Journal ArticleDOI
Pesticide Exposure, Safety Issues, and Risk Assessment Indicators
TL;DR: New tools or techniques with greater reliability than those already existing are needed to predict the potential hazards of pesticides and thus contribute to reduction of the adverse effects on human health and the environment.
Journal Article
Annual intercrops: an alternative pathway for sustainable agriculture.
TL;DR: Intercropping, the agricultural practice of cultivating two or more crops in the same space at the same time, is an old and commonly used cropping practice which aims to match efficiently crop demands to the available growth resources and labor as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Farmers’ Exposure to Pesticides: Toxicity Types and Ways of Prevention
TL;DR: Farmers’ exposure to pesticides can be reduced through less use of pesticides and through the correct use of the appropriate type of personal protective equipment in all stages of pesticide handling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dry matter yield, nitrogen content, and competition in pea―cereal intercropping systems
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of intercrops of pea (Pisum arvense L.), a popular legume used in intercropping systems with winter cereals for forage and silage production, with wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), rye (Secale cereale L.), and triticale (×-Triticosecale Wittmack) in two seeding ratios (60:40 and 80:20) were compared with monocrops of Pea and cereals, for two growing seasons.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current status and recent developments in biopesticide use
TL;DR: Nanoformulations and microencapsulation technologies can improve the stability and residual action of biopesticide products, and this could increase their field use.
