Abstract:A greater understanding of the relationship between soil microorganisms and intercropping systems could contribute to the optimization of land use, fostering sustainable and efficient agriculture. This study entails a comparative intercropping assay using cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) and melon (Cucumis melo) under organic management with different patterns and 30% less organic fertilization than that used in monocrops in the first year. The intercropping system changed the bacterial community structure independe… Show more
