Impact of push–pull cropping system on soil physicochemical properties: A Principal component biplot depicting the relationship between soil physicochemical properties and their association with cropping systems. 1 = Dim1 for principal component and 2 = Dim2 for principal component; B Non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDs; distance Bray–Curtis) showing the clustering relationships between the different soil physicochemical properties; C Histogram showing the % predominant contribution of the soil chemical properties based on similarities. PPT, push–pull technology; Mono, maize-monoculture cropping system; pH, potential of hydrogen; EC, electrical conductivity; P, phosphorus; K, potassium; Na, sodium; Ca, calcium; Mg, magnesium; Fe, iron; Mn, manganese; Cu, copper; Zn, zinc; B, boron; Mo, molybdenum; S, sulphur; N, nitrogen; OC, organic carbon; EA, exchangeable acidity; ESP, exchangeable sodium percentage
