Abstract The results of research conducted by Voronezh State Agrarian University to determine the effect binary sunflower plantings in combination with postharvest sideration on content plant residues soil, number soil microorganisms, dynamics detritus, infestation and yield are presented. positive effects studied complex biological function was well established increase organic matter sources ...

Optimal design and application of field protection forest strips in agricultural landscapes significantly changes the surrounding microclimate increases level crop productivity. A historical analysis development on territory Ukraine was carried out. We have allocated seven periods plantations are characterized. The first period characterized by creation a system artificial plantings around home...

Two different olive cultivars grown under a high-density hedgerow system were studied to compare their fruiting and branch architecture features determine the possibility use ‘Calatina’ trees for intensive plantings, as local alternative international reference ‘Arbequina’. Weights of two-year-old branches, fruits leaves recorded estimate growth partitioning. Growth architectural parameters, su...

The impacts of biochar amendment on the quality and quantity runoff, substrate properties soil fauna in two types experimental vegetated roofs (‘plantings’ ‘mats’) were examined during a 7-year period southern Finland. Biochar reduced leaching phosphorus (P) both plantings, which established with seeds meadow plants 100-mm-thick crushed brick mixture as growth medium, mats comprising 40-mm-thic...

Objective: Ecosystems with mixed species compared to the ones with pure compositions provide a broader range of options in the fields of biodiversity, conservation, protection and restoration. Nearly all forest plantations are established as monocultures, but research has shown that there are potential advantages to be gained by using carefully designed species mixtures in place of monocultures...
