Abstract
To assess the best intercrop of pulses in sorghum and also to work out the economics and LER, experiments were conducted at Cotton and Millets Experiment Station, Kovilpatti from 1979 to 1982. As intercrop, lab-lab and redgram were found to reduce the grain yield of Sorghum at this tract while blackgram, greengram mnd cowpeas were found to have no depressing effect on the yield. Maximum LER, was recorded by the treatment sorghum + cowpea followed by sorghum blackgram with highest net return per hectare.
