Abstract
Under dryland condition the development of cropping systems for increasing cropping intensity assumed importance. Intercropping gives higher dependable gross return than the sole cropping, of either of the component crops (Singh and Jain 1984). Management practices for intercropping system differ substantially from that of monocropping, especially in wecd management (Maheswara Reddy el al. 1990). A herbicide suitable for onc component or intcrcropping system may not be suitable for the other. Breakdown of herbicides depends mainly on soil moisture and temperature (Yellamanda Reddy and Sankara Rcddi 1992). Information is lacking on suitable herbicide and optimum dose of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) + pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan L.) Millsp.] intercropping system under arid tropics. The present experi~ ment was conducted to explore the possibility of reducing the dose of herbicide by delaying its application.
