Author(s): R. Poddar, S. Kumar and R. Kundu
Abstract: To find out the suitable intercropping system and its’ impact on soil nutrient status, a field experiment was carried out with chickpea along with three intercrop i.e. coriander, fenugreek and fennel in randomized block design at CCS Haryana Agricultural University. The result reveals that Chickpea + fennel (4:2) row ratios provide the best system in terms of economics benefit but was not so much significant variation were observed in respect of different soil physico-chemical properties due to different intercropping system. Highest nutrient uptake was noticed in sole cultivation of chickpea than cultivated in intercropping system.
