Abstract
The simplest form of intercropping with three or more crops in the mixture and with one major crop and two or more minor crops was considered in Chapter 12. The complexity of the statistical analyses over that in Chapter 2 (two crops) of Volume I is increased. The methods of Chapters 3 and 4 of Volume I were extended to mixtures of three or more crops in Chapter 13. Analyses for individual crop responses for each crop as well as analyses for combined responses for all crops in the mixture are presented. The density for a given crop in the mixture was held constant from mixture to mixture. In the present chapter, cropping systems which allow varying densities for some or all crops are considered. The methods presented herein are a generalization of those presented in Chapter 5 of Volume I.
