intercropping is considered for increasing and stability of yield in per unit. in order to evaluating the effect of corn/soybean intercrop in different planting dates, a study was carried out in agricultural sciences and natural resources, university of sari, faculty of agriculture during 2005-2006. the experiment was a split plot design based on randomized complete block design with four repli...

The present study was aimed at assessing the ingestive behavior of ¾ Zebu × Holstein heifers confined to different levels of substitution of sorghum silage by marandu grass silage. Twenty heifers were used with initial average weight of 346.25 kg, divided into completely randomized experimental design with 5 repetitions and the following treatments: treatment 1) roughage fraction of the diet co...

Effects of tillage and crop rotation on nematode densities in tropical corn (Zea mays cv. Pioneer X304C) were examined in a factorial experiment with two rotation crops and two tillage practices (no-till vs. conventional-till), conducted in each of three seasons (1990-1992) in north Florida. The rotation treatments consisted of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor cv. DeKalb BR64) or soybean (Glycine max) ...

Densities of plant-parasitic nematodes were compared on six crops grown for forage during the summer of 1991 at seven sites in north central Florida. The cropping treatments were 'Howard' soybean (Glycine max), 'Deltapine 105' soybean, velvetbean (Mucuna deeringiana), 'California Blackeye #5' cowpea (Vigna unguiculata), 'Pioneer 3098' tropical corn (Zea mays), and 'Asgrow Chaparral' sorghum (So...

Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate the productive and structural characteristics Paiaguas palisadegrass established in monoculture intercropped with agricultural crops 2018 2019. evaluated treatments were: (PP) monoculture, PP maize, sorghum, soybean. experimental design used a randomized block, 4 replications (plots 160 m²). Sward height, tiller density, dry mass production, ...

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...

Allelochemicals from sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] residues may inhibit the emergence and growth of other crops. We examined effects two landraces, IS9456, a high sorgoleone producer, IS22320, zero producer. Residues were applied at 7.2 g, 14.4 g 21.6 kg-1 soil. Emergence maize (Zea mays L.), wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) soybean [Glycine max Merr.] tested in three glasshouse pot experim...

Global warming has resulted in increasingly frequent and severe drought and/or precipitation events. Severe drought limits crop water availability and impacts agricultural productivity and socioeconomic development. To quantify drought-induced yield loss during the main crop stages in Liaoning province, China, aspects of drought episodes (magnitude, duration, and frequency) were investigated du...
