Temporal niche differentiation increases the land equivalent ratio of annual intercrops: A meta-analysis

open access: yesField Crops Research, 2015
Sustainable intensification of agriculture is needed to meet higher future food demands while mitigating agriculture’s ecological footprint. Intercropping is a strategy for increasing agricultural productivity per unit land that is based on ecological ...

Robust Increases of Land Equivalent Ratio with Temporal Niche Differentiation: A Meta‐Quantile Regression

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, 2016
Intercropping has been shown to be land use efficient, but there is a large variation in the land equivalent ratio (LER) among studies. We used quantile regression to estimate the effect of temporal niche differentiation and its interaction with other ...

Intercropping maize and soybean increases efficiency of land and fertilizer nitrogen use; A meta-analysis

open access: yesField Crops Research, 2020
Intercropping exploits species complementarities to achieve sustainable intensification by increasing crop outputs per unit land with reduced anthropogenic inputs. Cereal/legume intercropping is a classical case.

Production ecology of agroforestry systems: A minimal mechanistic model and analytical derivation of the land equivalent ratio

open access: yesMathematical Biosciences, 2007
In this paper, the yield and the land equivalent ratio (LER) of a silvo-arable agroforestry (SAF) system, containing one tree and one crop species, is analyzed analytically using a minimal mechanistic model describing the system dynamics.
