Aim of the study: To evaluate consequences for pork quality traits replacing soybean meal with Narbon vetch in pig diets.Area Castilla-Leon, Spain.Material and methods: 48 Duroc × Iberian barrows were fed diets 0% (V0), 5% (V5), 10% (V10) 20% (V20) inclusion vetch. Pork investigated 1) intramuscular fat, protein moisture content fresh loin, 2) fatty acid composition subcutaneous 3) sensory attr...

There are many different practices that contribute to conservation biological control, but little is known about their complementarity. We tested the effects of providing food and alternative hosts parasitoids by intercropping a plum orchard with companion plants. Oats vetch were intercropped into either as single-species (oats or vetch) two-species combined) intercrops within an inter-row. The...

Four phosphorus fertilizer rates (0, 30, 60, and 90 kg ha-1) were evaluated for the nine common vetches (Vicia sativa) varieties ,Clima, Hanka, Mikaela, Lujiliana, Marrianum, Mery, Beybi, Nigra, Namoi. Experiments was conducted during winter season of 2019-2020 in Sulaimani governorate at Qlyasan locations. The experiment designed Factorial CRBD (Randomized Complete Block Design) with three rep...

Zonal management of cereal–legume cover crop mixtures may help address weed and nitrogen challenges common in organic reduced tillage systems. During a field study conducted over 3 years Michigan, we evaluated the effects management, tillage, supplemental mulch on organically produced acorn squash ( Cucurbita pepo ). fall season before production, rye Secale cereale L.) vetch Vicia villosa Roth...

leach into groundwater after crop harvest in the fall, and depending on the species, can sequester atmospheric C Biculture legume–cereal cover cropping may enhance aboveand and/or N, thereby reducing the amount of N fertilizer belowground biomass yields and C and N contents. The increase in C and N supply to the soil has the potential to improve soil quality required for summer crops (Hargrove,...
