Subject(s): Online resources: In: Journal of The Advances in Agricultural Researches 2009.v.14(1)Summary: Two field experiments were conducted at the experimental farm. Faculty of Agriculture, Damanhour, Alexandria University during 2004 and 2005 summer seasons, to study the competitive relationship for maize/sesame intercropping by different systems and sowing patterns Maize cultivar, Three way cross 310 and sesame variety Giza 32 were sown on April 20th and May 20th solely or Intercropped together simultaneously or in sequences under three systems i.e the same ridges, as well as alternative ridges (1:1) and(2:2). A split-plot expenmental design. With four replications was used. The three intercropping systems occupied the main plots. while the eight sowing pattern treatments were arranged In the sub-plots. The data obtained showed that maize was the dominant Intercrop component,While sesame was the dominated one under the three studied intercropping systems. The values of Land Equivalent Ratio (LER) and Relative Crowding Coefficient (RCC) were more than one for all studied intercropping treatments, indicating that a considerable Yield advantage was obtained. The values of (LER) were 1.38 and 1.37 in the first and second seasons, respectively, indicating that the productivity of the cultivated unit area increased by 37.5%, averaged over both seasons, when intercropping both crops together compared with sale sowing of both crops.
