Popis: A technique is described for investigating the rooting pattern of species when intercropped, using Lithium as a non-radioactive tracer. The technique was tested on pure stands and mixtures of barley (Hordeum sativum) and field beans (Vicia faba), with 10% LiCl solution placed at depths of 0, 10, 25 and 62 cm.
