Abstract

A field experiment was conducted at Oilseeds Experiment Station: indivanam during kharif 1983 to study the effect of intercropping, spacing and straw mulching in the control of ground leaf miner. The results indicated that intercropping grou- dnut with cowpea or blackgram at 3:1 ratio was beneficial in reducing the leaf miner incidence as well as in increasing the income. The paddy straw mulching and adopting closer spacings though reduced the incidence did not fetch increased income.
