Mulberry crop bordered with castor recorded the highest incidence of parasitoids and predators, particularly the native parasitoids of the lepidopteran insects infesting mulberry.
GROWING HEMP If you've ever talked to a hemp evangelist, you know belief in the crop borders on the religious.
Commercial uses: Farmers could send out a flock of drones to monitor crops; border control would be less labor intensive; and companies could fly the robo-critters over cubicles to make sure employees aren't slacking off.
Timing of sowing the inter-crops or border crops is a crucial factor in sustaining the synchrony between the parasitoids and predators and insect pests in agro-ecosystems.
The present investigation was undertaken to study the diversity and abundance of parasitoids and predators in the sole cropped and intercropped, border cropped, and hedgerow cropped fields.
Although he is a proponent of serialist modernism, his stern language has mellowed somewhat in recent years but still sounds highly academic in light of the more frequently programmed Minimalists, neo-Romantics and in particular the current crop of border-hopping eclectics.
The results show that the simulated agroforestry systems (Taungya, alley cropping and border planting) could outperform a farm mosaic approach in terms of cumulative production and return.
The parasitoids and predators were collected from both the monocultured crops (guava, Psidium guajava L., mulberry, Morus alba L., and sapota, Manilkara zapota L). and from the fields where they were border cropped or intercropped with crop and non-crop flowering plants.
Holistically, the natural enemy fauna abundance and diversity were found to be greater in the intercropped, border cropped, and hedgerow cropped fields compared to the sole cropped fields.
In a total of 72 crop-field borders of Córdoba province, in spring, summer and autumn (2005-2006), we captured 1041 rodents of 8 different species.
The iPad version offers pretty much the same kind of features users are used to on the iPhone, including touch-up tools, filter effects like those found in Instagram, cropping and borders.
