  2. Cover crop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cover_crop

    The results show that planting more pounds per acre of rye increased the cover crop's production as well as decreased the amount of weeds. The same was true when scientists tested seeding rates on legumes and oats; a higher density of seeds planted per acre decreased the amount of weeds and increased the yield of legume and oat production.

  3. Sowing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sowing

    A seed rate of about 100 kg of seed per hectare (2 bushels per acre) is typical, though rates vary considerably depending on crop species, soil conditions, and farmer's preference. Excessive rates can cause the crop to lodge, while too thin a rate will result in poor utilisation of the land, competition with weeds and a reduction in the yield.

    Yields have had the seed used to plant the crop subtracted to give net yields. Average seed sown is estimated at: Wheat 2.5 bu/acre; Rye 2.5 bu/acre; Barley 3.5–4.30 bu/acre; Oats 2.5–4.0 bu/acre; Peas & beans 2.50–3.0 bu/acre. $ Average annual growth rate of agricultural output is per agricultural worker. Other authors offer different ...

  5. Rye - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rye

    Rye (Secale cereale) is a grass grown extensively as a grain, a cover crop and a forage crop. It is grown principally in an area from Eastern and Northern Europe into Russia. It is much more tolerant of cold weather and poor soil than other cereals, making it useful in those regions; its vigorous growth suppresses weeds and provides abundant forage for animals early in the yea

  6. Crop yield - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crop_yield

    Crop yield. In agriculture, the yield is a measurement of the amount of a crop grown, or product such as wool, meat or milk produced, per unit area of land. The seed ratio is another way of calculating yields. Innovations, such as the use of fertilizer, the creation of better farming tools, new methods of farming and improved crop varieties ...

  7. Stocking (forestry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stocking_(forestry)

    Stocking measures account for three things: the cover type and species mixture in the stand, the basal area per acre, and the number of trees per acre. [3] Stocking allows for comparing stands that may have diverse ecology. [4] Stocking is a major part of forest management, both in commercial applications and for restoration or preservation.

  9. Open-field system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-Field_System

    A four-ox-team plough, circa 1330. The ploughman is using a mouldboard plough to cut through the heavy soils. A team could plough about one acre (0.4 ha) per day. The typical planting scheme in a three-field system was that barley, oats, or legumes would be planted in one field in spring, wheat or rye in the second field in the fall and the third field would be left fallow.
