The feasibility of inter-cropping pea with canola, mustard, and barley
(1989-02-16)
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
(1989-02-16)
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, ...
Factors affecting spatial variation in two crop rotations
(1999-02-25)
An experiment was initiated at two 4-ha sites with hummocky to undulating terrain, to
examine the spatial variation rotation benefits of wheat grown after pea compared to wheat grown after wheat. In the second year of the ...
Regional-scale quantification of nitrous oxide emission
(1996-02-22)
The increasing atmospheric N2O concentration and the imbalance in the budget of its global sources and sinks create the need for detailed investigations on N2O emissions at scales relevant to atmospheric chemistry. This ...
The development of management units for site-specific farming
(1996-02-22)
Image analysis is a valuable tool that can be used to delineate management units for Site-Specific farming applications. Soil landscapes are often highly variable in terms of their productive potential. Because of the ...
Saskatchewan inoculants for chickpea and bean
(1996-02-22)
A collaborative research study between the University of Saskatchewan, the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool, MicroBio Rhizogen Corp. and Westco Fertilizers Ltd. was initiated to identify and develop effective rhizobial inoculants ...
Nitrogen, phosphorus, and rhizobial strain responses of lentil
(1988-02-19)
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 ...
Landscape- and micro-scale variability of nitrogen fixation by chickpea
(1997-02-20)
A landscape-scale study was conducted near Biggar, SK, to estimate N2 fixation by chickpea (Cicer arietinum) using the natural 15N abundance method. The spatial variability of N2 fixation was investigated at both the ...
