“…The mean cost of cultivation is 54320 Rs/ha and 53653Rs/ha for demo and check respectively (Table 3). Similar results also reported by Oad et al, 2007 [13] . The highest gross and net returns were recorded in Cotton + Redgram intercropping system (Demo) compare to sole cotton (Check) during all the study years.…”

“…The higher returns and lower cost of cultivation recorded in Cotton + Redgram intercropping system over sole cotton ultimately increased the benefit cost ratio in demo field over check. Similar findings also reported by Oad et al, 2007 [13] and Latheef Pasha et al, 2018 [6] . Krishna Reddy et al, 2001 [5] found that intercropping of Cotton+ Pigeon Pea/Redgram was beneficial than sole cropping of cotton in sense of monetary recoveries.…”

“…Higher economics in improved cropping systems over sole cotton system can be attributed to higher cotton equivalent yield, market price of the both Cotton and Redgram. Similar findings also reported by Oad et al, 2007 [13] Gnansambbandan et al, 2000 [4] reported that under rainfed conditions Cotton + Redgram inter cropping system has shown positive combinations for better growth and yield contributing parameter and cost benefit ratio over sole cotton crop. Reddy et al, 2001 [14] found that there were enhanced crop yields in intercropping systems ultimately increased gross and net return over sole crop.…”

“…In the Table 1 the results revealed that, the lower cotton yield was noticed in demo is 2136 kg/ha where as in higher cotton yields were noticed in sole cotton i.e., 2405 kg/ha due to cultivation of intercrop. Oad et al, (2007) [13] reported similar results. The yield advantage in intercropping is measured by using some competition functions like relative yield total (RYT), relative value total (RVT), and monetary advantage and base crop equivalent yield may be considered.…”

A front line demonstration on production potential of Cotton + Redgram intercropping system under rainfed conditions in Mahabubnagar district of Telangana state was carried out in farmers fields during 2017-18, 2018-19 and 2019-2020 under District Agricultural Advisory transfer of Technology centre (DAATTC), Mahabubnagar, PJTSAU, Telangana. Intercropping of Cotton and Redgram was sown in 4:1 ratio with an objective of Redgram as inter cropped with cotton is evolved as an alternative sustainable cropping system to sole cotton in rainfed conditions to improve the yields and income of the farmers in the Mahabubnagar district of Telangana state. The average cotton equivalent yield was 3025 kg/ha, 2382 kg/ha and 3698 kg/ha respectively during 2017-18, 2018-19 and 2019-20 and the mean cotton equivalent yield was 3035 kg/ha. The higher net returns (Rs. 89,912) in Cotton + Redgram intercropping over check sole cotton might be due to higher cotton equivalent yield, lower cost of cultivation during all the study years. The mean benefit cost ratio was 2.47: 1 and 2.06: 1 for demo and check respectively.

To determine effects of intercropping broccoli with onion and their correspondence to different nitrogen concentrations on growth, yield and nutrient contents, field studies were conducted for two years. In intercropping plots, onion sets were planted between broccoli rows. Broccoli and onion plants were also grown as monocrops. Nitrogen was applied at three different rates (160, 200 and 240 kg ha–1) in both mono and intercrop plots of broccoli. The overall efficiency of intercropping was evaluated by employing land equivalent ratios (LERs). Cropping systems significantly did not affect chlorophyll reading value, yield and other parameters observed. However, nitrogen application rate had significant effect on these parameters. The highest values of these parameters were generally observed in 240 kg ha–1 nitrogen application. Macro and microelement content of broccoli leaves was affected neither by cropping systems nor by nitrogen fertilization except for N, Mn, Zn and NO3. Intercropping increased plant height but decreased the plant diameter of onion. There wasn’t significant decrease in plant weight of intercropped onion at 240 kg ha–1 nitrogen treatment when compared to monocropping. Broccoli intercropped with onion at 240 kg ha–1 nitrogen had the highest LER values, showing that intercropping practice could be more productive than monocropping especially in case of 240 kg ha–1 nitrogen application.

An experiment was conducted at the Cotton Research Farm, Sreepur, Gazipur during 2009-10 growing season to maximize the benefit of cotton + mungbean intercropping system through appropriate planting arrangement of component crops in the system. Performance of eight different planting arrangements, such as 1, 2, 3 and 4 rows of mungbean in between single row of cotton and 4, 5, 6 and 7 rows of mungbean in between paired row cotton ware compared against their sole cropping. Intercropping and mungbean density reduced individual yield of cotton and mungbean compared to their sole cropping but increased equivalent yield of both cotton and mungbean. The highest seed cotton (2951 kg ha -1 ) and mungbean (3373 kg ha -1 ) equivalent yield was recorded from the paired row cotton +4-row mungbean. The land equivalent ratio of the same combination indicated 31% yield advantage over sole cropping. The same plating arrangement also recorded the highest gross return (Tk. 118039 ha -1 ), gross margin (Tk. 60220 ha -1 ) and BCR (2.04). Thus, the panting arrangement of paired row cotton and 4 rows of mungbean could be grown for higher productivity and economic return in the system.
