| dc.description.abstract | A field experiment was conducted to study the optimum row proportion, optimum sowing time of maize and economics of maize with field pea intercropping system. It was laid out in RCBD with three replications during kharif 2015 at farmer’s field in Lokur, village Dharwad district of Karnataka. There were nine treatments consisting of two planting patterns i.e., sowing of maize within and between the rows of maize in field pea with four dates of sowing for maize. Simultaneous sowing of maize with field pea recorded significantly higher grain yield (4,459 kg ha 1) and stover yield (6,481 kg ha 1) compared to other intercropping treatments and was on par with when maize sown between the rows one week after sowing of field pea (4,297 kg ha 1). Higher maize equivalent yield (5,896 kg ha 1) and land equivalent ratio (1.23) was recorded when maize sown between the rows two weeks after sowing of field pea and was on par with sowing between rows simultaneously and one week after sowing of field pea in maize with field pea intercropping treatments. Whereas, sole maize realised higher grain yield (4,719 kg ha 1) and stover yield (6,738 kg ha 1). Among the intercropping treatments, when maize was sown between the rows three weeks after sowing of field pea recorded higher green pod yield (1,592 kg ha-1) compared to other intercropping treatments and was on par with maize sown between the rows two weeks after sowing of field pea (1,569 kg ha 1). However, sole field pea recorded significantly higher green pod yield (3,321 kg ha 1). Significantly higher net returns (` 47,636) and B:C ratio (2.36) were realised when maize was sown two weeks after sowing of field pea compared to other intercropping treatments except maize when sown between the rows simultaneously and one week after sowing of field pea. | en_US |
