Comparison of native maize and squash in monoculture and intercropping systems

Tropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems
Background: The large amount of native maize available in Mexico can be used in different associations with other crops, such as squash. However, it is necessary to determine whether its productivity is adequate and whether maize germplasm has an ...

Spatiotemporal Land Equivalent Ratio (ST-LER) for Agroforestry Design

Abstract Achieving climate resilience in Mediterranean agriculture hinges on adaptive strategies like agroforestry, yet optimization is constrained by retrospective indices that are effectively spatially blind and temporally static. Consequently, their utility is insufficient for guiding spatial design or quantifying the operational ...
