The principle of diversification in the plant organic agriculture

principles of diversification

Deversifikasi plant on the principles of organic agriculture in addition to improving water use efficiency, is the main target recycling burly, disease and pest control weeds in culture and technical improvement of equivalent land. The target is to compensate for the economic benefits derived from agricultural monoculture system with a high external input. Therefore the planning of a mature determine the interaction between one type of plant with other plants. Planning is for the plant can control pests and diseases and weeds of the water cycle and burly.

According to Kline et. al (1980), several considerations in determining the type of plant to integrate with the other plants are as follows:
1.Karakter morphology,
2.Siklus life,
3.Adanya alelopati,
4.Toleransi light and shade of each type of plant (characters physiology),
5.Kebutuhan burly of each type of plant,
6.Efisiensi space perakaran plants, and
7.Proses-processing plant succession and dispersal.

Considerations aims to meet the ecosystem compatibility between one type of plant species in the other. Besides the avoidance of other organisms such as the emphasis pests, diseases and weeds can be overcame.
