“…However, the higher ether extractable fat yield was recorded in BNH intercropped with cowpea (3.33 q/ha) followed by maize intercropped with cowpea (2.77 q/ha). Similar kind of higher ether extractable fat yield in Napier bajra hybrid intercropped with cowpea was also reported by Hindoriya et al, (2019). Among the different treatments, higher crude fibre content was recorded in sole sorghum (34.17 %) followed by sorghum intercropped with cowpea (32.05 %) and maize (31.9 %) while lower values were recorded with sole cowpea (27.83 %) and BNH intercropped with cowpea (27.88 %) (Table 2).…”

“…However significantly lower green and dry fodder yields were observed with sole fodder cowpea (252.33 and 49.96 q/ha, respectively) might be due to lower fibre content and higher moisture content. Hindoriya et al, (2019) also found similar kind of higher yields with Napier bajra hybrid intercropped with cowpea. The results of the present study are in conformity with findings of Anita et al, (2015) and Aulakh et al, (2012).…”

“…The higher total protein yield was recorded by combination of NBH with cowpea over other treatment due to the higher dry matter yield of this combination. Hindoriya et al (2019) revealed that in Indo-Gangetic plain combination of perennial NBH grass intercropping with cowpea have the greater potential to produce higher dry fodder yield as well as good quality fodder and yearly availability of green fodder. Baghdadi et al (2016) observed that cereal-legume based intercropping produce greater CP yield than sole crop.…”

The present study was conducted to evaluation of production potential of different forage crops commonly gown by farmers. The experiment was carried out in randomized complete block design with eight treatments and three replications at research farm of Agronomy Section, ICAR-NDRI, Karnal (Haryana). Among eight treatments, two perennial forage crops napier bajra hybrid(NBH), guinea grass cultivated sole as well as intercropping with cowpea and four seasonal fodder crops (cowpea, sorghum, baby corn and maize) were tested for their physio-morphological, biomass yield responses and economic efficiency. Experimental results showed that among the different forage crops significantly highest green as well as dry fodder yield were revealed from NBH intercropped with cowpea 63.79 and 11.95 t/ha green biomass fodder yield (GBY) and dry fodder yield respectively;which were found at par with sole NBH treatment (60.69and11.68 t/ha GBY and DFY). Amongs the different forage crops lowest GBY and DFY 33.1and 5.68 t/ha was produced by baby corn and cowpea respectively. The magnitude of the yield advantage was observed maximum and in the tune of 20.69% with guinea intercropped with cowpea against sole guinea. Highest net return was obtained from dual purpose baby corn (¹ 1.60 lakh/ha) with B: C ratio (5.26) and economic efficiency (¹ 2471/ha/day), followed by in NBH intercropped with cowpea. Based on the study, it is clearly indicated that dual purpose baby corn followed by NBH + cowpea intercropping could be feasible option for increasing the overall productivity of dairy farmers in Indo-Gangetic plains and elsewhere similar conditions prevails.

“…Snapp et al (2005) also found that legumes reduce the uptake of heavy metals from soil. The positive effect of legumes on soil fertility and a higher productivity of crops grown with them in a mixture are well known (Singh et al, 2019;Tamta et al, 2019). The green matter obtained from legumes Heavy metal content in green matter of field pea and spring triticale mixtures and their usage determination as green fodder for animals and cereal mixtures helps provide additional valuable animal feed (Manoj et al, 2021).…”
