Abstract: Field experiment was conducted on Research farm, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalay, Raipur during summer 2016 to study the response of drip fertigation intra row seeding of legume on growth, yield attributes and yield of summer maize. Experiment was laid in strip plot design with six vertical drip fertigation and intra row cowpea and three horizontal planting geometry with eighteen treatments. Drip fertigation 125% RDF + intra row cowpea with 60 x 20 cm planting geometry was found to be highest yielding among all treatments. growth characters like plant height, stem girth no of leaves plant-1, LAI, leaf area CGR, RGR was found to be highest in drip fertigation 125%RDF and cowpea. Similarly planting geometry 60 x 20 cm was found to be the best in all these characteristics except LAI and light intensity in which 30 x 20 cm was found to be the best. All yield attributes like no of cob length, cob diameter, no of grains per cob,100 grain weight were found to be highest in drip fertigation 125%RDF and cowpea and among planting geometry 60 x 20 cm was found the best.
