Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during November 2009 to April 2010 on intercropping of cowpea, linseed and coriander with wheat crop at the Agronomy Field Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh to evaluate the crop productivity of different intercrop combinations compared to their respective sole cropping. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with three intercrops and four sole crops treatment combinations assigned in three replications. Crop characteristics and yield of wheat reduced in intercropping treatments as compared to sole cropping of wheat. Among the intercropping treatments, the highest grain yield was found (1.596 t ha -1 ) in wheat + cowpea and the lowest grain yield (1.210 t ha-1) was found in wheat +linseed intercropping treatments. The seed yield of component crops reduced in intercropping treatments as compared to their sole crops. All the intercropping treatments gave higher wheat equivalent yield than their respective sole crops.
