- Intervention effect Narrow row spacing gave 22% higher shoot dry matter than wide rows in mungbean.
- Intervention effect Narrow row spacing gave 14% more yield than wide rows in mungbean.
- Intervention effect The yield advantage of narrow rows in mungbean ranged from 10% to 36% across irrigated and rain-fed trials.
- Intervention effect Plant density had no significant effect on mungbean in any trial.
- Intervention effect The interaction between plant density and row spacing had no significant effect on mungbean in any trial.
- Association The yield advantage of narrow rows in mungbean was related to 22% more intercepted radiation.
- Intervention effect Simulations suggested narrow rows had greater soil-water use through transpiration than evaporation in mungbean.
- Intervention effect Simulations suggested narrow rows gave higher yield per mm of soil water in mungbean.
- Intervention effect Long-term simulation over 123 years indicated narrow rows could give up to 30% higher grain yield than wide rows in 95% of seasons.
