Discussion on the Perspective of Wheat/Alfalfa Intercropping in the Wheat Conservation Tillage
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Agriculture and Veterinary Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 4
Abstract
Wheat and alfalfa intercropping is a kind of ideal model of modern ecological agriculture. As a perennial bird's-foot, Alfalfa has leguminous ability of nitrogen fixation. Use this character, we can intercropping it with wheat to fully utilize natural recourses of soil, water and radiation after harvestry of wheat. Through proper field management, we need control alfalfa’s growing to avoid adverse effect to normal wheat productivity. Together with refined processes for alfalfa and shed feeding for inland stockbreeding, the intercropping could realize the ideal of favorable eco-agricultural developing, enhance foodstuff producing efficiency and people’s living standard in wheat producing areas.
