| dc.description.abstract | A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of row proportions on the productivity of wheat + chickpea/safflower intercropping systems under rainfed conditions at Main Research Station, Dharwad during rabi 2000-2001. The experiment was laid out in a randomised block design with eleven treatments comprising of two cropping systems (wheat + chickpea/safflower), four row proportions (3:1, 4:2, 3:3 and 5:1) and their sole crops replicated thrice. The grain yield of wheat, chickpea and seed yield of safflower in sole cropping were significantly higher (1506, 860 and 1094 kg ha-') than in intercropping systems. Among the intercropping treatments, wheat + chickpea (4:2) row proportion recorded significantly higher wheat equivalent yield (2215 kg ha-') compared to sole wheat (1510 kg ha-') and other intercropping systems. Significantly higher net returns of Rs. 11576 ha-' was obtained with wheat + chickpea (4:2) row proportion than the sole crop of wheat (Rs.7413 ha-'). This was followed by wheat + chickpea in 3:1 row proportion with net returns of Rs. 10225 ha-'. The intercropping treatment, wheat + chickpea (4:2) row proportion recorded significantly higher LER (1.23) and B:C ratio (2.32) than the sole crop of wheat (1.0 and 1.61, respectively). Among all the intercropping treatments studied, the results showed that wheat + chickpea with 4:2 row proportion and wheat + chickpea (3:1) row proportions were found to be most profitable intercropping systems in transitional tract of Dharwad under rainfed conditions | en_US |
