in order to study of use advantage in the intercropping system fennel (foeniculum vulgare mill) and fenugreek (trigonella foenum-graecum l) in different ratios of intercropping and sole cropping, an experiment with use replacement and additive intercropping based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted at the research station of faculty of agriculture, universi...

Intercropping could alleviate soil-borne diseases, however, few studies focused on the immunity of the host plant induced by the interspecific interactions. To test whether or not intercropping could enhance the disease resistance of host plant, we investigated the effect of companion cropping with potato onion on tomato Verticillium wilt caused by Verticillium dahliae (V. dahliae). To investig...

to evaluate yield and productivity indices of maize and sugar beet intercropping with different planting ratios, a field experiment was conducted in randomized complete block design with three replication at hamedan province in nahavand, in 2013. the planting ratios were 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75 and 0:100 (maiz: sugar beet) using replacement method. results showed that intercropping had signi...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the diversity and abundance edaphic fauna organisms in single intercropped systems sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) ecologically-based popcorn (Zea mays) Red Oxisol, Northwest region state Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Four cultivars were used with popcorn: BRS Amélia, Rubissol, Cuia Crioula. soil assessment carried out using PROVID-type traps. Richness, d...

intercropping is a correct method of management for crop production and leads to improvement of resource absorption and use by plants. in order to evaluate light interception and some characteristics of canopy in monocropping and intercropping of maize (zea mays l.) and faba bean (vicia faba l.) under climatic conditions of tabriz, a field experiment was conducted in 2006-2007 at the research s...

in order to investigate the weed diversity and modeling light interception in sole and intercropping millet and bean an experiment was conducted as complete randomized block design with 4 treatments and 4 replications at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran, during 2008. treatments included monocultures, intercropping of millet and bean and a control treatment...

plant dry matter accumulation has a linear relation with accumulative photosynthetically active radiation (par). intercropping could be a strategy for increasing light absorption in agronomic systems and it may improve radiation use efficiency (rue). thus this study was conducted in order to evaluate radiation absorption and use efficiency in potato (solanum tuberosum l.) –corn (zea mays l.) in...

Intercropping leek (Allium porrum L.) and celery (Apium graveolens L.) was recognized as an option to reduce growth and reproductive potential of weeds while maintaining yield and product quality of both crops on a high level. To optimise the intercropping system for yield, quality and weed suppression a combined use of mechanistic and descriptive models, together with experimental work, was ap...
