Abstract:

The field experiment was carried out at Bako Agricultural Research Center, during 2017 with the objectives of evaluating the effect of maize-soybean intercropping and blended NPS on yields and yield traits of the component crops. The experiment was laid out in RCBD with three replication in factorial combination of three soybean planting densities (25% (125, 000), 50% (250,000) and 75% (375,000)) and four fertilizer rate (0, 50, 100 and 150 kg ha-1). Maize (BH 546), and Soybean (Didesa) varieties were used. Interaction had highly significantly (p
