How does strip width affect intercrop performancefor various species?
Within the new project CropMix we study how crop diversity (e.g. strip intercropping) in the field can benefit from ecological processes. A group of... -
How is the size of a crop product affected by field design and crop characteristics?
Within the new project CropMix we study how crop diversity (e.g. strip intercropping) in the field can benefit from ecological processes. While the... -
Modelling and quantifying plant traits that contribute to weed suppression in a cereal-legume intercrop
Intercropping is the agricultural practice where two or more crop species are cultivated simultaneously on the same area of land. Intercrop systems... -
The potential of intercropping for weed suppression and crop yield
Intercropping is the agricultural practice where two or more crop species are cultivated simultaneously within a single season on the same area of... -
Quantifying plant traits and weed suppression in intercrop systems
Intercropping is the agricultural practice where two or more crop species are cultivated simultaneously within a single season on the same area of... -
Maize photosynthesis in intercropping: connecting leaf traits to crop performance
Intercropping is the mixed cultivation of crop species on the same field. It is known that intercropping increases productivity. In order to... -
Crop ecological aspects and modelling of cocoa production
Using a mix of experimental and 3D modelling approaches the project aims at understanding pruning effect on cocoa tree functioning and production. -
How do maize plants respond to agronomic management practices?
The improvement of crop breeding and agronomic practices play important roles in alleviating food shortages by increasing maize yield. However,... -
Investigate the plant architecture ideotype of hybrid potato for improved tuber production
Hybrid potato provides potentials for fast breeding and more sustainable tuber production. The novel hybrids can grow from various starting materials,... -
Designing intercropping in the Western Europe
This project aims to investigate the plausibility of combining popular cereal and legume species as narrow strip intercrops to provide a sustainable...
