Abstract


The study revealed that irrigation at 0.6 IW/CPE ratio recorded maximum yields. Cassava raised as sole crop or as comrade cropping in groundnut recorded comparable tuber yield. Either sole groundnut or sesame or in combination with cassava as comrade crop did not alter the yield of groundnut and sesame. Raising groundnut as comrade cropping with cassava recorded higher LER. Coir waste applied at 10 tha" increased the tuber and groundnut pod yields.
