It has been proved that intercropping is a suitable approach for vegetable growing providing a high degree of sustainability. Due to its advantages this system reduces the presence of weeds, diseases and pests.Research was carried out in the experimental field of V. Adamachi farm from USAMV Iași. The biological material consist in three vegetable species: celery, cherry tomatoes and cauliflower and a flower, French marigold, cultivated in two intercropping systems, celery + cherry tomato + French marigold and celery + cauliflower. Biometric evaluations of celery plants were done on the edible part, length and width of the stalk and leaf, and number of leafs per plant.The obtained results showed in the two intercropping systems that celery plants were well developed, with a rich rosette and intense green colour of leaves. Celery, intercropped with cauliflower has a length and number of stalks slightly higher than the other system.The aim of this study is to analyze the agronomic and ornamental performances of the intercrop systems of celery with cauliflower and celery with tomatoes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
