Abstract

In Chapter 6, modeling considerations for intercropped experiments were discussed for the situation wherein separate responses are available for each of the two crops in a mixture. There are, however, many situations in agriculture and in other areas for which there is only one response for the mixture for each variable measured. This results from a physical or experimental inability to measure the response of each component of the mixture, but it is still desirable to model the responses as was done in Chapter 6. We do this in the present chapter.
