Abstract
Farmers of Kandhamal district of Odisha are cultivating turmeric as sole crop where interspace are not properly utilised. Therefore, One experiment was conducted at RRTTS, G.Udayagiri, Kandhamal, Odisha to study the response of spacing and row proportions on growth and yield attributes of okra in turmeric + okra intercropping System during 2022-23 kharif. T1 - Sole turmeric at 30x 20 cm (Recommended), T2- Sole Oka 45x20 cm (Recommended),T3- Okra + Turmeric (1:1), T4- Okra + turmeric (1:2), T5- Okra + turmeric (1:3),T6- Okra + turmeric (1:4),T7- Okra + turmeric (2:1),T8- Okra + turmeric (2:2), T9- Okra + turmeric (2:3), T10- Okra + turmeric (2:4). Sole crop of turmeric fresh rhizome (119.2 q ha-1) and okra fresh fruit (72.8 q ha-1) produced the highest yield when compared with other intercropping systems. Turmeric + Okra Intercropping system (1:4) spacing and row proportion in T6 registered highest turmeric rhizome equivalent yield 149.9q ha-1over other intercropping system and B: C ration of 2.17 where as in sole crop of B: C ratio -1.43.
