Abstract
Impacts of high and low-input farming systems on the quality change of Safflower oil while intercropped with bitter vetch
Highlights
Conventional farming referred to as a high input system has a crucial result in enhancing food production but had a tremendous troublesome environmental impact (Lichtfouse et al 2009)
Results of mean comparison indicated that plants in high input farming system (HIFS) had more palmitic acid than plants located in Low-input farming system (LIFS)
Sole cropping was the most advantageous pattern, but in some characteristics, intercropping patterns (IPs) was beneficial, especially 2:2 IP, which was superior to sole cropping
Summary
Conventional farming referred to as a high input system has a crucial result in enhancing food production but had a tremendous troublesome environmental impact (Lichtfouse et al 2009). This cropping system depends on extensive inputs like pesticides and fertilizers, which produce wastes that damage the environment. Low input farming systems help farms that utilize less out-farm inputs, integrate plant production and animal, and keep a better biotic diversity (Chaplin-Kramer et al 2015). Low input farming systems include exploitation techniques to obtain maximum yields without harming the health of the inhabitants and the environment (Sarkar et al 2020)
