Abstract

Field experiment conducted at Dapoli revealed that, niger is more remunerative intercrop in proso millet, as it enhanced the growth and yield of proso millet. The recorded 3:1 row ratio with the application of inorganic sources of nutrients higher yields. Results also revealed that in case of sole crop, uptake of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium was higher under proso millet than niger. In case of intercropping, higher total nitrogen uptake was observed in proso millet + niger in 1:2 row ratio. Similarly, total phosphorus and potassium uptake was higher in proso millet + niger intercropping in 3:1 row ratio.
