ABSTRACT Intercropping can enable sustainable intensification. In Africa, smallholder farmers rely on Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) as a staple food. Nevertheless, the performance of cassava intercropping emerges from management choices such as legume species selection, planting density, sowing time, and nitrogen (N) fertilisation as well as soil ...

Dinitrogen fixation and residue nitrogen of different managed legumes and nitrogen uptake of subsequent winter wheat [N2-Fixierung und residualer Stickstoff verschiedener Futterleguminosen sowie N-Aufnahme der Folgefrucht Winterweizen.] [PDF]
Fixed nitrogen accumulated by legumes is the main nitrogen source for organic farming systems. Knowledge about the amount of fixed nitrogen, its pathways into forage yield, crop residues, soil-N and yield formation of the following crop is needed for ...

Abstract Crown rust (CR), caused by Puccinia coronata f. sp. avenae, is a major constraint to oat (Avena sativa L.) production in the southern United States. We dissected the genetic architecture of CR resistance and assessed genomic prediction in 234 winter and facultative oat lines adapted to the southern United States.

Continuous grazing in comparison to cutting management on an organic meadow in the eastern Alps [PDF]
Continuous grazing is an appropriate pasture system for dairy cows in low input milk production systems like organic farming. Grazing increases for economic reasons and is also caused by regulations in organic farming.

ABSTRACT Multigenerational stress exposure induces stress memory in plants, influencing resource allocation, defence mechanisms, and productivity. Weed competition imposes both resource‐based (abiotic) and allelopathic (biotic) stress, engaging overlapping hormonal pathways.

Legume intercropping in organic timothy seed crops
Abstract Timothy (Phleum pratense L.) is a perennial grass widely grown for livestock feed in temperate regions of the world. It is one of the primary forage grasses grown for seed in Scandinavia due to good cold tolerance and high‐quality feed characteristics.

Abstract Several nitrogen rate recommendation methods have been developed to help farmers fertilize close to the economic optimum N rate (EONR). The objectives of this study were to (i) evaluate a dynamic method (Adapt‐N) for N rate recommendations for maize (Zea mays L.) in Brazil relative to EONRs determined specifically for each trial and (ii ...

Fungal alkaloid occurrence during seedling establishment and early growth in Lolium perenne seedlings infected with Epichloë festucae var. lolii and the influence of adult Argentine stem weevil (Listronotus bonariensis) feeding on alkaloid concentrations : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science (MSc) in Agriculture Science at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Fungal endophytes of the genus Epichloë often form stable, symbiotic, and mutualistic relationships with grasses of the Pooideae, including perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.).
