Abstract

Maize (Zea mays L.) is the most suited kharif crop for the uplands of Chotanagpur. With the introduction of hybrid maize during recent years and the recommendation of 75-90 cm inter-row spacing under balanced fertilization, possibilities of growing legumes as intercrops were examined. Growing legumes as intercrops has a huge potentiality, as it not only increases the monetary return but also leaves behind a reserve of nitrogen for use by the succeeding rabi crop. Also legumes being a cover crop conserve the soil moisture received during the monsoon season which could be utilized by the rabi crop.
