- Intervention effect Sowing maize at low plant density (24000 plants/ha) gave higher groundnut pod yield/ha (2.147 and 2.077 ton) in the two seasons.
- Intervention effect Groundnut grown with maize harvested for fodder at low density (24000 plants/ha) had the highest pod yield/ha (2.482 and 2.304 ton) in both seasons.
- Association Maize plant density and groundnut pod yield were negatively related, following a linear equation.
- Association Linear regression indicated that one unit (12000 plants) increase in maize plant density decreased groundnut pod yield/ha by 0.410 and 0.368 ton/ha.
- Intervention effect Maximum green fodder (17.46 and 17.93 ton) was obtained with 100% maize (48000 plants/ha).
- Intervention effect Minimum green fodder (13.33 and 16.11 ton) was obtained at 50% maize density (24000 plants/ha).
- Intervention effect Maize harvested for grain without defoliation gave the highest grain yield/plant (154.2 and 162.6 g).
- Intervention effect Maize harvested for grain without defoliation gave the highest grain yield/ha (3.667 and 4.080 ton).
- Intervention effect Maize traits reached their maximum with intercropped 50% maize (24000 plants/ha).
- Intervention effect Maize grain yield/ha (4.46 and 4.78 ton) reached its maximum at full stand with harvested maize for grain without defoliation.
- Intervention effect Maximum LER (1.64 and 1.69) was obtained when maize harvested for fodder was intercropped with peanut at low density (24000 plants/ha).
- Intervention effect Maximum net return/ha (1696.2 and 836.9 US$) was recorded for maize harvested for grain with defoliation intercropped with peanut at 50% of full maize stand.
- Intervention effect Highest MAI (+830.5 and +889.3) was observed for maize harvested for fodder intercropped with peanut at 50% of full maize stand.
