Objective: For investigation of intercropping of maize and faba bean, an experiment was conducted in Research Station of Agriculture Faculty of Tabriz University during growing season of 2013. Methods: Experimental design was randomized complete block design with three replications and seven treatment. Treatments included one row intercropping (1:1), 4 strip intercropping pattern with ratios of...

intercropping is one of the most important approaches for sustainable agricultural production. in order to evaluate the effect of planting patterns and millet density on forage yield of millet and soybean, an experiment was conducted in the research farm of faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad during the 2007-2008 growing season. the experiment was performed as factorial based...

in order to study radiation use efficiency and radiation interception in intercropping of herb sweet basil and common bean, an experiment was conducted at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran for the growing season of 2008. treatments were 1) sole crop of bean , 2) sole crop of sweet basil, 3) strip intercropping of bean and sweet basil (four rows bean and two...

background and objectivesintercropping or simultaneous growing of two or more crops on the same piece of land has the potential of enhanced ecosystem productivity. in a cereal-legume intercropping system, an increase in cereal and a decrease in legume intercrop yield is reported. several indices such as land equivalent ratio (ler), relative crowding coefficient (k), competitive ratio (cr), aggr...

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...

in order to study yield and yield components in intercropping bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.) and sweet basil (ocimum basilicum l.) and evaluating effect of intercropping on weed control, a field experiment was conducted at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad during growing season of 2008. treatments: included 1- sole crop of bean 2- sole crop of sweet basil 3- strip ...

Intercropping is the simultaneous cultivation of more than one crop species on the same piece of land and is regarded as the practical application of basic ecological principles such as diversity, competition and facilitation. Field experiments were carried out on a sandy loam soil and a sandy soil in Denmark over three consecutive cropping seasons including dual grain legume (pea, faba bean an...

intercropping may be helpful manner to increase interception and utilization. the aim of this study was to compare radiation use efficiency and radiation interception in intercropping with sole cropping. an experiment was conducted at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad in the growing season of the year 2008. the experimental treatments were: 1- sole crop of bean 2...
