Abstract:

Sugarcane-soybean intercropping pattern is gradually popularized and applied in China. Three years continuous (2009–2011) field experiments were conducted in South China Agricultural University, Guangzhou to investigate the effect of sugarcane-soybean intercropping systems on yield and major agronomic traits of sugarcane. Experiments with randomized block design included six treatments with two rates of N fertilizer (reduced nitrogen application, 300 kg ha–1; normal nitrogen application, 525 kg ha–1) and three cropping patterns [sugarcane monocropping, sugarcane-soybean (1:1) intercropping, sugarcane/soybean (1:2) intercropping]. The results showed that nitrogen rates had no effect on sugarcane yield and agronomic traits in 2009–2011. Compared with sugarcane monocropping, sugarcane-soybean intercropping obviously reduced sugarcane yield only in 2010, and no significant influence in sugercane yield in 2009, 2011 as well as average of the three years. Cropping patterns had no significant influence on plant height in 2009–2011. Compared with sugarcane monoculture, sugarcane-soybean intercropping obviously reduced the sugarcane millable stalks in 2009, significantly increased sugarcane stem diameter and yield per plant in 2011. Sugarcane yield had positive correlation with yield per plant, millable stalks and plant height. Sugarcane yield had highly significant positive correlation with yield per plant in sugarcane/soybean (1:2) intercropping (P<0.01). Sugarcane yield had notable correlation with millable stalks in sugarcane/soybean (1:2) intercropping under reduced nitrogen application (P<0.05). In conclusion, reduced nitrogen application and intercropping patterns had no negative influence on sugarcane agronomic traits in 2009–2011, and significant effect on sugarcane yield based on average values of the three years. Sugarcane-soybean intercropping with reduced nitrogen application is feasible in practice in consideration of saving cost and sustaining sugarcane yield.

Key words: Sugarcane-soybean intercropping;, Yield, Nitrogen, Plant height, Millable stalks
