Effect of faba bean-garlic intercropping on low-molecular-weight organic acids, yield components, and profitability under different spatial arrangements
in the first and second seasons, respectively. Multivariate analyses, including Pearson's correlation, PCA, radar plot, hierarchical clustering, confirmed that the 2RF:2RG produced a distinctly favorable profile for yield and competitive traits, thereby enhancing overall profitability.
