Intercrop Project: Wheat-Vetch Relationship Study at Student Farm

Explore an experiment conducted at the student farm involving IAD students, Mark VanHorn, and Chris Van Kessel. The study focused on the intercropping of wheat and vetch, with the hypothesis that vetch would fix nitrogen leading to higher wheat yield. The project aimed to understand the relationship between these crops. Dive into the research process from the experimental design phase with Mark in September to observing percent cover and progression of the crops until early February of 2003.

  1. Intercrop Project • Location: student farm • Participants: IAD students, Mark VanHorn, Chris Van Kessel • Crops: wheat and vetch • Hypothesis: Vetch would fix nitrogen resulting in a higher wheat yield- Intercrop would result in a positive relationship between these two crops. • What does this all mean? • Interested more in the research process rather than the results
