The experiment was laid out in strip plot scheduling design with twelve treatment combination and replicated thrice. The results found that Intercropping among the irrigation scheduling plant height Leaf area index Crop growth rate Dry Growth Yield LER matter production and also grain and straw yield were recorded higher in irrigation scheduling of Irrigation water Cumulative pan evaporation ratio upto PI thereafter Article Info IW CPE ratio and lower in scheduling irrigation at IW CPE ratio upto PI thereafter IW CPE ratio1. Whereas intercrop practices rice alone recorded a higher crop growth Accepted parameters like plant height LAI CGR DMP and yield of aerobic rice. Whereas rice 20 September 2020 green gram intercropping system noted in lower growth parameters and yield of aerobic Available Online rice. However LER was higher in rice black gram intercropping system. 10 October 2020 Introduction percolation and evaporation.
