Other claims from this paper (6)
- Association Increasing corn density directly reduced interseeded cover crop biomass.
- Mechanism Light transmission and weeds mediated indirect effects of corn density on cover crop biomass.
- Intervention effect Corn grain yield did not differ between plots with and without interseeded cover crops.
- Intervention effect October weed biomass was 31% lower with interseeded cover crops than without.
- Recommendation Authors suggest interseeding cover crops to improve weed suppression in corn.
- Recommendation Authors suggest a slightly lower corn planting rate when interseeding cover crops.
