Abstract
The experiment was carried out is the Regional Agricultural Research station, Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI), Rahmatpur, Barisal during two consecutive rabi seasons of 2007-2008, and 2008-2009 to select suitable vegetable for intercropping with groundnut. Monoculture produced the highest yield of individual crops. However all the intercropped and treatments involves red amaranth, spinach, coriander were found agronomically feasible and economically profitable. Results also showed that the highest groundnut equivalent yield 2.76 t/ha, LER 1.67 and the highest gross return of Tk. 74700 /ha were obtained from the intercropping treatment of one row of red amaranth in between two normal rows of groundnut. The highest net return of Tk. 60500/ha and benefit cost ratio 5.29 were also obtained from the same treatment.
