BC was … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 21 Jun 2010 · 9,737 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvaluation of Hairy Vetch (Vicia villosa Roth) in Pure and Mixed Cropping with Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) to Determine the Best Combination of Legume and Cereal for Forage ProductionSeyedeh, Davood Habibi, Ali Kashani et al.Problem statement: Mixed cereal-legume cropping can supply valuable forage in dry areas, as well as improving soil characteristics to approach sustainable farming systems in these regions. Approach: In order to comprise quality and quantity of produced forage and to determine the best planting ratio in a hairy vetch and barley mix cropping, a two year study was conducted during 2008 … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,102 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMicrobial Population In Decompsing Legume Litter Of Differing QualityM. B. Oyun, F. C. Akharayi, F. C. AdetuyiThe influence of litter quality on microbial population during decomposition of fresh pruning of Acacia auriculiformis; Gliricidia sepium and Acacia mixed with Gliricidia (50 : 50) is reported. Acacia (soluble C, 46.6%; N, 3.9%; Phenolic, 2.3%) was rated as low quality litter while Gliricidia (soluble C, 45.2%; N, 4.8%; Phenolic, 2.3%) was rated as high quality litter.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPoly-Species Phytocenoses for Ecosystem Restoration of Degraded Soil CoversAlmabek B. Nugmanov, Sergey V. Mamikhin, Khusain Kh. Valiev et al.Agroecological studies are based on the concept that, by understanding ecological processes, it is possible to manage agroecosystems for more sustainable production of more biomass and, thus, protection of natural resources. Many studies in the field of agroecology show that some farming methods can improve soil quality and restore agroecosystems by increasing plant biodiversity. Functional characteristics of plants for the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 22 Jul 2022 · 5,713 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Investigation of Biological Nitrogen Fixation in Critical Dryland PastureSyamsuddin Hasan, Budiman, Asmuddin Natsir et al.The aim of the study is to determine the production and growth of dwarf napier grass (Pennisetum purpureum cv.mott) integrated with siratro legumes (Macroptilium atropurpureum) contributing to the availability of preferred forage for ruminants on critical dryland. The study applied randomized block design consisted of 4 groups and 4 treatments; P0 consisted of 100% control Pennisetum purpureum cv.mott; P1 consisted … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 26 Jul 2019 · 7,937 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsWinter Forage Program Benefitted Small-Scale Goat ProducersUma Karki, Lila Bahadur KarkiSmall and limited resource farmers are raising goats on pastures in the southeast USA. Nevertheless, many of these farms do not have productive and quality pastures to support the nutrient requirements of their animals. Information on forages that are suitable to improve goat pastures and sustainably grazing those pastures with goats is still lacking. Study objectives were to (1) find … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 13 Jun 2017 · 8,350 accessesView PDFCite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBotany, Ecology and Diversity of Acacia Koa in the Hawaiian IslandsKazue Lee Ishihara, Maia Corpuz, Clifford Wayne Morden, Dulal BorthakurAcacia koa (koa) is a valuable leguminous timber-wood tree endemic to the Hawaiian Islands. Over the past century, conversion of some native forests for agriculture and ranching, uncontrolled spread of invasive plant species and outbreak of a deadly fungal wilt disease severely reduced A. koa forests. However, recently there has been a growing interest in re-establishing A. koa as an … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 21 Jun 2017 · 9,008 accessesView PDFCite
