Suitability of Hybrid and Landrace Maize Plants Within Conventional and Organic-Polyculture Maize Agroecosystems for Hosting Parasitic Wasps

Annals of the Entomological Society of America, 2021
Polycultures and conventional monoculture have different effects on insect pests and natural enemies. Little is known about the parasitoid response to landrace and hybrid plants damaged by insect pests within organic-polyculture agroecosystems vs ...

Assisting Polyculture Farming in Africa

2021 IEEE AFRICON, 2021
AlphaGarden is a polyculture garden tended by a robot using a learned control policy tuned with simulation, sensor and camera data. AlphaGarden aims to optimize yield and diversity while minimizing water use. This extended abstract considers how its seed planting algorithm could be used by African farmers.

Simulating Polyculture Farming to Tune Automation Policies for Plant Diversity and Precision Irrigation

2020 IEEE 16th International Conference on Automation Science and Engineering (CASE), 2020
Polyculture farming, where multiple crop species are grown simultaneously, has potential to reduce pesticide and water usage, while improving the utilization of soil nutrients. However, it is much harder to automate than monoculture.

Integrated multitrophic polycultures

2022
AbstractIntegrated multitrophic polycultures represent an ecologically more sustainable form of aquaculture than monocultures; their economic feasibility relies on proper incentivization by policy makers. Polyculture, combined with a shift to culturing omnivores and herbivores instead of carnivores, reduces the unsustainable use of fish meal and fish ...

A novel polyculture growth model of native microalgal communities to estimate biomass productivity for biofuel production

Biotechnology progress (Print), 2021
Native polyculture microalgae is a promising scheme to produce microalgal biomass as biofuel feedstock in an open raceway pond. However, predicting biomass productivity of native polycultures microalgae is incredibly complicated.

Constraints to polyculture

Aquacultural Engineering, 1986
Abstract Patterns of rearing several compatible aquatic food species together (polyculture) in fresh, brackish and salt water are discussed. Emphasis is on technologies that seize on compatibilities of the organisms for spatial and/or temporal cohabitation and on adaptation to different markets.

Periphyton-based pond polyculture.

2005
AbstractA brief history of fish polyculture system and pond polyculture (in particular) as an age-old practice in Asia is provided. A list of suitable fish species for polyculture is also given. The benefits of traditional polyculture can also be enjoyed in periphyton-based aquaculture systems.
