e0“The intercropping advantage of peanut and maize was mainly from iron uptake efficiency of crops”
e1“In compare with monocropping of peanut, the results showed that the iron uptake efficiency of intercropping system Ⅰ (the ratio of maize and peanut was 6∶10 ) and intercropping systemⅡ (the ratio of maize/peanut/maize was 3∶8∶3) increased by 68.72% and 97.68% respectively”

Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect System I increased peanut iron uptake efficiency by 68.72% versus monocropping.
- Intervention effect System II increased peanut iron uptake efficiency by 97.68% versus monocropping.
- Intervention effect System I decreased iron utilization efficiency by 23.26%.
- Intervention effect System II decreased iron utilization efficiency by 24.09%.
- Observation System I land equivalent ratio was 1.18.
- Observation System II land equivalent ratio was 1.27.
- Mechanism Iron utilization efficiency did not contribute to intercropping advantage.
- Mechanism Reciprocation between uptake and utilization efficiency contributed little to advantage.
