Other claims from this paper (19)
- Intervention effect Monocrop chickpea had significantly improved yielding and quality traits compared with the barley/chickpea pattern.
- Intervention effect Intercropping had a higher seed index.
- Intervention effect Fertilization with 45% N increased vegetative and reproductive growth and consequently seed yield per feddan.
- Intervention effect Fertilization with 30 kg N per feddan (N2) produced the highest harvest index.
- Intervention effect Fertilization with 30 kg N per feddan (N2) gave similar height to first branch and seed index.
- Intervention effect Compared with monocrop, barley/lupin intercropping significantly increased lupin height traits.
- Intervention effect Compared with monocrop, barley/lupin intercropping gave lupin superiority in number of branches and seed index.
- Intervention effect Compared with monocrop, barley/lupin intercropping gave inferior lupin seed weight per plant.
- Intervention effect The heaviest seed weight per plant and seed yield per feddan were obtained from sole lupin.
- Intervention effect Fertilization with N3 gave acceptable seed yield per feddan for lupin, owing to its superior number of pods and harvest index.
- Intervention effect Intercropping significantly affected barley traits, in favour of sole culture, except for seed and harvest indices.
- Intervention effect Intercropping barley produced more than half of the seed yield per feddan of sole culture.
- Intervention effect Fertilization with N2 (30 kg N/fed.) gave an improved yield insignificantly different from that of N3.
- Observation Under N2 fertilizer dose, the barley/chickpea combination yielded 12.18 ard.
- Observation Under N2 fertilizer dose, the barley/lupin combination yielded 11.08 ard.
- Observation The barley/chickpea combination under N2 represented 61% of the yield of sole barley fertilized with N3.
- Observation The barley/lupin combination under N2 represented 55% of the yield of sole barley fertilized with N3.
- Intervention effect With N2, barley/lupin intercropping yielded 46% lupin relative to sole culture.
- Recommendation Fertilization with the intermediate nitrogen dose (N2) is quite enough for intercropping.
