Abstract
The present study was carried out to evaluate the productivity of maize soybean intercropping system and to identify the best combination that maximizes productivity of the system. Maize hybrid (BH540) at 44,444 plants ha -1 and three soybean varieties (AFGAT, Awassa-95 and Crawford) in a factorial combination of three planting densities (25%, 50% and 75%) of the recommended population density of soybean with the respective sole of each variety of component crops were arranged in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Sole cropped maize grain yield (3189.80 kg ha -1 ) was non-significantly greater than intercropped (2753.70 kg ha -
