Title
Grain Yield and Weed Biomass of a Wheat–Lentil Intercrop
Patrick M. Carr; John J. Gardner; Blaine G. Schatz; et al. Agronomy Journal 1995. doi:10.2134/agronj1995.00021962008700030030x
Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Wheat grain yield was unaffected by intercropping.
- Intervention effect Mechanical harvest showed lentil grain yield fell 70 to 85% under intercropping.
- Intervention effect Intercropping raised lentil pod formation height relative to sole cropping.
- Intervention effect Intercropping improved mechanical harvestability of lentil grain.
- Observation Intercrops had land equivalent ratio 1.15 with mechanical harvest.
- Observation Intercrops had land equivalent ratio 1.03 with manual harvest.
- Recommendation Wheat–lentil mixtures were judged probably unsuitable for cool semiarid regions.
