to compare the quantity and quality of forge production in intercropping systems with maize, pinto bean and pumpkin, an experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted at faculty of agricultural science, university of guilan, during 2012 growing season. the treatments consisted of maize, pinto bean and naked pumpkin sole cropping, maize – pinto bean an...

Nematode egg hatch is an important phase in the life cycle (1). Factors that influence this process may have a highly significant effect upon the survival of the nematode, its generation time, and its ability to incite disease. Root diffusates and seasonal changes in environmental, physical, and chemical factors that are related to diapause in unhatched larvae affect the hatching of plant-paras...

The aim of this study was to assess the effects of strip cropping and different weed control methods on the yield and yield structure of dent maize, narrow-leafed lupin and spring oat. A split-plot design with four replications was conducted in 2008-2010. The following factors were analysed in the experiment: I. Cultivation method – sole cropping and strip cropping; II. Weed control method ...

to study the response of pinto-bean yield and yield components in intercropping with maize and naked-pumpkin under weed competition, two similar experiments were conducted in rasht and roudsar separately each in a randomized complete block design with 3 replications on factorial arrangements experiment in 2013. the treatments of first factor consisted of  pinto bean (100 and 75%) sole cropping,...

Abstract To find out how maize and potato can grow and develop in an intercropping system rather than each grown alone in a sole cropping system the following factorial experiment was performend in the frame-work of a randomized complete block three replications in the experimental farm of the faculty of agriculture, Zanjan University in year 2004. Different potato to maize ratios of (1:0), i...

Soil degradation has been a very serious problem for sustainable production, especially by a re-cropping of greenhouse-cultivated cucumber (Cucumis statirus L.). The aim of this research was to expound the actuality for soil degradation, at the same time, put forward some suggestion for preventing from soil degradation and maintain sustainable production in greenhouse basic on the two experimen...

intercropping is one of the most important approaches for sustainable agricultural production. in order to evaluate the effect of planting patterns and millet density on forage yield of millet and soybean, an experiment was conducted in the research farm of faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad during the 2007-2008 growing season. the experiment was performed as factorial based...
