t0“Maize and Pigeonpea Intercropping Systems in Mpumalanga, South Africa”
e0“The yield reduction in intercropping systems for LD and MD pigeon pea cultivars was in the range 7.4-31.0%, while that of maize ranged from 8.7 to 38.6%.”
e1“Yields of both crops in intercropping systems were generally lower than in monocropping systems.”
