Other claims from this paper (17)
- Intervention effect Intercropping two onion rows with sugar beet significantly increased TSS% of sugar beet compared with 3 and 4 onion rows.
- Intervention effect Intercropping two onion rows with sugar beet significantly increased bulb characters of onion compared with 3 and 4 onion rows.
- Intervention effect Intercropping two onion rows with sugar beet significantly increased NUE compared with 3 and 4 onion rows.
- Intervention effect Increasing onion plant density up to four rows significantly increased onion plant height.
- Intervention effect Increasing onion plant density up to four rows significantly increased onion yield per fad.
- Intervention effect Slow-release N fertilizer had a significant effect on sugar beet and onion traits.
- Intervention effect The blended UF fertilizer at 100 kg N/fad gave the highest sugar beet and onion productivity.
- Intervention effect N rate of 80 kg/fad gave the highest sugar yield per fad.
- Intervention effect N rate of 80 kg/fad gave the highest NUE.
- Association Nematode parameters were negatively correlated with onion-sugar beet intercropping compared with solid sugar beet.
- Intervention effect Four rows with 80 kg N was the most effective treatment in reducing galls and egg-masses per root system of root-knot nematodes.
- Intervention effect Four rows with 80 kg N was the most effective treatment in reducing root gall index, egg-masses index and second-stage juveniles in soil.
- Intervention effect Two onion rows intercropped with sugar beet and UF plus TU at 80 kg N/fad had the highest LER, 1.31 and 1.34.
- Intervention effect Two onion rows intercropped with sugar beet and UF plus TU at 80 kg N/fad maximized net return compared with solid sugar beet.
- Recommendation Growing two onion rows with sugar beet fertilized with 80 kg N/fad as UF plus TU could control root-knot nematodes and increase sugar beet productivity.
- Intervention effect Growing two onion rows with sugar beet at 80 kg N/fad as UF plus TU reduced N fertilizer usage.
- Intervention effect Growing two onion rows with sugar beet at 80 kg N/fad as UF plus TU maximized land use and grower profitability.
