Abstract:
The prospectus of sequential intercropping of cassava, planted in paired
row with groundnut/cowpea and mixed row intercropping with groundnut+redgram
was studied in a field trial. Groundnut and cowpea was successful as a Kharif
intercrop. The Rabi intercrops sown in sequence to Kharif intercrop failed to give
economic yield. Mixed row intercropping of cassava with groundnut + redgram gave
the highest benefit : cost ratio followed by cassava+groundnut. None of the intercrops
affected the cassava yield.
