in order to evaluate the effects of yield and yield components and weed diversity and density in row intercropping for wheat and canola, a field experiment was conducted based on a complete randomized block design with three replications at the agricultural research station of ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran during two growing seasons of 2008-2009 and 2009-2010. treatments included four pa...

in order to evaluate intercropping of soybean (glycine max l. cv. jk) with sweet basil (ocimum basilicum l.) and borage (borago officinalis l.) with weed interference, an experiment was performed in randomized complete block design with 12 treatments and three replications at a field located 10 km of shirvan during year of 2011. the treatments were included 75% soybean: 25%sweet basil, 50%soybe...

in order to evaluate the effect of different intercropping arrangements of cumin and chickpea on seed yield and quality criteria of cumin an experiment was conducted in agricultural research station of ferdowsi university of mashhad in 2010 growing season. an experiment was conducted as split plot on the basis of complete randomized block design with three replicatons. the main plot included ar...

an experiment was conducted at the research farm of the faculty of agriculture, university of tabriz, iran in 2012 to study the effect of intercropping of chickpea and dragon’s head on yield, yield components and morphological traits of dragon’s head as affected by four weed management time. the experiment was laid out in rcb design with three replications. intercropping patterns included; a1, ...

intercropping is considered for increasing and stability of yield per unit. in order to study the effects of different intercropping arrangements on sorghum and mungbean yield and to find the land use advantage in the intercropping system, an experiment was carried out based on a randomized complete block design with seven treatments and three replications at the research farm, faculty of agric...

introduction evaluating yield in intercropping systems is based on selecting compatible plants with appropriate characteristics to establish minimum competition and maximum cooperation, and the application of suitable agricultural practices (crop density and intercropping ratio). the use of plant species with different morphological characteristics in terms of nutrient uptake and utilization of...

Watermelon is susceptible to Fusarium wilt in successively mono-cropped soil. Pot experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of intercropping with aerobic rice on Fusarium wilt in watermelon. The tested soil was classified as a loam soil, previously planted with watermelon and collected from Hexian county, Anhui province, China. The results obtained are listed as follows: (1) 66.7% ...

Intercropped corn (Zeu mays L.) and soybean [Glycine mux (L.) Merr.] may produce more total yield per hectare than either grown separately, ie., land equivalent ratio (LER) >l. Low N fertility, limited moisture, and weed competition have each been reported to result in high land equivalent ratios. Thus it was hypothesized that intercropping advantages were greater under stress conditions. The o...
