e0“Pigeonpea + urdbean in paired row planting recorded significantly higher pigeonpea equivalent yield (3.57 t/ha), LER (1.81), water-use efficiency (4.96 kg ha/mm), production efficiency (12.01 kg/ha/day), NPK-uptake by pigeonpea, net return (148.63 x 103 ¹ /ha) and B:C ratio (4.84) than their intercropping in normal planting pattern, pigeonpea + sesame and pigeonpea + sorghum in both planting pattern.”

Other claims from this paper (15)
- Intervention effect Paired-row intercropping produced significantly higher pigeonpea-equivalent yield, LER, water use and production efficiency, and net return than normal-row intercropping and sole pigeonpea.
- Intervention effect Paired pigeonpea with urdbean and paired pigeonpea with sesame had higher benefit-cost ratios than sole pigeonpea.
- Intervention effect Paired pigeonpea plus urdbean reached 3.57 t/ha equivalent yield and exceeded comparison intercrops.
- Intervention effect Paired pigeonpea plus urdbean reached LER 1.81 and exceeded comparison intercrops.
- Intervention effect Paired pigeonpea plus urdbean reached production efficiency 12.01 kg/ha/day.
- Intervention effect Paired pigeonpea plus urdbean increased pigeonpea NPK uptake versus comparison intercrops.
- Intervention effect Paired pigeonpea plus urdbean reached net return 148.63 x 103 ¹ /ha.
- Intervention effect Paired pigeonpea plus urdbean reached benefit-cost ratio 4.84.
- Intervention effect Paired pigeonpea with urdbean or sesame increased nodule number and dry weight versus sole pigeonpea.
- Intervention effect Increasing fertilizer did not significantly increase equivalent yield in pigeonpea plus urdbean.
- Intervention effect Increasing fertilizer to RDF significantly increased equivalent yield in pigeonpea plus sesame.
- Intervention effect Increasing fertilizer to 125% RDF significantly increased equivalent yield in pigeonpea plus sorghum.
- Intervention effect Pigeonpea plus urdbean reduced soil bulk density and increased soil organic carbon and available N, P and K.
- Intervention effect Pigeonpea plus urdbean increased soil organic carbon and available N, P and K.
- Intervention effect Paired-row pigeonpea plus urdbean improved soil physico-chemical properties more than normal rows.
