- Intervention effect Early, short:late, tall same-row mixture yielded 13% more than the midcomponent in 1991.
- Intervention effect Early, tall:late, tall same-row mixture yielded 14% more than the midcomponent in 1992.
- Intervention effect Alternate-row mixtures yielded similar or significantly greater than their monocrops in 1991 and 1992, except one mixture.
- Intervention effect Late, short cultivar in alternate-row mixture with early, tall cultivar yielded significantly lower than monocrop in 1991.
- Intervention effect Early, short:late, short alternate-row mixture produced 7.0% more spikes than the midcomponent in 1992.
- Association Same-row mixtures of early, short:late, tall and early, tall:late, tall cultivars had the best combining abilities.
- Intervention effect Phenotypically contrasting barley mixtures may give a yield advantage over monocrops.
