Abstract


The influence of sorghum pulses intercropping system on the soil fertility status was investigated at the Cotton and Millet Experiment Station, Kovilpatti during Rabi 1982-83 under rainfed conditions. The results revealed that the soil fertility in terms of available N was significantly improved in the sole crop of pulses and intercrop of pulses with sorghum, as compated to solo crop of sorghum. The yield as well as the N uptake by sorghum grains were maximum under sorghum block gram inter cropping system.
