Multi-scale field phenotyping of wheat-bean intercrops: Integrating spectral and agronomic datasets from a three-year trial

This data package was collected in a spring wheat-faba bean intercropping trial conducted at the CKA field site from 2021 to 2023. The experiments were implemented using organic farming practices in a completely randomised design. The study compared the intercropping of three spring wheat cultivars with two faba-bean cultivars and their respective sole crops which served as controls. The datasets include remote sensing parameters related to vegetation performance, such as high-resolution imagery, leaf and canopy reflectance, as well as active and solar-induced fluorescence measurements. These fluorescence measurements can serve as indicators of plant photosynthetic performance. Additionally, the datasets contain traditional crop growth parameters, including biomass, leaf area, chlorophyll content, and grain yield.
