the experiment was conducted in order to evaluate of competitive and economic indices in canola and pea intercropping at different rates of nitrogen fertilizer at shahrekord university research farm during 1390 - 1391. intercropping and sole cropping treatments (100% canola; 66% canola + 33% pea, 50% canola + 50% pea; 33% canola + 66% pea; 100% pea) were evaluated as the first factor and nitrog...

intercropping is considered for increasing and stability of yield per unit. in order to study the effects of different intercropping arrangements on sorghum and mungbean yield and to find the land use advantage in the intercropping system, an experiment was carried out based on a randomized complete block design with seven treatments and three replications at the research farm, faculty of agric...

Strong benefits of species diversity have been demonstrated in mixed cropping on rangelands. In order to determine the best composition of mixed cropping of alfalfa (Medicago sativa) with three cool season grass species (Agropyron elongatum, Agropyron desertorum and Festuca arundinacea), on yield and quality traits, an experiment was conducted during two years (2009 and 2010) in Bojnourd, Iran....

The aim of current study was to determine intercropping forage turnip “FT” with cereals “C” (barley, “B”, wheat “W” and oat “O”) for herbage yield competitive ratios in Bilecik conditions 2019-2002 2020-2021 growing periods. Plants were sown as sole 3 different mixtures (75FT+25C%, 50FT+50C% 25FT+75C %). Experiments arranged a randomized complete block design three replications. In the study, y...

Intercropping is a sustainable practice to achieve higher production with the aim to limit external inputs. A field experiment was conducted at the research farm of the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Maragheh, Maragheh, Iran, during 2016 growing seasons with ten treatments to evaluate the yield, analyze the competition and insect’s assemblages in sunflower (as main plant)/soybean (as com...

In semiarid environments of the Mediterranean region, intercropping is a sustainable agricultural system long standing. this area, pea (Pisum sativum L.) one most commonly grown legume crops. Little information available on quality silages to be obtained from forage mixtures intercropped with cereals or annual grasses. study, two experiments were conducted over course growing seasons in Sicily ...

Grass and legume mixtures work well, but there are no data on the mixed planting of desho grass (Pennisetum glaucifolium) Vicia species. A study was conducted to investigate whether forage dry matter yield (DMY) quality can be improved by growing species in with grass. The experimental layout followed a randomized complete block design four replications, where treatments consisted pure stands t...

The spatial variation in plant species associated with intercropping is intended to reduce resource competition between species and increase yield potential. A field experiment was carried out on corn (Zea mays L.) and soybean (Glycine max L.) intercropping in a replacement series experiment with weed contamination consist of: weed free, infestation of redroot pigweed, infestation of jimsonweed...

in order to study yield and yield components of fennel (foeniculum vulgare mill) – fenugreek (trigonella foenum-graecum l.) in different patterns 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, zanjan university, ira...

introduction cultivation of medicinal plants in agricultural ecosystems plays an important role in the diversification and sustainability of these systems (rezaei-chiyaneh & dabbagh mohammadi nassab, 2014). therefore, the application of ecological principles such as multi-ship system seems essential in the production of these plants. zarifpour et al. (2014) in intercropping arrangements of cumi...
