More dire, the state's crop of field corn -- not served on the table, but used to make starch, corn oil and dog food, among other products -- may fall by as much as 30percentthis yearar.
While Western governments have long worried that its self-declared leaders, many of whom operate from Turkey, cannot jell into a coherent movement with unifying leaders, the fighting across the country has been producing a crop of field commanders who stand to assume just these roles.
Our meta-analyses indicate that, for the examined functional groups of non-target invertebrates, laboratory studies have, on average, been accurate or conservative in predicting effects of Bt crops on field abundance of trophic guilds.
Ghost's high priest noted that "a lot of our songs are about sensuality.... Do you know about the birds and the bees?" During "Jigolo Har Megiddo," fans clapped a hard, excited beat as he sang: "I am the one who comes richly endowed / Harvesting crops of fields that others have plowed / I am the one, lascivious".
Non-crop vegetation of field margins provides resources for natural enemies of crop herbivores.
But, although I use photographs in the studio, I don't think it's appropriate to look at the work in ways derived from our experience of photography – cropping, depth of field, focus etc.
We conclude that agri-environmental schemes should place more emphasis on facilitating the value of the cropped area of fields as a foraging and nesting habitat.
In their study, they mapped land use in broad categories of field crops, orchards, and vineyards, as opposed to determining specific crop types as we did.
Here, we analysed land-use intensity of annual crop fields of 30 farms in northern Germany that were located in 15 landscapes differing in structural complexity ranging from <15% to >65% non-crop habitats.
In order to compute the distances of livestock animal locations from human settlements, we first extracted the settlement boundaries inclusive of crop field boundaries from Google Earth.
Much has been accomplished in developing disease-resistant varieties of field crops, vegetables, fruits, turf grasses, and ornamentals.
