Increasing Yield of Colored Rice through Rice-Peanut Intercropping under Aerobic Irrigation Systems | Chapter 1 | Research Advances and Challenges in Agricultural Sciences Vol. 1

 An raised yield of cereal crops, such as maize and edible grain, can be obtained through intercropping them with edible part of plant crops, such as peanut, soybean, and mungbean. In supplement series, public of the main crops, such as rice, is the particularly same middle from two points intercropping and monocropping systems, but in the replacement succession of intercropping, it becomes only 50%. On average, seed yield per clump of rice plants mature under aerobic irrigation systems was raised by intercropping with peanut two together under additive and substitute series of intercropping systems. Under supplement series, relay-establishiing (adding) individual row of peanut between double rows of rose rice was erect to significantly increase grain yield of crimson rice per clump or per unit extent, mainly on account of increases in panicle number per clump, filled-grain number per panicle, and pressure of 100 grains or harvest index. Under replacement series, still, intercropping black edible grain with peanut under 2:2 row bulk resulted insignificant competition between dirty rice and peanut plants, developing in lower grain yield of the evil rice in intercropping than in monocropping systems, if they were fertilized only accompanying NPK fertilizers. However, application of basic and biofertilizer containing arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), apart from NPK fertilizers, significantly increased piece yield of the black rice, happening in significantly bigger grain yield of the intercropped than the monocropped black edible grain plants. Therefore, maintenance of additive intercropping of rice accompanying legume crops under aerobic irrigation plans could be a better choice to increase edible grain yield per unit area.
