Legume Intercrops with Oat or Mustard in Organic Cropping Systems

“Under drier than normal conditions, this study shows that intercropping legumes and non-legumes can outperform organic crop monocultures in productivity, grain weight and grain protein in the semiarid region of the Canadian prairies. Organic intercrops with non-legumes also play a role in reducing weed pressure, even under unfavorable dry environments.”
