Abstract

A field experiment was conducted at Lovely Professional University, Phagwara during Rabi season of 2020-21 & 2021-2022 to identify the effect of intercropping on growth and yield of wheat bed technology & to control Phalaris minor weed for higher overall productivity. There were 14 treatments that were intercropping consisting of wheat weed free & wheat weedy among gobhi sarson, african sarson, lentil, fenugreek, fennel and dill seeds. The grain yield, plant height of wheat varied significantly among different wheat+ Rabi crops. Wheat as sole crop gave significantly higher seed yield than that of all the wheat+ Rabi crops. The sole crop of wheat recorded higher total dry matter production, yield components and yield compared to the intercropping systems. Intercropping of wheat with fennel and dil seed reduce the count of Phalaris minor and increased the wheat grain yield as compared with other intercrops.
