Abstract:
Fallowing is regarded as an effective method for the self-recovery management of farmland and is generally used in cultivated land management. Studies have shown that long-term fallow has many ecological and environmental benefits. However, the long-term fallowing of farmland has also caused a decline in the grain production of farmland for a period of time. Short-term fallow can reduce the risk of food insecurity, but there are few studies on short-term fallow, especially on the comparation of different fallowing management methods and their relationship with soil microbial ecology. Our study has focused on seven treatments. Firstly, the traditional farming method was set as the control group. Native vegetation and crop-pasture vegetation were set as the fallowing vegetation. There were three irrigation–fertilization levels for each vegetation. The effects of the sampling times showed that the impact of fallow management on the soil properties became gradually stronger with time. The interactions between the sampling times and treatments showed a significant impact on organic carbon and total nitrogen. There was a significant impact of fallow management on the inorganic carbon accumulation and ammonia nitrogen consumption. Microbial biomass carbon was significantly increased by fallowing. Fallowing with irrigation could enhance the soil microbial nitrogen transformation. Some genera associated with assisting diseases were significantly increased by the native vegetation fallow and grass fallow with farmyard manure. The fallow with native vegetation showed more advantageous ecological benefits than the crop-pasture vegetation fallow. Although the crop-pasture vegetation followed the principle of ecological intensification, it failed to show better ecological benefits in the short fallow period. In irrigation management, the benefits of native vegetation and crop-pasture vegetation are similar. However, considering the lower cost of crop-pasture vegetation, crop-pasture vegetation fallow with irrigation could be a better choice. If it is difficult to implement conservation measures during the fallowing process, native vegetation fallowing without management may be the only fallowing choice.

Abstract:
Fallow management can improve the soil nutrients in the topsoil and upper subsoil. However, little is known about the effects of short-term (one year) fallowing with different treatments, such as vegetation and fertilization, on subsoil (20–40 cm) properties. We conducted field trials to explore the changes in subsoil properties in response to such treatments in the Yellow River Delta region in China. Different vegetation and fertilization treatments were applied, and we measured the carbon and nitrogen contents, microbial biomass and microbial community structure in the subsoil. Fallowing without manure resulted in the storage of more total nitrogen (16.38%) than fallowing with manure, and meadow vegetation improved the ammonium nitrogen content (45.71%) relative to spontaneous vegetation. Spontaneous vegetation with manure improved the microbial biomass nitrogen (P < 0.05). Although the impact of short-term fallowing on microbial community structure was low, an effect of management was observed for some genera. Blastopirellula, Lysobacter, and Acidobacteria Gp6 showed significant differences among fallow treatments by the end of the year (P < 0.05). Blastopirellula abundance was related to the microbial biomass nitrogen and nitrogen mineralization rate in the subsoil. Manure retained a high abundance of Lysobacter, which may strengthen soil-borne disease resistance. The response of Acidobacteria Gp6 showed that meadow vegetation without manure may not benefit future crops. Although the treatments did not significantly improve microbial community structure in the one-year period, annual fallowing improved certain subsoil properties and increased the number of functional genera, which may enhance crop productivity in the future.

Abstract:
There are currently concerns within some sugar industries that long-term monoculture has led to soil degradation and consequent yield decline. An investigation was conducted in Swaziland to assess the effects of fallowing and green manuring practices, over a seven-month period, on sugarcane yields and the physical properties of a poorly draining clay soil. In the subsequent first sugarcane crop after planting, yields were improved from 129 t ha−1 under continuous sugarcane to 141–144 t ha−1 after fallowing and green manuring, but there were no significant responses in the first and second ratoon crops. Also, in the first crop after planting, root length index increased from 3.5 km m−2 under continuous sugarcane to 5.2–6.8 km m−2 after fallowing, and improved rooting was still evident in the first ratoon crop where there had been soil drying during the fallow period. Soil bulk density, total porosity and water-holding capacity were not affected by the fallowing practices. However, air-filled porosity increased from 11 % under continuous sugarcane to 16% after fallowing, and steady state ponded infiltration rates were increased from 0.61 mm h−1 to 1.34 mm h−1, but these improvements were no longer evident after a year back under sugarcane. Levels of soil organic matter were reduced in all cases, probably as a result of the tillage operations involved. In the plant crop, root length was well correlated with air-filled porosity, indicating the importance of improving belowground air supply for crop production on poorly draining clay soils.

