e0“The results of the experiment revealed that intercropping of maize (Zea mays L.) with cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.] has recorded significantly lower total weed density (5.92 No./m2), weed dry weight (6.21 g/ m2), higher WCE (66.97 %), lower WI (17.67 %), higher grain yield (5842 kg/ha) and stover yield (7035 kg/ha) but the higher MEY (8224 kg/ha) was recorded in maize + pole bean intercropping system.”
