Abstract (en)

The research was conducted in 2020–2021 at Vytautas Magnus University, Academy of Agriculture, Research Station. The soil of the experimental field is light loam Planosol. The aim of the study was to determine the impact of multi-crops grown for energy purposes on the development and productivity of crops. Crops with different biodiversity were studied:

  1. Single maize crop (MA);
  2. Single hemp crop (HE);
  3. Single faba bean crop (FB);
  4. Binary maize and hemp crop (MA + HE);
  5. Binary maize and faba bean crop (MA + FB);
  6. Binary hemp and faba bean crop (HE + FB);
  7. Ternary crop of maize, hemp and faba beans (MA + HE + FB). The highest total fresh biomass of crops was established in single and multi-cropped maize; however, as expected, the highest total dry biomass was found in the ternary crop. The highest dried biomass of individual species (maize, hemp or beans) was observed of singly grown species, except faba bean in ternary crop. In this crop, the dried biomass of faba bean was the highest, and it replace ternary crop to the first place according to the dried biomass.
