- Abstract
The point of this exploration was to decide the benefit of intercropping Indigofera zollingeriana (Iz) and Pennisetum purpureum (Pp) under coconut manor dependent on dry matter yield. This experiment was performed using a completely randomized design (CRD) with six treatment combinations of settlement space, Iz with settlement space (1) 1.0 m x 0.5 m, (2) 1.0 m x 1.0 m, (3) 1.0 m x 1.5 m and Pp with base space (1) 1.0 m x 0.5 m, (2) 1.0 m x 0.75 m. The data were analyzed by analysis of variance (ANOVA) and continued by HSD test. Measured variables are land equivalent ratio (LER), crowding factor (K), aggressiveness (A), competition rate (CR) and actual yield loss (AYL). The results showed that the growing space treatments showed a significant difference (P < 0.01) in LER, K, A, CR and AYL as a function of dry matter yield. Iz was dominant in many combinations establishing intercropping patterns, Iz with 1.0 m x 1.0 m extension and Pp with 1.0 m x 0.75 m extension showed the highest LER and K based on dry matter yield. In conclusion, Indigofera zollingeriana dominated all the mixed growing schemes. Intercropping Iz with an extension of 1.0 m x 1.0 m and Pp with an extension of 1.0 m x 0.75 m were the most suitable LER and K depending on dry matter yield.
