“…Wheat grown on raised beds had a higher number of tillers due to optimal moisture availability in the root zone under raised beds (Meisner et al, 2005). However, Mascagni et al, (1995) concluded that wheat crop grown under raised beds produced minimum number of tillers as compared to the flat bed. The higher tillers m -2 (422) was recorded in plots where mulch was used.…”

“…Dry bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) yield also did not differ when grown on raised RESEARCH REPORTS bed or fl at ground (Russo, 1995). Agricultural crops such as wheat and fi eld corn also have shown no benefi t in seed yield or quality when planted on raised beds compared to fl at ground or no-bed planting (Fahong et al, 2003;Mascagni et al, 1995;Sharma and Saxena, 2002) unless fl ood irrigation was used to water the crop (Sharma et al, 2004).…”

Field trials were conducted to evaluate the effect of planting configurations (raised bed and no bed) and reservoir tillage on onion (Allium cepa) yield and grade when a cereal grass or cool-season broadleaf species was used as a companion crop. Total onion yield, the number of plants harvested, percentage of single centers, and cull-sized bulb yields did not differ among planting confi gurations. However, planting onion seed in raised beds with reservoir tillage resulted in more large-diameter bulbs compared to planting without a bed confi guration. Raised beds also had fewer small-sized bulbs than the non-bed confi guration. Companion crop infl uence on onion yield and grade varied among environments (location plus year). In general, canola (Brassica napus) as a companion crop increased the yield of small-sized bulbs and decreased total yield and the yield of large-sized bulbs. These results were attributed to poor canola control from the initial bromoxynil plus oxyfl uorfen application because each label restricts application until onions have reached the two true-leaf stage. Onion yield and grade with barley (Hordeum vulgare) as a companion crop was similar to that of onion with no companion crop except during 2002 (Carrington) when rain delayed the postemergence grass herbicide application and lowered onion yield.

“…These researchers also found that soil temperature tended to be higher on the raised beds early in the growing season. Mascagni et al (1995) observed that wheat produced on raised, wide beds may increase production efficiency and overall profitability. The raised, wide bed system may also integrate well with other crops in a rotation.…”

Two experiments were conducted in 2003 -2005 at Hennessey and Lake Carl Blackwell, Oklahoma, to determine the effect of row configuration in bed and flat planting systems in dryland winter wheat. In the bed and flat systems, 8 and 12 treatments were evaluated that included a factorial combination of 2-varieties (''Jagalene'' and ''2174''), 2-N rates (0 and 100 kg ha 71 ) and row configurations. The row configurations were 2-and 3-row on a 75 cm bed. With 2-and 3-row per bed, 30 and 15 cm row spacing were used, respectively. In addition the traditional configuration of a solid stand with 15 cm row spacing was evaluated in the flat system. In four of six site years, bed wheat (either 2-or 3-row per bed) resulted in yields equal to flat planted wheat (15 cm row spacing). No differences in wheat grain yield were found when planting either 2-or 3-row per bed, or on the flat. However, both 2-and 3-row per bed resulted in increased yields when compared to 2-and 3-row configurations without beds. This suggests that bed planting with correct row configuration can help maintain high level of yield through its direct and indirect effect on crop growth characteristics.
