Abstract

Compared to sole cropping, intercropping systems can more efficiently use the existing resources which ultimately lead to improved plant growth and dry matter accumulation. So, most of the farmers in developing countries can follow the intercropping systems with high yielding crop combinations. The experiment was carried out at the Crop Farm of Eastern University, Sri Lanka in 2018 to investigate the growth and dry matter accumulation in okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L.) as influenced by different planting patterns under okra-cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp) intercropping in sandy regosol. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD). Treatments were okra as a sole crop (T1), cowpea as a sole crop (T2), alternative planting of okra and cowpea (T3), 60/150 cm paired row planting of okra with two rows and three rows of cowpea in between paired rows (T4 and T5) and 75/120 cm paired row planting of okra with two rows and three rows of cowpea in between paired rows (T6 and T7). Plant height, root length, fresh and dry weights of plant, leaf area, leaf area index, canopy width and cumulative yield of okra were higher in T5, while chlorophyll content showed no significant difference (P>0.05) with different planting patterns. The present study concluded that 60/150 cm paired row planting of okra with three rows of cowpea in between paired rows (T5) would be the most suitable planting system in sandy regosol to achieve better growth and dry matter in okra.
不同电镀方式对秋葵-豇豆生长和干物质积累的影响间作
与单作相比,间作制度可以更有效地利用现有资源,最终促进植物生长和干物质积累。因此,发展中国家的大多数农民可以采用高产作物组合的间作制度。本试验于2018年在斯里兰卡东部大学作物农场进行,研究了沙质土壤中不同种植模式下秋黄豆(Vigna unguiculata L. Walp)间作对秋黄豆生长和干物质积累的影响。实验采用随机完全区组设计(RCBD)。处理分别为秋葵作单茬(T1)、豇豆作单茬(T2)、秋葵与豇豆交替种植(T3)、60/150 cm双行种植秋葵与两行和三行豇豆(T4和T5)、75/120 cm双行种植秋葵与两行和三行豇豆在双行之间(T6和T7)。T5秋葵株高、根长、鲜干重、叶面积、叶面积指数、冠层宽度和累积产量均高于T5,叶绿素含量差异不显著(P>0.05)。本研究认为,黄秋葵60/150 cm双行种植,双行间作3行豇豆(T5)是黄秋葵在砂质土壤中生长和干物质较好的最适宜种植制度。
