Abstract
A field experiment was conducted during kharif 2018 to study the effect of different fodder maize-legume mixtures on productivity and profitability. The experiment comprised of 10 treatments of fodder maize and fodder legumes with three sole treatments of maize, cowpea and soybean, four intercropped treatments of maize-cowpea and maize-soybean in ratios of 1:1 and 2:1 and three mixed cropped treatments of maize- cowpea, maize-soybean (70% and 30%) and maize, cowpea and soybean (70%, 15%, 15%). Results revealed that system productivity and benefit-cost ratio of sole fodder maize were comparable to the intercropping of fodder maize with soybean in 2:1 row ratio.
