Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Radish planted on bed gave significantly higher wheat equivalent yield (113.55 q/ha) than all other treatments.
- Intervention effect Wheat on bed with radish in furrow gave a wheat equivalent yield 36.37% higher than sole wheat.
- Observation Wheat + turnip intercrop gave a wheat equivalent yield of 77.98 q/ha, ranking after the bed radish intercrop.
- Observation Wheat + cauliflower, wheat + cabbage, wheat + coriander and wheat + fenugreek were not feasible in furrows, probably owing to shading by the wheat crop.
- Intervention effect Sole radish on bed gave a net return 96.5% higher than sole wheat, the maximum net return in the trial.
- Intervention effect Wheat on bed with radish in furrows gave a net return 27.4% higher than sole wheat.
- Recommendation Selective vegetables can be easily grown in furrows under bed-planted wheat, which the authors consider a benefit for small and marginal farmers.
