| Abstract | ||||
| Continuous population growth gives rise to food problems in developing countries, which requires enhancement in quantity and quality of agricultural products as well as reduce fertilizer use. Therefore a cropping system study was carried out to establish good agricultural practices that decrease soil degradation and building up fertility of desert soils in Egypt. Accordingly, two rotation cycles were established to investigate the effect of inclusion legume crop (pea) in the rotation compared to heavy feeder crop (potato) | ||||
