Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Intercropped Chinese cabbage had higher mean soluble protein and nitrate content than monoculture.
- Intervention effect Cabbage intercropped with lettuce had significantly higher chlorophyll a content than monoculture late in the season.
- Intervention effect Soluble sugar concentration did not differ significantly under lettuce intercropping versus monoculture.
- Observation Reducing sugar content varied over the growing period with garlic intercropping.
- Observation Reducing sugar content varied over the growing period with lettuce intercropping.
- Mechanism The authors infer that intercropping cabbage with noncrucifer plants increases its nutrient content.