Previous work found that white clover (Trifolium repens L.) yield initially decreased, but subsequently increased following a pastoral fallow. The objective of this research was to quantify the response in herbage production and stolon characteristics of white clover up to 4 years after fallowing. Four treatments were used: fallowed 1990/91 (F4), fallowed 1991/92 (F3), fallowed 1993/94 (F1) and non-fallowed (F0). The fallowing period was between September and May. White clover dry matter yield (between 15/12/94 and 18/5/95) was significantly greater for the treatment F4 than F0 (P

Abstract:
Experimental evidence is provided to support earlier suggestions that summer-fallowing of cropland enhances the relative abundance of dormant wild oats at the expense of nondormant ones. Two heterogeneous populations of wild oats, Avena fatua L., were synthesized, each composed of a different set of true-breeding dormant and nondormant lines in equal initial frequencies. Subsequent generations of these mixed-stand populations were grown without conscious selection under two cultivation conditions: (i) propagation in every growing season (continuous cropping) and (ii) a 2-year rotation consisting of a year of propagation followed by a year of summer-fallowing. These experimental populations responded differently to the two cultivation practices. The relative frequency of dormant lines increased substantially in both populations propagated under the summer-fallow regime, compared with the continuous-cropping regime. Implications of this finding for weed control are discussed.

