Interspecific interactions and recovery growth play an important role in crop growth, development ultimately yield intercropping systems. However, the impact of different water nitrogen levels on production, interspecific between intercrops, late-maturing crops is still unclear. A two-year field experiment was conducted Yangling, Shaanxi province, to investigate dynamics interactions, effects y...

Reclamation of abandoned farmland is crucial to a sustainable agriculture in arid regions. This study aims to evaluate the impact of different reclamation treatments on abandoned salinized farmland. We investigated four artificial reclamation treatments, continuous cotton (CC), continuous alfalfa (CA), tree-wheat intercropping (TW) and trees (TS), which were conducted in 2011–2012 in the Manasi...

Intercropping fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.) with naturally colored cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) may provide a beneficial socioeconomic, ecological and environmental alternative for recuperating agribusiness in fennel and cotton cultivations in northeast Brazil because these crops do not compete for nutrients. The objectives of this study were to investigate the vertical and horizontal dis...

Interspecific competition between species influences their individual growth and performance. Neighborhood effects become especially important in intercropping systems, and modeling approaches could be a useful tool to simulate plant growth under different environmental conditions to help identify appropriate combinations of different crops while managing competition. This study gives an overvi...

The effects of integrated nutrient management (INM) by municipal solid waste manure (MSWM) on wheat yield were studied in rice-wheat and cotton-wheat systems. each site was used as an independent experimental unit. Two fertilizer doses (conventional and site-specific) were applied in each of three improved techniques: chemical fertilizers, and MSWM plus chemical fertilizers with and without pes...

Using a stochastic version of the POLYSYS modeling framework, an examination of projected variability in agricultural prices, supply, demand, stocks, and incomes is conducted. Random yield and export shocks are introduced in each of 100 iterations of a ten-year simulation and planted acreage, production, total use, ending stock, stock-to-use, season average price, and net return results are pre...

Crop rotation and intercropping are important ways to increase agricultural resource utilization efficiency crop productivity. Alternate intercropping, or transposition is a new pattern in which two crops intercropped wide strip with planting positions switched annually on the same land. Transposition combines thus performs better than either practice alone. Compared traditional rotation, it ca...

in order to evaluate the yield, yield components and protein contents of two wheat cultivars (zarrin and gaspard) in sole cropping and intercropping systems,an experiment was conducted using replacement serious technique and different combinations of intercropping with high plant density and optimal of each cultivar. a factorial experiment was conducted in the form of randomized complete block ...
