“Plant factories with artificial lighting” are a new type of facility that can produce high yield with high quality all year round in a controlled environment (e.g., lighting, temperature, CO 2 concentration, and nutrients) ( Kozai, 2013a ; Yamori
There have been reports of cover crops increasing the yield of the following crops ( Clark, 2007 ; Dabney et al., 2010 ; Delgado et al., 2007 ). However, there is a need for additional research on the potential benefits that cover crops may have
included genetic advances such as the development of high-yielding and disease-resistant cacao cultivars to increase yield production ( Edwin and Masters, 2005 ; Motamayor et al., 2013 ; Vaast and Somarriba, 2014 ). However, in field settings where cacao
and may be able to find a niche market for this high-value alternative crop. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the adaptation and yield potential of vegetable soybeans and to determine viability as an alternative crop in Mississippi
this species accounted for 30% of that consumed in the USSR in 1941 (Ulmann, 1951, as cited in van Beilen and Poirier, 2007 ); however, the species proved difficult to grow and yields were low. Rubber percentage and rubber yield in wild accessions
Genetic improvement for fruit yield remains a key breeding objective in raspberry breeding programs worldwide. High-yielding raspberry cultivars with good fruit quality characteristics and pest and disease resistance are most important in
marketable yields ( Armitage, 1991 ). Snapdragons ( Antirrhinum majus ) are a cool-season crop that florists have indicated interest in regularly sourcing from local growers ( Wolfe and McKissick, 2007 ). Although pricing varies by stem length grade and
after extraction. The percentage value of oil content was expressed on a dry weight basis. At the end of October, all fruits in the sampling trees were removed and weighed to calculate the olive yield of each tested tree (including sampling fruits). The
management technique might be to prune the plants to the ground each spring, perhaps most efficiently with a motorized or tractor-mounted sickle bar cutter. Well-established plants managed in this manner should produce good yields annually while maintaining
middles does not limit peach tree growth ( Belding et al., 2004 ; Liverani et al., 1992 ), but weed interference of summer annuals in the tree row will reduce yield ( Belding et al., 2004 ). Similarly, establishing sod or other plant species in the tree
