Maximizing agro-bioeconomic benefits in intercropped systems of radish and lett...
Lino,Francisca K. K. da S.; Bezerra Neto,Francisco; Santos,Elizangela C. dos; Lima,Jailma S. S. de; Chaves,Aridênia P.; Rodrigues,Gardênia S. de O.ABSTRACT Radish and lettuce are two crop vegetables that can be intercropped because they are companion cultures that complement each other. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate agro-bioeconomic returns arising from radish-lettuce intercropping in different equitable amounts of hairy woodrose (Merremia aegyptia) and roostertree (Calotropis procera) biomass at different population densities of lettuce, in the semi...
Sustainability of carrot-cowpea intercropping systems through optimization of g...
Silva,Josimar Nogueora da; Bezerra Neto,Francisco; Lima,Jailma Suerda Silva de; Chaves,Aridênia Peixoto; Nunes,Renato Leandro CostaABSTRACT: One of the biggest challenges in intercropping of two or more crops is to maintain their productivity as that of their sole counterparts. In order to obtain sustainable intercropping systems in a semi-arid environment, this study evaluated the agro-economic advantage and sustainability of intercropped systems of carrot and cowpea, optimizing the green manuring and spatial arrangements. Experiments wer...
Beet-arugula intercropping under green manuring and planting density induce to ...
Lino,Vitor AS; Bezerra Neto,Francisco; Lima,Jailma SS; Santos,Elizangela C; Nunes,Renato LC; Guerra,Natan M; Lino,Francisca Karla KS; Sá,Jolinda MABSTRACT One of the biggest challenges in the intercropping system of two crops is to obtain the optimal dose of green manure and the adequate population density of the crops. So, the objective of this work was to evaluate the performance of beet and arugula intercropping, influenced by green manuring with Merremia aegyptia and Calotropis procera and arugula population densities in two cultivation years, in sem...
Nitrogen fertilization on the agro-economic performance of sesame in the Brazil...
Santos,Manoel Galdino dos; Souza,Ênio Gomes Flôr; Souza,Leonardo Vieira de; Pereira,Luiz Aurelio Freitas; Souza,Almir Rogerio Evangelista deAbstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the agro-economic performance of sesame (Sesamum indicum) under nitrogen fertigation in the semiarid region of Northeastern Brazil. The experimental design was randomized complete blocks with four replicates, and the treatments were arranged in a split-plot, where the plots were assigned five N rates (0, 30, 60, 90, and 120 kg ha-1) and the sub-plots were rep...
Agro-economic efficiency of immature cowpea-radish intercropping systems in sem...
Azevedo,Iara Beatriz Silva; Bezerra Neto,Francisco; Lima,Jailma Suerda Silva de; Chaves,Aridênia Peixoto; Silva,Josimar Nogueora daAbstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the agro-economic efficiency of immature cowpea-radish intercropping systems in a semiarid environment in Brazil. The experiments were carried out in two cropping seasons, in a randomized complete block design with four replicates. The treatments consisted of a 4x2 factorial arrangement for the combination of four cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) cultivars (BRS Tum...
Cowpea and beet intercropping agro-economic dynamics under spatial arrangement ...
Chaves,Aridênia P; Bezerra Neto,Francisco; Lima,Jailma SS; Silva,Josimar N; Nunes,Renato LC; Barros Júnior,Aurélio P; Lima,Grace KL; Santos,Elizangela CABSTRACT The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of planting spatial arrangements between the cowpea and beet crops in intercropping and of cowpea population densities on the crop’s productivity and in the agro-economic efficiency of the association at two growing seasons. The experimental design was of randomised blocks with the treatments arranged in a 4 x 3 factorial scheme, in four replication...
Production efficiency in cultivar combinations of beet and cowpea
Ribeiro,Jeisy RS; Bezerra Neto,Francisco; Lima,Jailma SS; Chaves,Aridênia P; Silva,Josimar N; Santos,Elizangela C; Nunes,Renato LCABSTRACT For the simultaneous achievement of productivity in beet and cowpea associations, it is necessary to take into consideration the choice of cultivar combinations that offer a response in terms of production, product quality and efficiency of the intercropping. Thus, the objective of this work was to evaluate the viability of production of beet cultivars combinations with cowpea cultivars in two cropping...
Agronomic and economic feasibility indicators for cowpea-vegetable under green ...
Silva,Josimar Nogueora da; Bezerra Neto,Francisco; Lima,Jailma Suerda Silva de; Barros Júnior,Aurélio Paes; Nunes,Renato Leandro CostaABSTRACT Two experiments were conducted in different areas of the Rafael Fernandes Experimental Farm, located in Lagoinha district, 20 km from Mossoró municipality (RN), in the period from June to September of the years of 2015 and 2016 with the objective of evaluating and estimating agronomic and economic feasibility indicators of cowpea-vegetable as a function of amounts of hairy woodrose (Merremia aegyptia (...
Production and benefits in carrot and vegetable cowpea associations under green...
Silva,Josimar Nogueora da; Bezerra Neto,Francisco; Lima,Jailma Suerda Silva de; Santos,Elizangela Cabral dos; Nunes,Renato Leandro CostaABSTRACT The use of a cropping system that provides producers with better land use, higher productivity per unit area, greater diversification in production, and, consequently, agro-economic advantages, is the choice of many vegetable producers. To meet the demands of these producers, experiments were conducted under field conditions in a semi-arid environment to evaluate the production and agro-economic benefi...
Economic nitrogen rate for fertigation of green corn crop in the Brazilian semi...
Souza,Ênio Gomes Flôr; Cruz,Ellen Abreu da; França,Rafaela Felix da; Silva,José Madson da; Barros Júnior,Aurélio Paes; Bezerra Neto,FranciscoAbstract: The objective of this work was to determine the nitrogen rate for fertigation associated with the maximum productivity of green corn (Zea mays) with a lower production cost, in two harvest seasons in the Brazilian semiarid region. The experimental design was a randomized complete block with four replicates, and the treatments consisted of four N rates (0, 80, 160, and 240 kg ha-1) in form of urea, app...
