Abstract
Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.) is the sixth major grown crop next to wheat, rice, corn, barley and sorghum in the world. Pearl millet has a wider adaptability for different agroclimatic conditions and seasons, and it is even suitable for an intercropping system. Groundnut (Arachis hypogea L.) is Leguminous oilseed crop that can be cultivated as an intercrop with various crops for enhancement of productivity and efficient resource use. Based on the above facts, the present study was conducted at Research Farm of Centurion University of Technology and Management during summer season of 2022 to assess the effect of summer pearl millet + groundnut intercropping system on growth, productivity, and competitive ability of crops under south Odisha conditions. The treatments were, T1: Pearl millet (PM) sole (45cm x10cm), T2: Groundnut (GN) sole (30cm x 10cm), T3: PM (45cm x 10cm) + GN (1:1), T4: PM (45cm x 10cm) + GN (2:2), T5: PM (30cm x 10cm)+ GN (1:1), T6: PM (30cm x 10cm) + GN (2:2) , T7: PM (60cm x 10cm) + GN (1:1), T8: PM (60cm x 10cm) + GN (1:2) and T9: PM (60cm x 10cm)+ GN (1:3). The experiment was laid out in Completely Randomized Block Design (CRBD) and replicated thrice. The Results revealed that the maximum values of growth-attributing characters of both pearl millet and groundnut during sole cropping were observed. However, Among the yield attributes of pearl millet, 1000 grain weight showed a non-significant difference. Moreover, the treatment pearl millet (60 cm x 10 cm) + groundnut (1:1) obtained the highest yield attributing characters and yield. The results concluded that pearl millet and groundnut could be intercropped with 1:1 row proportion with pearl millet spacing of 45 cm x 10 cm in south Odisha conditions for a greater resource use, higher total productivity and economic benefit.