Abstract:
Shifting cultivation is considered to be a key cause of deforestation in the tropics as agriculturalists transform the rain forest into cropland and later allow for its regeneration through fallowing. Forest fallows strongly influence the ecological and economic potential of shifting cultivation, yet, secondary forest management among shifting cultivators remains poorly understood. This study focuses on secondary forest management among peasant households in a land-abundant ejido, near the Calakmul Biosphere Reserve of Mexico. Data were gathered through in-depth household interviews and field visits with 44 households, accounting for more than 450 fields. Striking differences were found in fallowing practices in Nuevo Becal. The holding of secondary forest is related to access to male labour, wealth in land-assets, household age, and the holding of pasture. Fallow length at the plot level is associated with household age, land holding size and the manner in which land is acquired. Fallow periods tend to be longer for cycles begun from primary forest and appear to have become longer over time. This study demonstrates the importance of the microdynamics that influence differential land use decisions among households under apparently similar environmental and macroeconomic conditions.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Agroforestry researchers in Eastern Zambia have identified improved fallows as an intervention for soil fertility problems faced by small-scale farmers. In both on-station and on-farm research experiments which have been conducted since 1989, results have shown that improved fallows can mitigate soil degradation and eventually improve land productivity. Both researchers and extensionists have since embarked on disseminating these fallows to the farming community. Researchers were initially entirely dependent on the conventional agricultural extension services to disseminate the technology to the farmers but the process was slow and so was the uptake for the technology by farmers. As researchers were anxious to see that farmers took up improved fallows in a fastest possible way, they opted to use alternative dissemination pathways such as farmer trainers and local leaders. The purpose of this study was to investigate the three dissemination pathways and determine their effectiveness as regards improved fallows. This study assumed that farmers were not taking up improved fallows because they lacked knowledge of it, and also that the lack of knowledge was exacerbated by the ineffective pathway used to reach the farmers. The study was conducted in Chadiza, Chipata and Katete districts of Eastern Zambia. Data were collected using questionnaires in 28 villages across the three districts. Included in the sample were 296 small-scale farmers for whom this technology is intended. Additionally, 51 farmer trainers, 15 local leaders and 14 agricultural extension officers were interviewed as disseminators of this technology. Farmers were randomly sampled; local leaders were systematically sampled while a total enumeration was done for farmer trainers and agricultural extension officers present at the time of the interviews. This study found that 92% of the farmers were aware of the technology, with 68% having only known about it between 1998 and early 2000. This was the period when farmer trainers were already working. Farmer trainers were source of initial information to 41% of the farmers and yet they only started working recently. Although 92% of the farmers had heard about improved fallows, only 33% had ever planted some. Ten percent cf the entire population of farmers could be said to have adopted improved fallows because they have planted more than one fallow. Lack of knowledge is therefore not the only reason that farmers were not taking up improved fallows. Farmer trainers were found to currently be a more effective dissemination pathway as they were able to reach more farmers even in areas where agricultural extension officers had not been before. Local leaders have not been involved with disseminating improved fallows. Agricultural extension officers were hampered by lack of resources but were still trying to assist farmers with resource assistance from external institutions such as NGOs. The findings point to a need for participatory extension approaches as well as participatory monitoring and evaluation systems.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Agrobosbou-navorsers in Oos-Zambië het braaklandbewerking geïdentifiseer as ingryping in grondvrugbaarheidsprobleme wat ondervind word deur boere wat op klein skaal boer. Die resultaat van eksperimente wat gedoen is as deel van beide proefplaas- en plaasnavorsing sedert 1989 het daarop gewys dat die bewerking van braaklande die agteruitgang van grond kan temper en geleidelik die produktiwiteit daarvan kan verhoog. Navorsers sowel as voorligtingsbeamptes het sedertdien onderneem om braaklandbewerking aan die boeregemeenskap bekend te stel. Navorsers was aanvanklik ten volle afhanklik van die konvensionele landbou-voorligtingsdienste om die verspreiding van tegnologiese kennis onder boere te hanteer. Hierdie verspreidingsproses was egter stadig en die boere het ook te lank geneem om die tegnologie in werking te stel. Aangesien dit vir die navorsers belangrik was dat boere braaklandbewerking so spoedig moontlik begin. het hulle daarop besluit om alternatiewe metodes van kennisverspreiding te gebruik. Hierdie alternatiewe metodes het behels dat inligting versprei is deur opleidingsbeamptes onder boere sowel as deur plaaslike leiers. Die doel van hierdie studie was om die drie kanale wat gebruik is om inligting te versprei, te ondersoek en die effektiwiteit daarvan vas te stel. Hierdie studie het voorveronderstel dat boere nie braaklandbewerking gebruik nie omdat hulle nie oor die nodige kennis beskik het nie, en dat die gebrek aan die nodige kennis veroorsaak en vererger is deur die oneffektiewe kanale wat gebruik is om die inligting onder boere te versprei. Die studie is uitgevoer in die distrikte Chadiza, Chipata en Katete van Oos-Zambië. Data is ingesamel deur die gebruik van vraelyste in 28 dorpe dwarsdeur die drie distrikte. Dié steekproef sluit 296 boere in wat op klein skaal boer en op wie dié tegnologie gemik was. Onderhoude is gevoer met 'n aantal addisionele persone, as verspreiders van tegnologiese kennis, bestaande uit Slopleidingsbeamptes onder boere, 15 tradisionele plaaslike leiers, en 14 landbou-voorligtingsbeamptes. Boere is lukraak getrek vir die steekproef Plaaslike leiers is sistematies getrek, terwyl die totale aantal opleidingsbeamptes en landbou-voorligtingsbeamptes wat teenwoordig was ten tye van die onderhoude, as proefpersone gebruik is. Daar is bevind dat 92% van die boere bewus was van dié tegnologie, waarvan 68% eers tussen 1998 en vroeg 2000 daarvan gehoor het. Dit was die periode waarin opleidingsbeamptes alreeds onder die boere werksaam was. Opleidingsbeamptes was vir 41% van die boere die bron van die oorspronklike inligting, en tog het hulle onlangs eers onder die boere begin werk. Alhoewel 92% van die boere al van die bewerking van braaklande gehoor het, het slegs 33% al ooit braaklande aangelê. Daar kan gesê word dat tien persent van die totale boerebevolking braaklandbewerking prakties toegepas het omdat hulle meer as een bewerkte braakland aangelê het. Die gebrek aan kennis is daarom nie die enigste rede vir boere se traagheid om die praktyk van braaklandbewerking te aanvaar nie. Opleidingsbeamptes blyk tans die mees effektiewe verspreiders van inligting onder boere te wees aangesien hulle daartoe in staat was om meer boere te bereik, selfs in gebiede waar landbou-voorligtingsbeamptes nog nooit voorheen was nie. Plaaslike leiers was nie betrokke by die verspreiding van braaklandbewerking me. Landbou voorligtingsbeamptes is gekniehalter deur'n gebrek aan hulpbronne, maar het steeds probeer om boere by te staan met behulp van bystand wat verleen is deur eksterne instellings soos Nie-Regeringsorganisasies (NRO's). Dié bevindinge dui op 'n behoefte aan voorligtingsbenaderings sowel as monitering- en evalueringstelsels wat deelnamegeoriënteer is.

