Abstract
To study of the eco-physiological aspects of Mung bean and corn intercropping an experiment was conducted. Treatment comprises the varieties of corn (260, 301 and 302) as main plot and intercropping ratios (Mung bean sole cropping, corn sole cropping, 25% corn + 75% Mung bean, 50% corn + 50% Mung bean and 75% corn + 25% Mung bean) as subplot. Intercropping was done as replacement series. Results indicated that varieties and intercropping ratios influenced significantly forage dry weight and fresh weight, total forage yield, land equivalent ratio (LER), crude protein, dry matter digestibility, soluble carbohydrate, neural detergent fiber, acid detergent fiber, ash. Intercropping of corn and Mung bean showed superiority rather sole cropping of both crops. Ideal forage should be contain lower acid detergent fiber and neural detergent fiber while, contain higher dry matter digestibility, crude protein, soluble carbohydrate, ash percent. Land equivalent ratio was higher than unit representing higher productivity of intercropping in comparison with sole cropping. Soil temperature was lower in intercropping, while soil moisture content was higher. The greatest soil nitrogen content was obtained in Mung bean sole cropping and the least soil nitrogen content was observed in corn sole cropping. The results suggest that legume forage is important crops in forage quality and soil fertility. In generals intercropping of corn and Mung been showed higher quantities and qualities productivity in composition of sole cropping.
