| Abstract | ||
| Two field experiments were carried out at El-Serw Agric. Res. Station, Domiatta Governorate, during 1998/1999 and 1999/2000 seasons, to study the effect of intercropping systems and different weed control treatments on growth, yield and yield components of faba bean (cv. Giza 3) and sugar beet (cv. Ceres poly) and faba bean. A split plot design with four replications was adopted. It was evident that (a4) a1 + faba bean on 60 cm between hill intercropping significantly increased No. of pods/plant, No. of branched/plant and 100-seed weight than other two intercropping systems (on 20 and 40 cm between hills) and decreased in seed yield ardab/fad. While monoculture of faba bean produced the highest means of all characters study than the other three intercropping system (i.e. a2, a3 and a4). On the other hand, (a4) a1 + faba bean on 60 cm between hill significantly increased all characters study except fresh top yield ton/fad in the second season only than the other two systems (a2 and a3). Whereas, monoculture gave the highest values of yield and its components of sugar beet as compared to the intercropping systems. The highest seed yield of faba bean was obtained with the intercropping systems of (a2): a1 + faba bean on 20 cm between hill, compared with the other intercropping systems. The obtained results show that yields and its components of both crops were increased proportioned with using weed control of hand weeding. The highest value of LER was obtained with intercropping faba bean and sugar beet at (a2) a1 + faba bean on 20 cm between hills, but for sugar beet the highest value was obtained at (a4): a1 + faba bean on 60 cm in both seasons. | ||
