Effect of Maize and Chickpea Intercropping under the Different Row Ratios on Air Temperature and Vapoure Pressure Profile in Crop Canopy

An experiment was laid out to study the effect of maize and chickpea intercropping under different row ratios on air temperature vapoure pressure profile in crop canopy at Agronomy farm, Bansilal Amritlal College Agriculture, Anand Agricultural University, (Gujarat), India during rabi season year 2021-2022. The soil experimental field loamy sand. a randomized block design with six treatments replicated four times. details are T1: Sole maize, T2: chickpea, T3: Maize paired row, T4: + (1: 1), T5: (1 : 2), T6: (2 2). During early growth inversion observed because crops short. Air lowest ground level, increase height increase. At upper is lower than active transpiration by dense foliage down temperature. lapse vapour observed. Highest value ground, but an decreased. In case within canopy, strong gradient weak canopy.
