The biological intercrop relationship of wheat-methra intercropping systems comprising four rows of wheat + one row of methra, four rows of wheat + two rows of methra, four rows of wheat + three rows of methra and four rows of wheat + four rows of methra, was studied against sole wheat and sole methra on sandy clay loam soil. Wheat was planted in four rows strips, 100 cm apart with a 20 cm space between the rows. One, two, three and four rows of methra were grown in between wheat strips. The various yield components of wheat like number of fertile tillers per unit area, number of grains per spike and grain weight per spike, were affected significantly by the various intercropping systems. Intercropping of one, two, three and four rows of methra in foilr rows of wheat strips, decreased the wheat yield by 4.43, 7.77,8.49 and 7.88 q ha", respectively. However, at the cost of this much reduction in wheat yield an additional harvest of 2.21, 2.81, 3.00 and 2.4 q ha-1, of methra seed was obtained by intercropping one, two, three and four rows of methra, respectively, which compensated much more than the losses in wheat production.
