Impact of residue addition on soil nitrogen dynamics in intercrop and sole crop agroecosystems

Geoderma, 2017
Abstract Soil nitrogen (N) is one of the most important nutrients for plant productivity and microbial activity in terrestrial ecosystems. However, soil N is also readily affected by land management practices, influencing N 2 O emissions. This study assessed N dynamics in soil from different crop systems including a 1:2 (one row of maize and two rows

The comparison of nitrogen use and leaching in sole cropped versus intercropped pea and barley

Nutrient Cycling in Agroecosystems, 2003
The effect of sole and intercropping of field pea (Pisum sativum L.) and spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and of crop residue management on crop yield, NO3- leaching and N balance in the cropping system was tested in a 2-year lysimeter experiment on a temperate sandy loam soil.

Effects of Delayed Hand Weeding on Sole-crop Cassava in Sierra Leone

Experimental Agriculture, 1978
SUMMARYThe effects of delayed hand weed control at 30-, 45-, 60-, 90-day intervals, and no weeding, on sole-crop cassava, was studied in two experiments on the upland soils of Sierra Leone. Timing and frequency of weeding were important in influencing root number and root yield, and delayed weed control depressed both attributes. The critical period of

Changes in Soil Physical Properties After Intercropping as Against Sole Cropping

Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science, 1989
AbstractTwo field trials under irrigated conditions were conducted in red sandy loam soils of Palathurai series (Typic Haplustalf) at Coimbatore to evaluate the changes in physical properties when intercropping was introduced to a pure crop system. The results of the first crop indicated that intercropping of sorghum (CSH 5)‐lab lab (CO 9) system was ...

The role of intercropping and sole cropping across environments of contrasting level of productivity in Ethiopia

2016
Intercropping is a common practice in traditionally low productivity smallholder farming across Africa. However, as technological improvements and farmers’ investments increase the level of crop productivity, whether intercropping or sole cropping systems remain the best option, is not known.
