“…In this regard, (Odhiambo and Ariga, 2001) found that, when maize intercropped with beans in different ratios, the production increased due to reducing competition between the two species compared to the competition within specie. However, these results are in harmony with those reported by (Megawer et al, 2010) on barley intercropped with lupin and (Jalilian et al, 2017) on safflower intercropped with bitter vetch. However, fruit yield of fennel/fad., as well as seed yield and fixed oil yield per faddan of fenugreek were significantly decreased with intercropping system treatments compared to sole crop system in the first and second seasons.…”

rows in comparison with sole cropped of each species and different phosphorus fertilization rates (0.0, 32 and 48 P 2 O 5 kg/faddan) and their combination treatments on growth, yield components, oil production as well as some competitive indices of both tested crops. Application of phosphorus at 48 kg P 2 O 5 /faddan caused significant increase in all parameters of fennel and fenugreek over the other rates under study. Intercropping system 1:3 (fennel: fenugreek), in most cases, significantly increased the recorded growth parameters, yield components, fixed oil content of fenugreek and volatile oil yield per fennel plant as well as competitive indices of the two components in the two seasons, whereas all intercropping systems significantly decreased seed, fruit and oil yield per faddan compared to sole crop (control). In addition, from studying competitive indices, it was clear that, the high land equivalent ratio (1.137 and 1.156), area time equivalent ratio (1.013 and 1.023), land utilization efficiency (107.53% and 108.72%) and relative crowding coefficient (2.143 and 2.917) values were achieved by the combination treatment between intercropping system of one row of fennel alternating with three rows of fenugreek combined with phosphorus at a rate of 32 P 2 O 5 kg/faddan during the first and second seasons, respectively. Generally, it could be gained from sowing one faddan, by using the intercropping pattern of 1:3 combined with phosphorus fertilization at 32 kg P 2 O 5 /faddan , the same yield which would required about 1.137 or 1.156 faddan of each crop cultivated alone. Also this treatment is economic by using small area.

“…With a higher number of cowpea plants per unit area, there was better weed suppression preventing weed competition at the critical growth stages of ginger, leading to better spread of ginger rhizome. Similar result was reported by Jalilian et al [6] in inter cropping system of Bitter vetch and Saffflower where a closer row ratio of 2:2 recorded better results in comparison to 3:2, 4:2 and 5:2 row ratios.…”

A field experiment was conducted in Instruction-cum-Research Farm of Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat district, Assam, India during 2014-15 and 2015-16 to identify a suitable combination of ginger and cowpea intercropping and weed management practice to effectively manage the weeds in ginger. A total of 16 numbers of treatment combinations were considered, comprising 4 legume inter-cropping systems and 4 weed management practices. Intercropping of legume crop Cowpea either in between rows of Ginger and incorporated at 40 days after sowing (DAS) or in between alternate rows of Ginger and incorporated at 40 days after sowing (DAS) and pre-emergence application of Metribuzin 500 g ai ha-1 + hand weeding (HW) at 70, 100 and 140 days after planting (DAP) recorded better results in terms of ginger growth and rhizome yield.

“…Intercropping is the cultivation of two or more crops simultaneously in the same land that provides the possibility of yield benefit in accordance with sole cropping [3]. Intercropping can be performed with different planting patterns, while facilitating the use of environmental resources such as light, moisture and space efficiently to accumulate more dry matter and enhance the growth.…”

Compared to sole cropping, intercropping systems can more efficiently use the existing resources which ultimately lead to improved plant growth and dry matter accumulation. So, most of the farmers in developing countries can follow the intercropping systems with high yielding crop combinations. The experiment was carried out at the Crop Farm of Eastern University, Sri Lanka in 2018 to investigate the growth and dry matter accumulation in okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L.) as influenced by different planting patterns under okra-cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp) intercropping in sandy regosol. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD). Treatments were okra as a sole crop (T1), cowpea as a sole crop (T2), alternative planting of okra and cowpea (T3), 60/150 cm paired row planting of okra with two rows and three rows of cowpea in between paired rows (T4 and T5) and 75/120 cm paired row planting of okra with two rows and three rows of cowpea in between paired rows (T6 and T7). Plant height, root length, fresh and dry weights of plant, leaf area, leaf area index, canopy width and cumulative yield of okra were higher in T5, while chlorophyll content showed no significant difference (P>0.05) with different planting patterns. The present study concluded that 60/150 cm paired row planting of okra with three rows of cowpea in between paired rows (T5) would be the most suitable planting system in sandy regosol to achieve better growth and dry matter in okra.
