Intercropping Pearl Millet and Soybeans at Various Row Spacings, Seeding Rates, and Cropping Patterns
Abstract
dc:descriptionA study was conducted to evaluate the influence of intercropping pearl millet (Pennisetum typhoides (Burm. F.) Stapf and C. E. Hubb.) and soybeans (Glycine max (L.) Merr.), a nitrogen fixing species, at various row spacings, seeding rates, and cropping patterns. Pearl millet and soybeans were grown at three row spacings (25, 51, 76 cm), three seeding rates (11, 22, and 34 kg/ha), and three cropping patterns: PM--Pearl millet seeded in a pure stand; SB + PM--Pearl millet and soybeans seeded in alternate rows; SPM--Pearl millet and soybeans in the same row.
