Augmentative control has been successfully applied against a range of open-field and greenhouse pests, and ...
متن کاملCover Crops in Sustainable Food Production
Cover crops are important components of sustainable agricultural systems. They increase surface residue and aid in the reduction of soil erosion. They improve the structure and water-holding capacity of the soil and thus increase the effectiveness of applied N fertilizer. Legume cover crops such as hairy vetch and crimson clover fix nitrogen and contribute to the nitrogen requirements of subseq...
