Data was generated from a plot experiment in Lönnstorp, Sweden intercropping oilseed rape (OSR) with various legumes to assess pests, pathogens and weeds 2019-2020.Includes damage from slugs and cabbage stem flea beetle (CSFB) in September and November 2019. CSFB larval abundance in March 2020. Weed biomass in May 2020 and yield of OSR and legumes in August 2020. Pollen beetle and Brassica pod midge damage in June 2020. Faba rust in July 2020. It also includes slug damage to OSR, spring faba and clover in a follow up cage trial. The associated manuscript was submitted to Frontiers in Agronomy in September 2021 with the title: The potential of intercropping for multifunctional crop protection in oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.).
