Limited arable land area and deteriorating soil health in smallholder farmers’ fields of subtropical regions in China have led to an urgent demand for sustainable production practices with greater land productivity and nutrients use efficiency. A group of field experiments at three locations (Yaan, Lezhi and Renshou) in two consecutive years of 2012–2013 were conducted to study crop production and nutrients recovery of maize ( Zea mays L.) and soybean ( Glycine max (L.) Merr.) in monocropping and additive relay intercropping systems. The results showed that the total crop yields of the 2:2 maize-to-soybean wide-narrow row spacing planting pattern (RI wn ) were significantly higher than that of the 1:1 maize-to-soybean equal row spacing planting pattern (RI e ), and the average land equivalent ratios (LER) of the grain yield were 1.79 and 1.49 for the RI wn and RI e , respectively. The nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) recovery efficiency calculated by the ratios of crop nutrients removed and fertilizer input indicated that the RI wn had a higher nutrients recovery than the RI e due to proper spacing between maize and soybean rows and higher soybean yield in RI wn . In terms of the amount of fertilizer applied, based on this experiment, P should be reduced in maize plantings and increased in soybean plantings to maintain the balance of soil P. Considering the higher temperatures during the soybean vegetative growth phase, N fertilizer inputs should be controlled to prevent excessive soybean growth. In addition, excess K was taken up in the crop biomass, maybe the straw should be returned to the field to maintain soil K fertility sustainable for the long term.