Abstract Eddy Covariance (EC) system was recommended a fine instrument to measure flux of greenhouse gases and turbulence heat flux.And this study is to measure and analysis to surface fluxes over rice paddies during flooded and fallowing seasons(2006/4-2006/5、2006/9-2006/10、2006/12、2007/1) in Wu-Feng Agricultural Research Institute, Taichung, Taiwan (24°01´ N ,120°41´ E).The soil during flooded seasons is coverd by water and the soil during fallowing seasons is not. It is found the value of latent heat fluxes are between 0 and 120 Wm-2, and the value of sensible heat fluxes are between -10 and 70 Wm-2 during flooded seasons.The energy balance ratio is 0.88 during flooded seasons daytime(7:00 am~5:00 pm). The value of latent heat fluxes are between 0 and 120 Wm-2, and the value of sensible heat fluxes are between -10 and 100 Wm-2 during fallowing seasons.The energy balance ratio is 0.7during fallowing seasons daytime(7:00 am~5:00 pm) The mean value of albedo during the fallowing seasons daytime period was 0.127 and the mean value of Bowen Ratio during the fallowing seasons daytime period was 0.82. The mean value of aerodynamic resistance(ra) during the daytime period was 50 sm-1,and canopy resistance(rc) was 406 s m-1. The aerodynamic resistance are always higher than canopy resistance.

Abstract:
Avian Typhoid, worldwide spread, is one of the principal diseases that devastate industrial poultry, causing serious economic losses to the poultry sector. The present study investigated the effectiveness of the fallowing technique, applied for a 149 days period, to a commercial poultry farm with a history of Salmonella Gallinarum isolation. Phenotypic detection of the pathogen in specific cultures was carried out from drag swabs collected from poultry facilities and equipment after the fallowing. An epidemiological inquiry was also carried out to verify the conditions of applied fallowing and to subsidize the laboratory tests. The bacteriological findings suggested that the fallowing technique in the period considered was not effective, for Salmonella spp. was isolated in 65% of the environmental samples. It was possible to infer that the sanitary-hygienic measures adopted in the fallow period were not effective, which requires new disinfection procedures and new bacteriological monitoring, besides an even longer fallow period. It was further concluded that the epidemiological inquiry is a valuable tool that ought to be adopted to investigate the relations between the epidemiological triad formed by Salmonella, the host, and the environment, while also being useful to support complementary exams, such as isolation in bacterial cultures.

Abstract:
Banana production is threatened by nematodes that parasitize the root system. The damage that nematodes inflict when feeding destroys the banana’s root system, limiting nutrient and water uptake, and reducing the efficiency of the root system to anchor the plant, resulting in toppling, especially during severe wind. Such damage caused by nematodes results in significantly reduced yields. A variety of nematode genera are associated with banana. The most widely distributed and damaging species are Radopholus similis, Pratylenchus coffeae, Pratylenchus goodeyi, Meloidogyne spp. and Helicotylenchus multicinctus. Effective nematode control measures include resistant or tolerant cultivars, chemical control, fallowing, cover- and inter-cropping, application of organic soil amendments and biological control. In East and West Africa, banana serves as a staple food and is planted by smallholder farmers for whom many control options are difficult to implement and chemical control is too expensive. Therefore, alternative control measures for sustainable production need to be explored. Some of these options are discussed in this chapter.

