to evaluate the yield and yield components in additive intercropping system of grain sorghum (sorghum bicolor l.) and cowpea (vigna unguiculata l.) under limited irrigation condition, an experiment was conducted in research farm of college of agriculture, university of tehran, during spring 2006. the experimental treatments were arranged in split plots based on a complete randomized block desig...

Nitrogen (N) cycling was determined in monocultures of Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench and alley cropped sorghum with Acacia saligna (Labill.) H. Wendl. in semiarid Northern Kenya. N input through biological N2 fixation of the acacia, N transfer from the legume to the intercrop and losses of applied N through harvest and 15 leaching were estimated using N enrichment. The biological N fixation and N...

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...
