Abstract:Sustainable increase of total productivity by improvement of resources use efficiency in arid areas is very important. Intercropping can be a good practice for this strategy. For this purpose, a three-year field experiment was conducted as a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications to assess the agronomic and economic indices of intercropping patterns. The experiment treatments included C1: sole cotton, C2: sole sesame, and intercropping ratios (C3: 20:80, C4: 40:60, C5: 50:50, C6: 60:40… Show more
