Magnitude and farm-economic value of grain legume pre-crop benefits in Europe: A review (2015, background): “…legume yields are considered to be very variable due to crop physiology and technical difficulties e.g. in harvesting (Ayaz et al., 2004; Corre-Hellou and Crozat, 2005; von Richthofen et al., 2006a; Hauggaard-Nielsen et al., 2008; Wright, 2008; Sass, 2009; Jensen et al., 2010; Flores et al., 2012).”
Annual intercrops: an alternative pathway for sustainable agriculture. (2011, background): “On the contrary, intercropping offers effective weed suppression, pest and disease control, and use of soil resources under organic farming systems (Bulson et al., 1997; Theunissen, 1997; Jensen et al., 2005).”
Breeding Annual Grain Legumes for Sustainable Agriculture: New Methods to Approach Complex Traits and Target New Cultivar Ideotypes (2015, background): “Intercropping legumes and cereals is a practical application of ecological principles of diversity, competition and facilitation which is still poorly represented in scientific literature (Figure 1) (Santalla et al., 1994; Hauggaard-Nielsen et al., 2007).”
Intercropping with legume for agroecological cropping systems: Complementarity and facilitation processes and the importance of soil microorganisms. A review (2017, background): “…(Bedoussac and Justes, 2010a; Bergkvist et al., 2011; Hauggaard-Nielsen et al., 2008; Jensen et al., 2006; Willey, 1979) (Bedoussac et al., 2011; Hauggaard-Nielsen et al., 2008; Justes et al., 2009; Pelzer et al., 2012) Nitrogen dynamics - Limited interspecific competition for N acquisition -…”
Less meat, more legumes: prospects and challenges in the transition toward sustainable diets in Sweden (2018, positive): “cereal crop is known to reduce both the riskof lodging and the abundance of weeds (Hauggaard-Nielsen et al., 2008; Döring, 2015), but large-scale application of intercropping will requiremulti-actor collaborations to generate knowledge about cultivation techniques and facilitate sorting of the mixed”
Does intercropping enhance yield stability in arable crop production? A meta-analysis (2017, result): “MARK compared with the sole crops (Hauggaard-Nielsen et al., 2008; Dhima et al., 2007; Banik et al., 2006 Jensen, 1996).”
