Abstract
Biological etficiency and economics of different barley-based mtercropping systems were studied on a sandy clay loam soil at the University of Agriculture. Faisalabad during the year 1991-92. The intercropping systems comprised barley alone. barley + lentil, barley + gram, barley + Fenugreek (methra), barley +linseed and barley + wheat. Barley was sown in lOO cm spaced 4-row strips with 20 cm space between the rows of each strip. Three rows of each intercrop were sown between the barley strips. Although all the intercrops reduced grain yield of barley significantly compared to its monocropping, yet the additional yield obtained from each intercrop compensated more than the losses in barley production. The land equivalent ratio showed 28 to 45 % yield advantage of different intercropping systems over sole cropping. The highest yield advantage (45 %) was recorded in barley + lentil followed by barley + gram (38 %) against the minimum of 28 % in barley + methra and barley + wheat. Similarly, all the intercropping systems gave substantially higher net income ha ' over pure stand of barley. The maximum net income of Rs. 10367 ha' was obtained from barley + lentil intercropping system against the minimum of Rs. 6641 ha' from sole cropping. The results suggest that barley + lentil is the best intercro ing system in all res ects.
