The CropSys long-term field site located at Folumgaard Experimental Station in Central Jutland near Viborg, Denmark, was initiated in 1997.
Pedo-climatic zone:
- Temperate oceanic
- Sandy loam
Crops:
Pea intercropped with spring barley
Winter oil seed rape (residual effect)
Intercrop configuration: mixed
Parameters that will be measured:
- Crop yield (quantity and quality)
- Nutrient balance of the grains
- Soil physico-chemical properties
- Microbial community composition
- Biological nitrogen fixation by the legume using the isotope dilution method
