Study of Differences in Planting Time on Yield of Peanut by Intercropping With the Sorghum Planting Model in Dry Land

Sorghum has the potential to support diversification efforts and food security. Sorghum production needs to be increased through the selection of varieties and appropriate cropping systems. Intercropping system is expected to be able to support government programs in strengthening national food security through increasing land-use efficiency. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the growth and yield of three varieties of sorghum intercropped with peanuts and to determine the varieties of sorghum that gave the highest yield in the intercropping system with groundnuts. This experiment was carried out in Sandik village, Batu Layar, West Lombok from December 2019 to March 2020. The design used was a factorial randomized complete block design (RCBD), with the first factor being intercropping sorghum-groundnut and sorghum monocropping, while the second factor was sorghum varieties, namely Numbu, Super 1, and Bioguma. Each treatment was repeated 3 times. The results showed that sorghum intercropped with groundnuts had better growth and yields than sorghum is grown in monocropping. The Numbu variety gave the best yields both in monocropping and intercropping systems, while Super 1 and Bioguma showed a significant increase in yields when grown in intercropping compared to monocropping. Super 1 and Bioguma varieties had a positive response to the intercropping system, with a significant increase in dry matter weight in Super 1 by 52.84% compared to monocropping. Likewise, a significant response was also shown by Numbu variety in the intercropping system, with a 47.66% increase in the dry matter weight of the plant when compared to monocropping.

“…Peanuts planted before planting sorghum in this intercropping system gave the highest yields compared to planting simultaneously or after planting sorghum. Similar results were also shown by [11]. The insertion of 1 row of sorghum in every row of peanuts gave the lowest dry matter formation (139.1 g/m 2 ) compared to the insertion of 1 row of sorghum in every 2 rows of peanuts (204.5 g/m 2 ), in every 3 rows of peanuts.…”

As a source of carbohydrates, sorghum can be used as an alternative for food diversification. To introduce more sorghum is by intercropping with peanuts without reducing the production of this main crop. This experiment aims to determine the pattern of plant arrangement and the best planting time in the peanut-sorghum intercropping system; indicated by the best growth and yield of peanut and sorghum plants. The experiment was conducted in Papak Village, Gangga, North Lombok by using a factorial randomized block design with 2 treatment factors, sowing time and plant arrangement. Sowing time of peanuts was carried out 14 days before, at the same time and 14 days after sorghum, while plant arrangement consisted of: intercropping of 1 row of sorghum on 1 row of peanuts, 2 rows of peanuts, 3 rows of peanuts, and 4 rows of peanuts; Overall, this experiment consisted of 12 treatment plots, replicated 3 times, so there were 36 experimental plots. The results show that sowing peanuts before sowing sorghum gave the highest yield of peanut and plant arrangement with 1 row of sorghum in every 4 rows of peanuts showing the best yield in this peanut-sorghum intercropping.

“…However, because its high adaptability to dry growing conditions and its high AMF association potentials, then an alternative for growing sorghum in dry land is by growing it in multiple cropping with legume crops to form sorghum-legume intercropping systems. Additive intercropping of peanut between rows of sorghum in dry land was found to significantly increase harvest index of sorghum as well as increase sorghum grain yield per plant [5]. Relay-planting peanut between rows or double-rows of red rice was also found to increase leaf green-levels and grain yield of red rice under aerobic irrigation systems [6].…”

Sorghum is getting popular because of its potential use as food, feed, and bio-ethanol production. However, there are competing interests for growing sorghum because rice and maize are two most important crops in Indonesia, so intercropping could be a solution. This study aimed to examine the effects of additive intercropping several varieties of sorghum with soybean grown during a dry season on permanent raised-beds mostly used to grow rice. The experiment was established on farmers’ paddy fields in West Lombok (Indonesia) from June to September 2022, which was arranged according to Split Plot design, with two treatment factors, namely sorghum varieties (V1= Numbu, V2= Samurai-1, V3= Super-1) and intercropping (I0= monocropped sorghum, I1= additive intercropping with soybean). The results indicated that additive intercropping with soybean relay-planted between rows of sorghum significantly increased growth and yield of sorghum but sorghum varieties showed significant differences only in weight of 100 grains. However, there was a significant interaction effect on leaf number prior to anthesis and at seed filling stage and growth rate of leaf number. Among the varieties, Numbu showed a significant and highest increase (16%, equivalent to 477 kg/ha) in dry grain yield due to additive intercropping with soybean.
