Other claims from this paper (16)
- Intervention effect Soybean plant density significantly affected maize ears per plant, thousand kernel weight and harvest index.
- Intervention effect A 25% soybean population produced 2.30 maize ears per plant.
- Intervention effect A 25% soybean population produced maize thousand kernel weight of 243.88 g.
- Intervention effect A 25% soybean population produced a maize harvest index of 38.11%.
- Association The interaction of soybean variety and population significantly affected maize grain yield.
- Intervention effect Maize grain yield was highest, 7.33 t ha-1, with a 50% population of soybean variety Boshe.
- Intervention effect Sole cropped maize had significantly higher kernels per ear, biological yield, grain yield and harvest index than intercropped maize.
- Association Soybean varieties significantly affected soybean biological and grain yields.
- Observation Soybean variety Didesa had biological yield of 5.53t ha-1.
- Observation Soybean variety Didesa had grain yield of 2.20 tha-1.
- Association Soybean plant population and variety significantly affected pods per plant.
- Intervention effect A 25% soybean population produced the highest pods per plant, 50.
- Observation Soybean variety Boshe produced the highest pods per plant, 45.
- Association Cropping system significantly affected soybean pods per plant.
- Intervention effect A 75% soybean population gave higher soybean grain yield of 2.09t ha-1.
- Recommendation The authors recommend intercropping maize with 50% soybean population of Didesa for the study area.
