Maize-grain legume intercropping is an attractive option for ecological intensification that reduces climatic risk for smallholder farmers in central Mozambique (2012, background): “Well-designed maize–legume intercrops in both time and space have been found to be highly productive (LER ≥ 1) and efficient in resource utilisation under sub-humid conditions resulting in maintenance or improvement of the yield of the main crop (Baldé et al., 2011).”
