Mixed Planting with Legumes Modified the Water Source and Water Use of Pearl Millet
Plant Production Science, 2005 In semi-arid areas, pearl millet is an important staple food crop that is traditionally intercropped with cowpea. This study evaluated the water competition between pearl millet and cowpea using deuterated water. At vegetative stage, pearl millet biomass
