Key examples are systems combining no-till seeding, crop-rotations including legumes, plus maintenance of continuous crop-residue cover to the soil.From theCambridge English Corpus
But this did not change the relative profitability of the treatments: sole maize fertilized and unfertilized remained more profitable than the respectivelegumeintercrops.From theCambridge English Corpus
Very large increases (well over 100 %) in the price of legumes would be required to makelegume-maize intercrops more profitable than sole maize.From theCambridge English Corpus
For mixed grass+legumesilages, the case was more complex, since the value of the silage is not independent of its composition.From theCambridge English Corpus
Output taxes consisted of the tithes (osur) applying primarily to grains, legumes, and fibers.From theCambridge English Corpus
The intercropped legumes grew moderately well most years.From theCambridge English Corpus

Absent from private sector research, not surprisingly, are many crops cultivated by the world's poor, including small-grain cereals, tubers and legumes.From theCambridge English Corpus
This paper reports the results of on-farm testing of grass+legumepastures assessed in terms of milk production in dual-purpose systems.From theCambridge English Corpus
However, other experiments have indicated the beneficial effects of perennial legumes and no-till agriculture on soil nitrogen.From theCambridge English Corpus
The present study pointed to the critical role of legumes, especially perennial alfalfa, for increasing the energy efficiency of a cropping system.From theCambridge English Corpus
It is concluded that grass+legumemixtures increased milk yields on farms.From theCambridge English Corpus
Legume-based cropping systems have reduced carbon and nitrogen losses.From theCambridge English Corpus
With the exception of phosphorus, treatment effects onlegumegrowth were marginal.From theCambridge English Corpus
