Abstract

Background and objectives: considering the problems related to water shortage and seasonal rainfall reduction in the region and the importance of developing oilseed cultivation and expanding research programs on plants that require little water and nitrogen fertilizer in Ardabil province (Namin city), a study in order to evaluate the yield and ecological indicators of intercropping of camelina with chickpeas in nitrogen fertilizer levels under dryland farming and irrigation conditions in Ardabil.
Materials and methods: Experiment was conducted in the split factorial design in randomized complete block design in the crop year 2022-2023 in three replications. Experimental treatments include irrigation at two levels of irrigation (In three stages) and no irrigation or rainfed cultivation (only use of rainwater) in the main plot and the factorial composition of the nitrogen factor including: Control (11.5 kg of pure nitrogen per hectare as starter and the same for all treatments) and 46 kg of pure nitrogen per hectare and the intercropping patterns in the sub-plots were: sole cropping of camelina and chickpeas and mixed camelina with chickpeas, which were in the form of replacement series and intercropping of camellia - Chickpeas patterns include arrangements of 1:1, 2:2, 3:3 (In an equal ratio of 50% of both plants), 1:2 (in the ratio of 66 and 33%, respectively), 2:1 (in the ratio of 33 and 66 percent) and mixed cropping of Camelina with chickpeas (in equal proportion of 50 percent of both plants).
Results: The cultivation conditions of Irrigation along with the application of nitrogen fertilizer
