The objective of this investigation was to assess the direct and residual effect graded levels boron (B) on growth, yield quality parameters crops in cauliflower-cowpea-okra cropping sequence. For experimentation, cauliflower grown as a test crop B fertilization while cowpea okra were succeeding fertilization. study revealed an incremental trend plant physiological corresponding escalating leve...

in order to study the effect of intercropping (mix cropping) of three sesame genotypes (sabzevar, kashmar and kalat) a field experiment was conducted based on a complete randomized block design with three replications at research station, college of agriculture ferdowsi university of mashhad, in year 2009. the experimental treatments were: sole cultivation of sabzevar, kalat, kashmar genotypes,...

There is a need to assess alternative cropping systems for climate change mitigation. Hence, we aimed evaluate if cowpea, legume crop with high adaptability and active rhizodeposition, can reduce GHG emissions when intercropped melon, different intercropping patterns affect these soil emissions, elucidate are related by properties. We compared cowpea melon monocultures melon-cowpea during two c...

this experiment was carried out to study the effects of corn and green gram intercropping on yield and some quality characteristics of forage at agricultural research station of gorgan during summer 2006 & 2007. the experimental design was a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with twelve treatments and four replications. a local green gram and corn single cross 550 were the crops used in t...

An experiment was carried out during the winter season (rabi) for two years 2019-20 and 2020-21 on Instructional cum Research Farm, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalay, Raipur (C.G.) to enhance production of baby corn through intercropping. The laid in randomized block design (RBD) with eight treatment consisting sole paired row along a combination various legumes. treatments were T1 : (45 x 20...

Jatropha curcas is an oleaginous plant whose seed yield low. The present study aimed at evaluating pests associated with J. curcas. In regards to the densities, Denticera near divisella density was obtained 0.85 larvae per in sole farming and 0.70, 0.61, respectively when intercropped casava, maize cowpea. When cassava Stomphastis thraustica most encountered species a of 1.28 while 0.61 for 0.2...

Reduction of the quantity and quality forage is one main restrictions on productivity livestock systems. Tropical legumes are most important crops to improve feeds and, thus, for providing products human consumption in arid regions. In order investigate shift cultivation date two from summer spring weather conditions, a factorial experiment randomized complete block design with three replicatio...

Crop models are useful tools for simulating the impact of climate change on crop growth, development and yield. This study assesses cowpea yield in soils with low levels phosphorous content mainly Sudan Savanna Forest Transition Zone West Africa. A model solution within general modelling framework SIMPLACE combination output four 3 contrasting shared socio-economic scenarios (SSP126, SSP370, SS...

introduction intercropping is an old and widespread practice used in low input cropping systems in many areas of the world. in fact, intercropping is claimed to be one of the most significant cropping techniques in sustainable agriculture, and many researches and reviews attribute its utilization to the number of environmental benefits from promoting land biodiversity to diversifying agricultur...

Viral diseases are a major problem for cowpea production in Nigeria, causing yield reductions of up to 100%. To combat this, farmers use insecticide sprays and manipulate plant population densities. A field experiment was conducted the Southern Guinea Savannah agro-ecological zone Nigeria 2016 cropping season assess impact planting density insecticidal spray regimes on virus cowpea. The study f...
