To study the spatial distribution patterns and ecological niches of Nilaparvata lugens and its main predatory natural enemies, three treatments including chemical fertilization, rice-duck farming, and no chemical pesticides/fertilizer application (control) were set. Theridiidae, Clubionidae and Salticidae showed the highest niche width under chemical fertilization, rice-duck farming and control, respectively,...

Rice-duck integrated farming is a good ecological agricultural practice which has been widely used in China, Japan, and some Southeast Asia countries or areas recently. It was reported that activities of ducks in the paddy field could bring some positive effects on rice growth, but so far a lot of...

The rice-Cnaphalocrocis medinalis (Guenee) system was studied based on the principles and methods of system sciences to seek possible ways or strategies for pest population control. A conceptual model describing interrelated activities among different generations of C. medinalis (Guenee) and their natural enemies was designed and implemented through differential equations...

The objective of this study is to quantify resource utilization of main predatory arthropods in integrated rice-duck farming system and to explore their role in resource allocation. Through field investigations on main predatory arthropods in integrated rice-duck farming and conventional rice cultivation systems, the structure of the predatory arthropods communities...

Although rice canopy structure is a critical factor that influences rice yield and quality, few research has been conducted on the effects of rice-duck farming on rice canopy structure. Canopy structure characteristics at tillering and full-heading stages of late rice were compared between rice-duck farming and conventional rice farming (control)...

Integrated rice-duck farming system, developed from “raising ducks in paddy fields”, as one of China’s traditional agriculture was encouraged for safe production of rice in China, Japan and other countries in Southeast Asia. To study the effects of ducks on the growth characteristics of rice, a mechanical stimulation experiment was...
