Abstract: A field experiment was conducted at experimental farm of AICRP for dryland Agriculture, V.N.M.K.V., Parbhani to study the effect of different intercropping systems on pigeonpea equivalent yield under various land configurations entitled “Performance of different land configuration under pigeonpea based intercropping systems” It was observed that pigeonpea equivalent yield were significantly affected due to different intercropping systems. Pigeonpea+greengram intercropping system (I2) tended to give the highest pigeonpea seed eqivalent yield (1832 Kg ha-1). Among different land configiration highest pigeonpea equivalent yield recorded by broad bed (1823 Kg ha-1) furrow followed by ridges and furrow (11759 Kg ha-1) and lowest recorded in flat bed sowing (1416 Kg ha-1). The gross monetary returns was influenced significantly due to different intercropping systems. Pigeonpea+greengram recorded maximum gross monetary returns than other intercropping system.
