Abstract
An experiment was conducted during 1989-91 on the association of pigeonpea [Cujcvrus cajan (L.) Millsp.] as an intercrop in sunflower (Helianfl~us annuus L.) and pearl millet [Petmiseturn glaucurn (L.) Br. emend. Stuntz] in 2 : 1 row proportion in dryland watershed under farmers. management practices. The highest monetary returns (Rs 5,723ha), land-equivalent ratio (1.2.3) and benefit :cost ratio (1.24) were abtained in the intercropping system of sunflower + pigeonpea in 2 : 1 row proportion. The intercropping of pearl millet + pigeonpea in 2 : 1 row proportion was found productive but not economical (Rs 3,743ha). The sole cropping of sunflower and pigeonpea gave Rs 4,736 and Rs 4,699ha monetary returns respectively.
