| dc.description.abstract | Correlation analysis, Path analysis, ANOVA and ANCOVA were employed in this study. Fingermillet grain yield was noticed to be higher when grown with Madhuca latifolia, same tree species has recorded higher finger millet yield grown in its southern direction and at a 5 m distance compared to 2.5 m against other tree species. If a farmer wants grain and straw yield in the initial days he can think of intercropping with Madhuca latifolia, if he needs wood in the initial period Melia dubia may be preferred as it provides less yield for finger millet. Correlation analysis between wood volume and tree characters revealed that there was significant correlation between wood volume and GBH followed by bole height. Path analysis revealed that higher directs effects of GBH and bole height on wood volume. These two characters can be considered for selection of tree species for intercropping with fingermillet. Lower residual effect indicated better association with the tree characters on wood volume when grown with fingermillet as intercrop. ANCOVA carried out using tree characters as covariates (GBH and bole height) had less error mean sum of squares than ANOVA. Relative efficiency of ANCOVA over ANOVA was >1. This indicated that, adjustment to covariates ANCOVA will minimize the error component of analysis and is more precise than ANOVA in identifying actual fingermillet yield differences when grown as intercrop | en_US |
