introduction weed infestation causes an extremely reduction of crops yield. on the other hand, increasing the diversity of crops in agro-ecosystems will change the biomass distribution of weeds community, thereby reducing the number and density of different weed species. weed management in the past few decades has been in conflict with ecological principles and sustainability of the production ...

Abstract Hospital wastewaters are produced in large volumes Pakistan (?362–745 L/bed.day) and discharged without proper treatment. They widely used by farmers for crop irrigation induce a phytotoxic effect on plant growth. The study was conducted to evaluate the of untreated treated hospital wastewater seed germination fodder Trifolium alexandrinum (Berseem clover) food Solanum lycopersicum (to...

in order to study the effects of different sowing dates by some of companion crops on the weeds control, morphological traits and yield of corn sc 504, a field experiment was carried out of research field at tabriz university during 2010 growing season. treatments were arranged in a factorial experiment using randomized complete blocks design with three replicatins. factors was include four lev...

corn–soybean cropping systems predominate. The effect of these cropping systems on indicators of soil quality Understanding long-term management effects on soil properties is only partially understood. Soil organic C has been is necessary to determine the relative sustainability of cropping systems. Soil physical, chemical, and biological properties were measured shown to increase in monocultur...

to compare the quantity and quality of forge production in intercropping systems with maize, pinto bean and pumpkin, an experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted at faculty of agricultural science, university of guilan, during 2012 growing season. the treatments consisted of maize, pinto bean and naked pumpkin sole cropping, maize – pinto bean an...

to evaluate the yield and quality of barley (hordeum vulgare)–vetch (vicia desycarpa) intercropping, a series of experiments were conducted at the experimental field of the college of agriculture, university of tehran, in karaj (iran) from 2003 to 2005. the ex-periments were arranged in a randomized complete block with a split plot design and four replications. three levels (0, 45 and 90 kg n h...
