The mixed planting method of the sweet basil, oilseed rape and corn has the advantages that by means of land interplanting of the sweet basil, oilseed rape and corn, land can be fully utilized, crop groups can be reasonably arranged according to the planting and growing seasons, fertility of the land is sufficient, and high yield and high efficiency are achieved; the yield-increase effect of dominance in border row is fully exerted, the land is fertilized through the land, the yields of crops are increased, land fertility is improved, and the method is beneficial for sustainable yield increase.

The invention discloses an improvement method for organic maturation of yellow mud fields. For an early season rice field, the improvement method includes the steps: 1), planting astragalus sinicus and applying inorganic fertilizer; 2), applying nitrogen fertilizer at a stage when astragalus sinicus sends forth a first true leaf, wherein scalar quantity of the nitrogen fertilizer is 6.9-10.35 kilograms per hectare; 3), reapplying the nitrogen fertilizer at a stage when astragalus sinicus grows vigorously, wherein scalar quantity of the nitrogen fertilizer is 17.25-34.5 kilograms per hectare; 4), taking astragalus sinicus as green manure to be returned to the field, and applying chemical fertilizer. For double cropping rice, the improvement method includes 1), directly returning straw of early season rice into field in situ, or applying livestock and poultry manure for soil maturation; 2), additionally applying nitrogen fertilizer, and adjusting C/N ratio of the straw; 3), applying rotten organic fertilizer or mushroom residue before seeding middle-season rice or late-season rice; 4), performing light dewatering and ventilating after transplanting of the middle-season rice or the late-season rice, and re-watering. By the improvement method, soil structure is improved, soil volume weight is lowered, soil cation exchange quantity is increased, community structure of soil microorganisms and soil enzyme activity are affected.

The invention discloses a method for producing aquatic vegetables and a green manure during crop rotation of water mimosa and paddy rice. With the method, paddy rice and water mimosa are planted according to a certain ratio during a double-cropping rice period. Water mimosa can grow together with paddy rice in a paddy environment. Rhizobium of the water mimosa on the part on the surface of the paddy can fix nitrogen, such that soil nitrogen content can be increased. After the harvesting of early-season rice, the edible parts of water mimosa are harvested, and all the non-edible parts are turned back to the field as green manure; after the harvesting of late-season rice, winter cropping of water mimosa is carried out; about 1 month before early-season rice planting in the next year, the edible parts of the winter-cropping water mimosa are harvested, and all the non-edible parts are turned back to the field as green manure. With the paddy rice and water mimosa crop rotation method, soil fertility can be maintained on a basis of increasing paddy rice yield. Also, the use of chemical fertilizer nitrogen can be reduced, such that non-point source pollution caused by paddy rice production can be retarded.

A new and distinct late season variety of apple tree, named `Swedes Fuji` originating from a mutation of the standard Fuji. This new cultivar displays a brilliant red blush uniform coloration which extends over the entire surface of the apple. The cultivar is generally similar to the parent with the exception of: 1) fruit color and 2) it is easier to harvest because it has a more uniform rate of coloration throughout the entire tree when the fruit is maturing in late fall.

According to the method, the highest temperature of the livestock and poultry house is controlled, meanwhile, the stability of temperature change in the house is guaranteed, cold stress of livestock and poultry near the wet curtain is avoided, the method has the characteristics of parameter automation and intelligent adjustment, the wet curtain temperature control effect is accurate enough, the expected effect can be achieved, and it is guaranteed that the wet curtains play the same cooling effect in the morning, noon and evening every day and in early summers and late seasons.

The invention discloses a method of improving the lodging resistance of a high-quality rice variety Xiangyaxiangzhan. The method comprises steps: (1) the target yield of Xiangyaxiangzhan is determined; (2) the land capacity yield is determined; (3) the reasonable total amount of nitrogen application is calculated, wherein the total nitrogen application amount calculation method is: the total nitrogen application amount (kg/mu)= [the target yield per mu (kg) - the land capacity yield per mu (kg)]*R/100, R is a nitrogen application constant and refers to the nitrogen application amount for producing per 100 kg of rice on the basis of the land capacity yield, R has different values for early and late seasons, R=7 in an early season and R=8 in a late season; and (4) the nitrogen application ratio of a base fertilizer to a tillering fertilizer to a panicle fertilizer is reasonably distributed. According to climatic conditions, soil fertility and variety characteristics, the reasonable nitrogen application amounts during the full-growth period of rice and the planning and management ratio of the nitrogen fertilizer in early, middle and late stages of the rice growth are designed by the method, the number of stems and tillers during the rice growth process develops steadily, the population structure is reasonable, the plant height is shorter, the internode is shortened, and the lodging resistance of the variety is thus improved.

‘KinnowLS’ is a mid- to late-season maturing (depending on climate) diploid mandarin that combines large-sized fruit of excellent quality and production with low seed content even in mixed plantings.
