From sole crops to strip cropping: Decision rules of frontrunner farmers in The Netherlands. [PDF]
Strip cropping, where several crops are grown in adjacent long and narrow multi-row strips, is an innovation niche that challenges monocropping by offering a greater range of ecosystem services, including higher biodiversity and aesthetic value at similar yield.

Intercropping enhances productivity and maintains the most soil fertility properties relative to sole cropping. [PDF]
Yield and nutrient acquisition advantages are frequently found in intercropping systems. However, there are few published reports on soil fertility in intercropping relative to monocultures. A field experiment was therefore established in 2009 in Gansu province, northwest China.

Yield and Quality of Wheat and Soybean in Sole‐ and Double‐Cropping
In temperate environments, the wheat–soybean [Triticum aestivum L.–Glycine max (L.) Merr.] double‐crop system often improves the capture and use efficiency of radiation and water in relation to single crops. Here we assessed the yield and quality of wheat and soybean in relay and sequential double‐crops as compared with control sole‐crops in the ...

WEED COMPETITION WITH SOYBEAN IN NO-TILLAGE AGROFORESTRY AND SOLE-CROP SYSTEMS IN SUBTROPICAL BRAZIL [PDF]
Weed competition on soybean (Glycine max) growth and yield was expected to be different when managed in an agroforestry system as compared with sole-cropping without trees.

Nitrogen Leaching in Intensive Cropping Systems in Tam Duong District, Red River Delta of Vietnam [PDF]
The environmental and economic consequences of nitrogen (N) lost in rice-based systems in Vietnam is important but has not been extensively studied. The objective of this study was to quantify the amount of N lost in major cropping systems in the Red ...
