In the tropics, cowpea is often intercropped with maize. Little is known about the effect of the intercropped maize on N2-fixation by cowpea or how intercropping affects nitrogen fertilizer use efficiency or soil N-uptake of both crops. Cowpea and maize were grown as a monocrop at row spacings of 40, 50, 60, 80, and 120 cm and intercropped at row spacing of 40, 50, and 60 cm. Plots were fertili...

this study was conducted in split plot design based on a randomized complete block design in naghadeh region, urmia, iran in 2009-10. two sowing patterns including a1) single row planting with 50 cm between-row spacing, and a2) two rows planting on the hill with 40 cm distance and 50 cm between-row spacing (40×50) were allocated to main plots and four furrow compactions including b1) control, b...

Recent interest by producers, researchers, and industry personnel concerning the use of grain drills utilizing 7-in. versus 10-in. row spacing have raised questions as to the optimal drill-row spacing for rice. With the increase in hybrid rice produced and the associated low seeding rates, questions arose regarding the response of these cultivars to row widths. The objective of this study was t...

in order to evaluation of plant densities and row spacing effects on growth and yield of wheat, an experiment was conducted by using four plant densities (125, 250, 375 and 500 plants per m2),two row spacing (12.5 and 25 cm), in a randomized complete block design with three replicates in anbare-ololum reign in rainfed and saline conditions during 2008-2009. results showed that leaf area index (...

sowing date and plant density are important factors in grain yield of cow pea. in order to study effect of sowing date and plant density on yield and yield components of cow pea, an experiment was conducted in research farm of ramin university of agricultural and natural resources in 2008. the experimental design was split plots in randomized complete design with four replications. the experime...

Increasing level of carbon dioxide CO2 due to industrial activity is primarily cause of global warming. Planting Artoplex lentiformis can help to reduce atmospheric CO2 buildup partly replacing use of fuels and by carbon storage. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of row spacing on carbon storage. A split- plot design with three replications included three row spacing (2×2...

this study was conducted in split plot design based on a randomized complete block design in naghadeh region, urmia, iran in 2009-10. two sowing patterns including a1) single row planting with 50 cm between-row spacing, and a2) two rows planting on the hill with 40 cm distance and 50 cm between-row spacing (40×50) were allocated to main plots and four furrow compactions including b1) control, b...

The mungbean production area is increasing in Australia due to increasing demand for the grain in Asian countries. However, the mungbean crop is generally grown with wide row spacing, and therefore, it is prone to heavy weed infestation which has a significant impact on the mungbean grain yield. Experiments were conducted in 2015 and 2016 to determine the row-spacing impact on crop yield and we...
