Trees on agricultural fields can have a positive or negative impact weed seedbank (WSB) due to diverse environmental and soil characteristics. Therefore, samples were drawn in six cropping systems [two agroforest (AFS): guava, mango; three horticulture (HCS): mango, Indian gooseberry; annual crop system (ACS)] at two landscape positions (lowland upland) depths (0-15 cm 15-30 cm) using factorial...

Vegetation pattern and landscape structure intersect to exert strong control over ecohydrological dynamics at the watershed scale. The hydrologic implications of vegetation disturbance (e.g. fire, disease) depend on the spatial pattern and form of environmental change. Here, we investigate this intersection at Tenderfoot Creek Experimental Forest (TCEF), Montana, with a focus on the mountain pi...

Intensive forest management practices have been shown to increase tree growth and shorten rotation time. However, they may also lead to an increased need for insect pest management because of higher infestation levels and lower action thresholds. To investigate the relationship between intensive management practices and insect infestation, maximum growth potential studies of loblolly pine, Pinu...

abstract in order to evaluate the influence of nitrogen application and duration of weed interference on corn (zea mays l.) yield and yield components, a field study was conducted in 2004 at the ferdowsi university of mashhad research field. the experimental design was a randomized complete block with a factorial treatment arrangement replicated three times. nitrogen fertilizer was applied at r...
