Abstract
Research efforts on and use of spatial arrangements, spatial and density arrangements, and variation of intercropped experiments are many and varied. The information that is available is scattered and fragmented throughout published literature. The reader is referred to Mead (1980), Mead and Riley (1981), Mead and Stern (1980), and Veevers and Zafar-Yab (1980, 1982) for spatial arrangements and to Neider (1962), Huxley and Maingu (1978), Wahua and Miller (1978), Willey (1979), and Mead (1979) for density and/or spatial arrangements of intercropping experiments.
