title: Intercropping of cereals and grain legumes for increased production, weed control, im-proved product quality and prevention of N –losses in European organic farming systems creator: Jensen, Erik Stee creator: Ambus, Per creator: Bellostas, Natalia creator: Boisen, Sigurd creator: Brisson, Nadine creator: Corre-Hellou, Guanelle creator: Crozat, Yves creator: Dahlmann, Christoph creator: Dibet, Audry creator: von Fragstein, Peter creator: Gooding, Mike creator: Hauggaard-Nielsen, Henrik creator: Kasyanova, Elena creator: Monti, Michele creator: Pristeri, Aurelio subject: Crop combinations and interactions description: – Intercropping of cereals and grain legumes is a technology to enhance biodiversity in organic agro-ecosystems, enhance and stabilize yields and make better use of plant growth resources. Here we report the preliminary results of the EU FP 5 research project “Intercrop” carried out in five European regions. The project demonstrates several significant benefits which could be exploited to a greater degree in European organic farming . date: 2006 type: Conference paper, poster, etc. type: NonPeerReviewed format: source identifier: http://orgprints.org/7659/1/template-intercrop.doc identifier: Jensen, Erik Stee; Ambus, Per; Bellostas, Natalia; Boisen, Sigurd; Brisson, Nadine; Corre-Hellou, Guanelle; Crozat, Yves; Dahlmann, Christoph; Dibet, Audry; von Fragstein, Peter; Gooding, Mike; Hauggaard-Nielsen, Henrik; Kasyanova, Elena; Monti, Michele and Pristeri, Aurelio (2006) Intercropping of cereals and grain legumes for increased production, weed control, im-proved product quality and prevention of N –losses in European organic farming systems.
