More than half of the Australian cropping land is no-tillage and weed control within continuous no-tillage agricultural cropping area is becoming more and more difficult. A major problem is that the heavy herbicide usage causes some of more prolific weeds becoming more resistant to the regular herbicides and therefore more powerful and more expensive options are being pursued. To overcome such ...

crops every 3 yr) and even continuous (annual) cropping in some instances. For example, annualized grain yields Water is the principle limiting factor in dryland cropping systems. for WCF are 75 to 100% greater than WF (Peterson et Surface soil physical properties influence infiltration and cropping al., 2000). Cropping intensification has been possible systems under no-till management may affe...

Management of damaging invasive plants is often undertaken by multiple decision makers, each managing only a small part of the invader's population. As weeds can move between properties and re-infest eradicated sites from unmanaged sources, the dynamics of multiple decision makers plays a significant role in weed prevalence and invasion risk at the landscape scale. We used a spatially explicit ...

intercropping may be helpful manner to increase interception and utilization. the aim of this study was to compare radiation use efficiency and radiation interception in intercropping with sole cropping. an experiment was conducted at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad in the growing season of the year 2008. the experimental treatments were: 1- sole crop of bean 2...

in order to determinate the effects of plant densities in intercropped corn (zea mays l.) and bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.) on radiation absorption and use efficiency, an experiment was conducted at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran during growing season of 2007-2008. this experiment was conducted in low input system. a randomized complete block design with ...

to evaluate the yield and quality of barley (hordeum vulgare)–vetch (vicia desycarpa) intercropping, a series of experiments were conducted at the experimental field of the college of agriculture, university of tehran, in karaj (iran) from 2003 to 2005. the ex-periments were arranged in a randomized complete block with a split plot design and four replications. three levels (0, 45 and 90 kg n h...

in order to study the possibility of intercropping of basil and sesame, an experiment was carried out in a randomized complete block design with three replications at the sari agricultural sciences and natural resources university during growing season of 2009-2010. treatments consisted of different planting ratio, p1: sole cropping of basil, p2: 75% basil+ 25% sesame, p3: 50% basil+ 50 % sesam...

A field experiment was conducted during kharif season of 2017 at Soil Conservation and Water Management Farm the Chandra Shekhar Azad University Agriculture Technology, Kanpur to find out effect cropping systems doses FYM on growth, yield, water use efficiency, splash loss economics crops under rainfed condition. The treatments comprised 4 i.e. (i) sole sorghum, 45 cm apart (ii) greengram, (iii...

abstract in order to investigate the effects of nutrient resources and weed management on qualitative and quantitative criteria of cat tyme (teucrium polium), an experiment was conducted as split plot based on a complete randomized block design with 3 replications at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran, during the years 2008 and 2009. treatments included diff...
