“…It could also be due to reduced interspecific and intraspecific competition between component crops in this intercropping system. In agreement with this research different authors [47,48], confirmed that intercropping significantly affected the number of primary branches. There was a significant difference in the number of primary branches by cropping systems.…”

A two-year (2018-2020) experiment was conducted to determine the optimum intercropping pattern and varietal combination and the compatibility of potato and faba bean in intercropping system. The experiment was arranged in a randomized complete block design of three combinations (Gera×Hachalu, Gera×Dosha, and Gera×Dagim) and four intercropping patterns (1×1, 1×2, 2×1, 2×2) with a 3x4 factorial arrangement and sole crops of faba bean (Hachalu, Dosha, and Dagim) and potato(Gera) as a control. The highest grain yield per hectare (1669.2 kg) was obtained from the Gera×Dosha combination and the intercropping pattern of 1×2 followed by 2×2 with no significant difference between them. The highest marketable tuber yield per hectare (13627 kg) was recorded by the interaction of Gera×Dosha with 2×1 (two rows of potatoes with one row of faba bean) intercropping pattern. This two-year experiment indicated that the best combination of potato and faba bean is Gera with dosha. The best intercropping system is 2x2 (two rows of faba beans with two rows of potatoes). For the growers who want potatoes as the main crop, 2 x1(two rows of potatoes with one row of faba bean) is best and compatible. For the farmers who want to grow faba beans as a main crop 1x2 (one row of potatoes with two rows of faba beans) intercropping system is best. It can be concluded that potato and faba beans are compatible with the intercropping system and farmers can employ different intercropping systems based on their requirements.

Background: Karnataka is predominantly known for cluster bean production. The evidences claims that the cluster bean production is not a profitable option and has many constraints, which hinders farmers to take up this enterprise. The current study aims to analyze the growth in area, to forecast seed demand and to work out the economics of cluster bean production in Karnataka. Methods: The current study was based on the field survey conducted in Karnataka during 2019-20, to collect the primary data from cluster bean entrepreneurs. The study has also used secondary data for analysis. Four major districts in Karnataka were selected for the study, based on the maximum area and highest production. From each district, 30 farmers were randomly selected for collection of primary data, constituting a total of 120 farmers. The Compound Annual Growth Rate and cost-returns techniques were employed for data analysis. Result: The study indicated that Karnataka has registered a declined trend of 3.12 per cent per annum and the total estimated area under cluster bean would be 2,720 ha during 2021-22. Hence, the seed industry should cater seed demand to the tune of 544 quintals for the said period. Total cost of cultivation was worked out to be ₹ 35,176 per acre. The study emphasize that this enterprise provides higher gross and net returns to the tune of ₹ 70,851 and ₹ 35,675 per acre, respectively, with the Benefit-cost ratio of 2.01, indicating its profitability. Lack of availability of High Yielding Varieties/hybrid seeds and high wage rate were the major constraints notified in cluster bean enterprise.

“…Pigeonpea when grown during the rainy season as a sole crop, with less fertile soil, results in poor yield. Modification of few agro-techniques can play a significant role to enhance the productivity and profitability through efficient utilization of land, moisture, and solar energy (Kumar et al, 2016;Rajput and Bhadouriya, 2019).…”

An experiment was conducted during the rainy (kharif) season of 2018 and 2019 at research farm of College of Agriculture Tripura, Lembucherra, West Tripura, to identify a viable agro-technique for improving productivity of medium-duration pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp]. Treatments comprised all possible combination of no nipping (N0 ), nipping @ 45 days after sowing (DAS) (N45), nipping @ 60 DAS (N60) and nipping @ 90 DAS (N90) with row-to-row spacing @ 45 cm (S45), 60 cm (S60), 75 cm (S75) and 90 cm (S90). The results showed that, early nipping (45 to 60 DAS) and wider spacing (75 to 90 cm) was very much effective for good crop canopy and productivity (leaf area index of 5.36), which can be addressed as a solution to the marginal pigeonpea farmers of Tripura for better growth (20.53 nos. of primary branches), yield (1.15 t/ha) and economic returns (37.89 × 103 `/ha).
