摘要：

In contrast to earlier results, a clear advantage from mixed cropping of maize and beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) was found in the long-rain seasons (March to September) of 1976 and 1977. Pure stand yields were low due to drought in 1976 and excessive rainfall in 1977. These and other results for long-rain seasons in Kenya suggest that mixtures are more efficient where pure stand yield levels are low, but there is little difference between cropping systems where levels are high. Light interception by maize leaves was quite small until late in the life of the bean crop. © 1979, Cambridge University Press. All rights reserved.
