Abstract
“Macaquinho” taro (T), “Lisa Preferida” parsley (A) or “Tipo Português” coriander (C) were studied in monocrop and intercrop system (TC and TA). Harvests of parsley were done on 81; 109; 150 and 196 DAS; of coriander, on 49 and 81 DAS, and of taro, on 196 DAP. For plant heights and fresh mass of aerial part of parsley, on four dates of harvest, it was observed that monocrop system was the best. Coriander plants TC system had 0.56 cm and 2.55 cm more in height, on the first and the second harvest, respectively, and 0.35 and 0.24 t ha-1 in fresh mass yield on the first harvest and on total, respectively. For taro, the highest yields were of plants under monocrop system, except to non-commercial rhizomes, which were in TC system. Land Equivalent Ratio of TA system was 1.15 and of TC system was 1.83. For taro producer, TA and TC systems, respectively, could induced gains per hectare of R$ 17,994.75 or of R$ 7,153.50. Intercrop was also positive for coriander producer with increase of R$ 16,101.85 ha-1. But, for parsley producer, the best option was monocrop system, with gross income of R$ 38,681.65 ha-1.

Diversos autores abordam a importância dos sistemas de cultivos múltiplos tanto como peça fundamental na manutenção de pequenas propriedades agrícolas, em países subdesenvolvidos, quanto como componente de sistemas agrícolas mais sustentáveis

Summary
O trabalho foi desenvolvido no horto de plantas medicinais da Universidade Federal do Mato Grosso do Sul, em Dourados, Estado do Mato Grosso do Sul, entre 28-8-2004 e 12-3-2005. Foram estudados o taro “Macaquinho” (T), a salsa “Lisa Preferida” (A) e o coentro “Tipo Português” (C), em cultivo solteiro e consorciado (TC e TA), arranjados no delineamento experimental de blocos casualizados, com cinco repetições. As parcelas da salsa e do coentro, em cultivo solteiro e consorciado, foram formadas por um canteiro contendo quatro linhas (25 cm entre linhas), com quarenta plantas por linha (5 cm entre plantas). Tanto no cultivo solteiro como no consorciado, foram formadas por um canteiro contendo duas linhas (50 cm entre linhas), com dez plantas por linha (20 cm entre plantas) (Figura 1)
