management factors which increased cumulative ...
