Abstract
A field experiment was conducted during the rainy season of 1991 to 1993 at Diphu to study the feasibility of intercropping greengram (Phaseolus radiatus L.), blackgram (P. mungo L.) and sesame (Sesamum indiclun L.) in pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Milsp.] under different seeding methods in the hills slope (20%). Intercropping did not affect the grain yield of pigeonpea, but it increased the total productivity in terms of pigwnpea equivalent. Pigwnpea alone recorded the lowest pigeonpea equivalent, which was found significantly inferior to the intercropped treatments. Among the seeding methods evaluated, accommodation of 1 or 2 rows for blackgram and greengram proved better than that of sesame. Accommodation of 1 row greengram in normally spaced (75 cm x 30 cm) was found the most remunerative in terms of net return and benefit : cost ratio.
