New ecological technologies of cereals and oilseed crops cultivation in mixtures

Abstract

Oilseed crops - Camelina (Camelina Sativa) and barley combination sowing technologies in ecological agriculture are investigated in this article in order to achieve minimal amount of weeds and maximal yield of barley and Camelina which would be trustworthy in economical sense. It was established that most effective Camelina and barley combination sowing method is row-band type with 12 and 24 cm inter-rows. Diseases occurrence on cereals in mixtures was lower than in pure sowing. The mixtures yield in the same or higher level than the pure sown species. Presented results show that cereals and Camelina growing in mixtures could be useful in ecological systems
