The feasibility of inter-cropping pea with canola, mustard, and barley
An inter-cropping trial was conducted in the summer of 1988 to compare pea inter-crops with Tobin and Westar canola, yellow mustard, and barley. At two sites, a number of different pea varieties were inter-cropped with ...
Evaluation of the effectiveness of Rhizobium leguminosarum strains for pea under field conditions
One hundred and eight isolates of Rhizobium leguminosarum were screened for effectiveness for pea under controlled environments. Eight superior strains plus the commercially available pea inoculants, Nitragin 'C', Grip-Inotec, ...
Nitrogen, phosphorus, and rhizobial strain responses of lentil
Three field experiments were set out in 1987 to test the effect of nitrogen fertilizer, phosphorus fertilizer, and rhizobial strain on lentil yields and N2 fixation. The following treatments were laid out in a split-split-plot ...
Leaching and recovery of 15N in dryland and irrigated cropping systems
Laird-lentil and Neepawa-wheat were grown under irrigation in 1987 at the experimental Irrigation Farm at Outlook under three levels of N: 10, 50, and 100 kg of NH4NO3, double labelled with 15N. A similar experiment was ...
Growth and water use of irrigated and dryland lentils and wheat
Lentils are becoming an increasingly more important crop in Saskatchewan with over 230,000 ha planted in 1987. A large part of this acreage was in the Brown Soil Zone. To date lentil water relations and adaptation to water ...
Comparison of available soil moisture and nitrogen following wheat and lentil
Lentil is generally grown in rotation with cereals, and may benefit the succeeding crop by using less moisture or by increasing the amount of available N. Soil moisture and N depletion was measured for lentil and wheat at ...
