Abstract
SUMMARY: Field experiments on crop compatibility and spatial arrangements in sorghum were conducted at the Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi in irrigated conditions in 1976 and 1978. Grain yield of sorghum increased when grown in association with the legumes greengram, groundnut, grain and fodder cow peas and soya bean, compared with sole sorghum. Planting of sorghum in paired rows (30:90 cm) with two rows of intercrop in the 90 cm space produced maximum yields of sorghum and intercrops.
