Abstract

Limited information on agronomic management for successful production of short duration post-rainy season pigeonpea [Ca janus cajan (L.) Millsp.] following rainfed lowland rice (Oryza sativa L . ) necessitated that four different experiments on spatial arrangement and plant density, intercropping, ratooning and cropping pattern testing involving pigeonpea be conducted in the Philippines. In the spatial arrangement and plant density study, closer row spacing gave higher main crop grain yield. The best treatment combination was 0.30 m row spacing and 50 plants m-2. Grain, fodder and firewood yields of the ratoon crop were not affected by spacing and density
