A field experiment was conduced at Cropping Systems Research Centre, Gujarat Agricultural University, Navsari during 1979-1980 to 1981-1982. Recommended seed rates of two crops were mixed in different ratios of wheat and mustard (50:50, 66.7:33.3, 75:25 and 83.3:16.7 per cent) and wheat rows alternated with different number of mustard rows (1:1, 3:2, 6:2 and 10:2) were compared with sole crops of wheat and mustard. The highest wheat equivalent (20.8 q ha¹) LER (1.59) and gross retums (6243 Rs/ha) were obtained when wheat and mustard seeds were mixed in ratio of 75:25 per cent which was similar to alternate rows (10:2 ratio) Thus a lower population of mustard in wheat either mixed or grown in rows gave the maximum profit.
