Research Objectives
The objectives were to determine agronomic benefits of intercropping using different cropping systems combinations with field pea and laying out a package from which famers can select from. Preliminary results indicate yield advantage when pea is intercropped with either canola or mustard compared to other cropping system options such as flax, wheat or oats.
