Narrow-wide row planting pattern improves the light environment and seed yields of intercrop species in relay intercropping system.

Different planting patterns affect the light interception of intercrops under intercropping conditions. Here we revealed that narrow-wide-row relay-intercropping improves the light interception across maize leaves in wide rows (60cm) and narrow rows (40cm), accelerated the biomass production of inte...
