A Corrigendum on
Nitrogen-Fertilized Systems of Maize Intercropped With Tropical Grasses for Enhanced Yields and Estimated Land Use and Meat Production

by Crusciol, C. A. C., Mateus, G. P., Momesso, L., Pariz, C. M., Castilhos, A. M., Calonego, J. C., et al. (2020). Front. Sustain. Food Syst. 4:544853. doi: 10.3389/fsufs.2020.544853

In the published article, there was an error in affiliation 1 and 4. Instead of “1Department of Soil Science, College of Agricultural Science, São Paulo State University, Botucatu, Brazil,” it should be “1Department of Crop Science, College of Agricultural Science, UNESP, São Paulo State University, Botucatu, Brazil”; and instead of “4Department of Animal Nutrition and Breeding, School of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science, São Paulo State University, Botucatu, Brazil,” it should be “4Department of Animal Nutrition and Breeding, School of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science, UNESP, São Paulo State University, Botucatu, Brazil.”

In the original article, there was an error. The test used for statistical analysis was LSD test (P ≤ 0.05).

A correction has been made to Materials and Methods, Statistical Analyses, 1st paragraph:

All data were initially tested for normality using the Shapiro-Wilk test from the UNIVARIATE procedure using the statistical software R (version 3.5.2) with the package “agricolae” (Mendiburu, 2015). All data were distributed normally (W ≥ 0.90). Cropping systems, N management treatments, and their interactions were considered fixed effects. Growing season and its interaction with cropping systems and N managements were not significant at P < 0.05 for any of the dependent variables. Thus, data were combined across growing seasons. Block was considered a random variable. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was performed and if the null hypothesis was rejected, means were compared using LSD teste (P ≤ 0.05).

The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
