Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Lettuce yield increased on average by 66% when planted with bean compared with its sole crop.
- Intervention effect Okra intercropped with squash under the 1:2 row arrangement had the least significant yield, at 5.5 ton ha¹.
- Intervention effect Okra intercropped with squash under the other row arrangements did not differ in yield from okra sole crop (7.01 ton ha¹).
- Intervention effect Bean intercropped with lettuce and squash under all row arrangements had the highest significant yields.
- Intervention effect Bean intercropped with okra under the 2:1 row arrangement had the highest significant yield, at 16.66 ton ha¹, above okra sole crop yield (13.63 ton ha¹).
- Intervention effect Squash intercropped with bean under the 2:1 and 2:2 row arrangements had the highest significant yields.
- Intervention effect Squash intercropped with okra under the 1:1 and 1:2 row arrangements had significantly lower yields than squash sole crop.
- Intervention effect The other squash and okra combinations under different row arrangements had yields intermediate between the two sole crops.
- Observation Almost all intercropping combinations gave LER values above one, indicating the superiority of intercropping over sole cropping.
