| The agronomic performance, biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) ability and self-establishment potential of seven species of annual self-reseeding legumes were investigated in Apulia region, Italy. For the first cropping cycle (2005-2006) preliminary results showed that Trifolium spp. performed better than Medicago spp. Among the seven species, five were more suitable to the site’s conditions. T. angustifolium and M. polymorpha gave the best results. T. angustifolium fixed 131.7 kg ha-1 year of nitrogen (15N isotope dilution method), produced 1976 kg ha-1 of seeds and 8.7 t ha-1 of dry matter (DM). M. radiata and M. rigidula were the less performing. During the second cropping cycle (2006-2007) results showed that Trifolium spp. self-established better than... |

| A four year experiment is being carried out, at Ege University Department of Horticulture, in which three different pre-crops are tested under an organic management system as compared to fallow. The aim of the experiment is to identify the most suitable rotation program for organic vegetable production in Turkey. Vicia sativa (common vetch), Brassica oleracea var. italica (broccoli), Vicia faba ‘Sevilla’ (faba bean) and fallow are tested as preceding (winter) crops. During the experiment carried out between 2007 and 2009, the main crops were tomato (2007), zucchini (2008) and pepper (2009). Broccoli represented the farmers’ choice as a winter vegetable. Vetch (incorporated) and faba bean (partially harvested and incorporated) were selected as legumes well... |

| Vegetables are among the main ingredients of the Mediterranean cuisine and thus enlarging organic local markets increase their demand for a diversity of vegetables. Long-term rotations based mainly on vegetables are rather rare in the Mediterranean countries. A four year experiment was carried out between 2006 and 2010 at Ege University Department of Horticulture in cooperation with CIHEAM Mediterranean Institute of Bari. And two different pre-crops, broccoli and vetch were tested under an organic management system as compared to fallow during the autumn-winter period. The summer main crops were rotated between solanaceous and cucurbitaceous vegetables as tomato (2007), zucchini (2008) pepper (2009) and eggplant (2010). The experiment aimed at recommending... |

| Biological Nitrogen fixation (BNF) should be the most important means for N supply in organic agriculture. This study aimed at assessing the effect of fifteen legume cultivars on subsequent crops in three consecutive growing seasons to identify the most efficient and suitable ones as building crops in rotation programs under Mediterranean environment. T. subterraneum cv. York and T. glanduliferum cv. Prima, induced the best effects on wheat, particularly on total biomass, number of grains, dry matter production and increased yield by 670% and 567% respectively more than the control. |

| Ekim nöbeti uygulamaları kendisinden sonra yetiştirilen bitkiler üzerinde, zararlı ve hastalık yönetiminden, besin maddelerinin etkin olarak kullanımına kadar uzanan geniş yelpazede birçok olumlu etkiye neden olmaktadır. Organik tarımda ise ekim nöbeti uygulamaları bu tarım şeklinin “toprak verimliliğinin sağlanması” açısından temel uygulamalardan biridir. Çalışma, yetiştiricilik açısından farklı iki ön uygulamanın, bazı yazlık sebze türlerindeki verim ve kalite değişimlerine etkisinin belirlenmesi amacıyla, Ege Üniversitesi Ziraat Fakültesi Bahçe Bitkileri Bölümü organik tarım deneme alanlarında 2006 -2009 yılları arasında süren 3 yıllık bir yetiştirme periyodunda, 4 tekerrürlü olarak, tesadüf blokları deneme desenine göre yürütülmüştür. Bu kapsamda,... |

| Soil fertility management is a critical issue in organic agriculture, and nitrogen supply is the most important aspect, especially in the Mediterranean region. Biological nitrogen fixation by legumes seems to be a successful strategy in that nitrogen-fixing legumes can provide most of the nitrogen used in Mediterranean agriculture in a form not readily leached. According to Pimentel et al., 1992, in the U.S., an estimated $50 billion worth of nitrogen is provided by biological N fixation. Thus, the inputs of nitrogen into Mediterranean agricultural systems by biological fixation in nodulated legumes are fundamental to obtain sustainable and economic production. This study aimed at evaluating the impact of annual self-reseeding legumes on subsequent crops... |
