Three trials were carried out at CIAT-Palmira to quantify the effect of plot edges and useful plot size in beans. In the 1st trial (sown in Oct. 1977), the competition effect of 36 climbing bean var. associated with maize ICA H-210 in adjacent plots and the effect of the alleys on plot edges were...

The results are presented of 3 expt conducted at CIAT to improve var. destined for use in multiple-cropping systems; (1) evaluation of bean var. (bush and climbing) in 2 cropping systems, monoculture and in association with maize; (2) evaluation of 20 maize genotypes in monoculture and in associa...

Early generation yield testing in beans in monoculture and intercropped with maize
Maize and climbing beans are traditionally planted in association in the sierra regions of L.A. with alt. higher than 1500 m. The system has shown a series of advantages: low incidence of certain pests and diseases, less root lodging in maize, and less risk for the farmers. The types of climbing ...

Mejoramiento de frijoles volubles para sistemas de siembra de asociacion con maiz
The importance of traditional intercropping in the tropics is analyzed, mentioning statistics that emphasize the worldwide importance of this cropping system. Terms that describe multiple cropping systems are defined: sequential cropping (double, triple, and quadruple cropping, and ratooning), as...