Abstract Fallowing the Depression, the early 1930s seemed a bad time for jazz. Yet music’s unfolding cannot be subsumed in cultural, still less social, history, and recordings-our sole reliable witnesses-prove that the language of jazz continued to develop. What happened in the 1930s was built on the 1920s, the achievements of that decade being consolidated and synthesized, then germinating further innovations. These became known as swing. In the jazz of the 1930s there was no specifically “new movement.” There seldom is; yet people prefer fantasy to fact, and hence various dates have been accepted as marking the start of this swing music. The most plausible remains August 21, 1935, the day of a spectacularly successful performance from Benny Goodman’s dejected band at a ballroom in Los Angeles. Yet by then swing was almost old, and a less improbable candidate is the now-forgotten Casa Loma Orchestra, which from 1930 recorded in a style that seemed new to jazz. Played with extraordinary impetus, “Maniac’s Ball” (Brunswick) is representative, and tension is increased relentlessly through each idea being slightly more propulsive than the last. Gene Gifford, the band’s chief arranger, was preoccupied not with melody or color but with almost

Abstract:
The main objective of the article is to indicate the main challenges and development opportunities related to the bioeconomy, shown in the regional layout on the example of the Małopolska voivodeship. The theoretical part of a paper is basing on a review of the literature regarding a concept of bioeconomy. It finds is conclusions in a model of 'bio-economy triad of challenges', that the conventional economy is facing. The issues of bioeconomy in this paper are presented in a context of:  processes taking place between enterprises, consumers and the state,  challenges for qualitative and quantitative economic development. Referring to the above-mentioned model, it was stated that the bioeconomy should be the main direction of development as part of the smart specialization strategy for Małopolska. This will allow, among others development of functional value chains, increasing the added value of production and the possibility of sustainable management of natural resources. Attention was also paid to conditions of development that may constitute significant barriers in shaping the bio-profile of the economy on a regional basis:  environmental, in the sense of sustainable access to natural resources;  social, understood as the quality of social capital and access to a qualified workforce;  institutional, being the state's responsibility and related to the law, providing adequate infrastructure or adequate expenditures for R&amp;D. It was noticed that Małopolska is characterized by a dual development model - on the one hand, we are dealing with sectors of modern technologies concentrated in the provincial city and some poviat cities. On the other hand, when we talk about the raw material sphere, one can talk about development destimulants, i.e. agrarian structure, the problem of fallowing land or the lack of a qualified workforce in rural areas.

Abstract:
One of the most dynamic musical instruments in terms of electronic dimension is concerned and practical possibility to apply in eLearning systems is classical organ. The dynamics of this development started in the 1960s when, for the first time the classical organ in its jazz format was invented in America and then in Europe. Today. building electronic (digital) organs from transistor and lamps with sound generators organs to digital organ has become widely spread. Digital organs have reached extraordinary professional performances in which the sound diversity and natural sounds are copied and rendered with great fidelity. Famous makes from Europe and America have started to develop independent intonation and sound application systems. All these aspects as well as the practical applications in which acoustic research could be involved by applying digital systems that exist in Romanian research to organ music are likely to open new horizons for the application of research (and learning) to the field of electro-sound that could be naturally followed by the introduction of eLearning systems in musical education. Starting from this development principles in digital systems of classical organs, there are multiple learning variants through eLearning system.This is very effective, especcialy for disabled persons. The learning system can be eassily addapted to different methods, for example the situation in wich the teacher is fallowing from distance the student, or the situation of direct hearing memorization. All this things are possible because of the digital organ's abbilities to reproduce very easily musical scores, that can be memorised by persons with visual disabilities. Another interactiv system can be developed by using the research on sound, till the dimension in wich it resemples most with natural sound. Here interfeers the acoustic research. It is well known that visual disabled persons have superior hearing abbilities. They can distinguish different sonorities and qualities of the sounds. A basic research in this domain with qualified personnel and researchers speccialized in vizual dissabled persons is possible and can be applied in Romania.
