Intercropping of Pulses in Coconut

Abstract

A field trial conducted during 1989 and 1990 in 40 year old coconut palms to evaluate the performance of different pulse crops as intercrops revealed that cowpea is the best suited and most remunerative intercrop and the next best being soybean and groundnut. However, intercropping in coconut with black gram and green-gram was not remunerative as they recorded poor yield.
