Author(s): SC Mohapatra and S Behera
Abstract: Four legume field crops was taken in the interspaces of three popular fruit tree crops and one silvi tree during rainy season of 2015, 2016 & 2017. The productivity, profitability and change in soil fertility status was studied. The mean data of three years experimentation revealed that Arhar (Cajanus cajan) was the best legume intercrop with net return of Rs. 36,920, Rs. 32,920 and Rs. 18,520 per hectare per year, when intercropped with Mango (Mangifera indica) + Eucalyptus hybrid (Eucalyptus globulus), Jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) + Eucalyptus hybrid (Eucalyptus globulus) and Cashewnut (Annacardium occidentale) + Eucalyptus hybrid (Eucalyptus globulus) having benefit cost ratio (BCR) 2.48, 2.32 and 1.74 respectively, followed by Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata).
