چکیده

Mixed fruit tree and vegetable (MFV) farms correspond to the joint production of trees crops. In temperate regions, this emerging farming system is a potentially attractive land use foster diversification agricultural systems. However, these systems combine two productive labor-intensive enterprises (orchard market gardening) in practice, feasibility depends on availability need for labor. Long-term yield predictions are needed assess economic profitability such innovative A dynamic bio-economic model MFV was developed its main properties over time. This simple state-control based yields, biological dynamics, workload requirements each enterprise. Due lack data from long-term experiments, parametrized specialized calibrated with expert knowledge. The implementation made it possible simulate management strategies crops trees, their impact dynamics. Results show that gardening enterprise has an overall higher per hectare than trees. Nevertheless, mixed composed roughly equivalent shares make decrease constraints while maintaining high level profitability. addition, intermediate can lead long term, but require addressing both short- objectives, ability farmers cope several consecutive years lower income. Further research now better understand processes underlying evolution different configurations.

Small mammals as indicators of short-term and long-term disturbance in mixed prairie.

Disturbance by military maneuvers over short and long time scales may have differential effects on grassland communities. We assessed small mammals as indicators of disturbance by military maneuvers in a mixed prairie in southern Oklahoma USA. We examined sites on two soil series, Foard and Lawton, across a gradient of disturbance intensity. A MANOVA showed that abundance of small mammals was a...
