Insufficient research on the influence of strip width on interspecific competition and yield in maize-flax intercropping systems. Limited understanding of the optimal strip width for maximizing overall productivity in maize-flax intercropping systems. Need for further study on the effects of strip width on resource utilization and recovery effect in intercropping systems.

Further research is needed to explore the effects of different strip widths on water use efficiency in other intercropping systems. Studies should investigate the impact of intercropping on crop productivity and water management in different climates and soil types. Research should focus on developing more efficient irrigation systems for intercropping systems.
