- Intervention effect Intercropped maize yield increased significantly up to 100% RDN.
- Intervention effect Intercropped sorghum yield increased only up to 75% RDN.
- Intervention effect Intercropped pearl millet yield increased only up to 50% RDN.
- Intervention effect Maize intercropping reduced soybean yield 33.6%.
- Intervention effect Sorghum intercropping reduced soybean yield 37.9%.
- Observation Soybean equivalent yield and economic indicators were highest with maize at 100% RDN.
- Observation Land equivalent ratio, crowding coefficient and intercropping advantage were greatest with maize.
- Observation Pearl millet and sorghum had higher aggressivity and competitive ratio than maize.
- Recommendation The authors suggested 25% less N fertilizer for sorghum as soybean intercrop.
- Recommendation The authors suggested 50% less N fertilizer for pearl millet as soybean intercrop.
