Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Dry matter production was greater in soybean and sorghum mixed cropping than in mono-cropping.
- Intervention effect Sorghum growth was enhanced in mixed cropping regardless of spacing.
- Association Dinitrogen-fixing activity in soybean decreased as plant population density increased.
- Association Dinitrogen-fixing activity in soybean decreased with mixed cropping.
- Association Sorghum growth was closely related to the N accumulated in the plant.
- Association N-transfer from soybean was greatest at the 12.5 × 12.5 cm spacing.
- Association Dinitrogen-fixing activity in soybean was reduced at the 12.5 × 12.5 cm spacing.
- Association N-transfer becomes significant when other N sources are limited.
- Mechanism Relative proximity of the root systems of associated grass and legume is essential for N-transfer from the legume to the grass.
