Abstract
A field experiment was conducted at Agricultural College Farm, Dharwad, during rabi 1988 to study the performance of soybean with wheat under different row proportions. Intercropping of soybean with wheat affected the growth and yield of soybean significantly compared to sole soybean. Among different row proportions of wheat and soybean, total grain yield of soybean was significantly higher with 1 :2 and 3 : 1 proportions. Further, 1 : 2 (Rs. 6398/ha) and 3 :1 (Rs. 6314/ha) proportions have also recorded higher gross returns than the remaining treatments.
