Effect of defoliation and intercropping with forage legumes on maize yield and forage production

- Summary

Abstract

AbstractLeaf defoliation of maize at various growth stages significantly affected the yield of grain, stem, cob and defoliated leaf. Forage legumes could be established under maize without reducing the grain or stover yield. Leaf defoliation up to 50% did not affect the grain and stover yield components or the yield of undersown Vicia villosa. Copyright © 2003 Whurr Publishers Ltd
