Abstract

In the version of the article initially published, Figure 5 and the related text in the Results and Discussion section contained errors.In Figure 5, the production change values (Mt) should read: Barley: 9.3 (instead of 101.6)Pea: 5.0 (instead of 55.5) Maize (bean): 156.1 (instead of 1,827.6)Bean: 14.7 (instead of 157.6)Maize (cowpea): 78.7 (instead of 851.1)Cowpea: 3.0 (instead of 32.8) Maize (soybean): 701.9 (instead of 7,729.6)Soybean: 168.1 (instead of 1,847.5)Wheat: 0.5 (instead of 5.7) Faba bean: 3.6 (instead of 38.8)In the Results and Discussion section, the text "...ranged from +5.7 Mt for wheat in the wheat-faba bean intercropping to +7,730 Mt for maize in the maize-soybean intercropping" has been changed to "+0.5 Mt for wheat [...] to +701.9 Mt for maize".The sentence regarding production increases has been updated to: "The positive effects of intercropping resulted in increasing maize, barley, and wheat production by 62.4% (maize-soybean), 6.3% (barley-pea), and 0.1% (wheat-faba bean) respectively."Finally, the text "ranging from 0.102 billion hectares for the Wheat-Faba bean association to 2.75 billion hectares for the Maize-Soybean association" has been changed to "9.4 million hectares [...] to 250 million hectares".In the Abstract section, the text "maize (+51%), barley (+6%), and wheat (+1%)" has been changed to "maize (+62.4%),barley (+6.3%), and wheat (+0.1%)".The errors are limited to scaling and do not affect the relative trends, the statistical significance of the results, or the overall conclusions of the study.
