Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Legumes sown at the same time as sunflower, except black lentil, reduced sunflower seed yield.
- Observation Black lentil intercrop produced 1385 kg ha-1 dry matter.
- Intervention effect Legumes sown at the same time as sunflower reduced achenes per head and head diameter compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Achene weight was not significantly lower when legumes were sown at V4 or V10.
- Recommendation Hairy vetch is recommended for intercropping at V4 and V10 sunflower growth stages.
- Observation Hairy vetch intercrops produced on average 1593 and 831 kg ha-1 dry matter at V4 and V10.
- Observation At the drier Carrington 1992 site, legume biomass was low when sown at V4 or V10 (314 and 57 kg ha-1).
- Recommendation Sweetclover can be sown at the V4 growth stage of sunflower to establish a cover crop for the subsequent season.
- Intervention effect Sunflower oil content was not influenced by intercropped legumes.
