Other claims from this paper (3)
- Intervention effect Maize yield responded linearly to increasing nitrogen levels.
- Intervention effect Intercropping did not cause competitive depression or nitrogen transfer in maize compared with sole cropping.
- Intervention effect Irrigation at an IW/CPE ratio of 0.75 significantly increased growth and yield of maize at all nitrogen levels and cropping systems.
