Abstract

                                Field experiments conducted during kharif seasons of 1986, 1987 and 1988 showed that intercropping of pearl millet and pigeonpea was better than raising pure'crops as indicased by higher LER. It was higher with 1:1 ratio of pearl milict and pigeonpea. But the net return was the highest with pure crop of pigeonpea. Among the intercropping system, the net return was the highest with 1:2 ratio with coir pith and was followed by 1:3 ratio without coir pith. The ratio of 1:2 can be recommended considering both the LER and net return.
