Abstract

Background and Objectives: Intercropping is the planting of more than one plant in one land and growing season so that the plants should be the highest intimacy together in most growing season. Usually, the component species in Intercropping systems occupy different niches and thereby enhance the utilization of resources. Consequently, Intercropping improves the yields of the component crops. The Intercropping of a cereal with a legume is a preferred system for achieving higher food supply and reduced environmental feedback. So that, one of the way to achieving to sustainability in agriculture is multiple and Intercropping system. Material and Methods: A field experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block as a factorial arrangement with three replications in experimental farm of Agricultural Faculty of Shahid Chamran University of Ahwaz at 2015-2016 growing season. The first factor was two nitrogen fertilizer application includes control (no nitrogen fertilizer) and 40 Kg ha-1 nitrogen fertilizer and the second factor was eight planting patterns includes barley sole cropping, fenugreek sole cropping, fenugreek-barley Intercropping ratios includes 2: 1, 2: 2, 3: 1, 1: 3, as replacement series, 100% barley+20% fenugreek as additive series and mixed Intercropping. The measured traits includes: crude protein (CP), water soluble carbohydrate (WSC), ash percent, dry matter digestible (DMD), acid detergent fiber (ADF), Neutral detergent fiber (NDF), Intercropping dry matter yield, barley relative yield, fenugreek relative yield, and land equivalent ratio (LER). The plant density for barley was 375 plant m-2 and Zehak cultivar been used. The plant density for barley was 50 plant m-2 and endemic cultivar been used. The harvest operation achieved at April in barley dough stage. Results: The results of the experiment showed that the highest total dry matter (1277. 1 g m-2) and LER (1. 15) was obtained at 100% barley+20% fenugreek additive method. The highest crude protein, dry mater digestible (DMD) and ash percent were observed at fenugreek sole cropping treatment. The highest water soluble carbohydrate, NDF and fiber were found at barley sole cropping. Among treatments, 1: 3 barley-fenugreek had the highest crude protein. Also the nitrogen fertilizer increased crude protein, water soluble carbohydrate and dry matter digestible compared to control. But in ADF and NDF treatment, the control treatment had the highest value compared to nitrogen fertilizer. Conclusion: In general, the application of nitrogen fertilizer had significant effect on qualitative traits and with application of nitrogen fertilizer, barley crude protein, water soluble carbohydrate and dry matter digestible increased. Also, the fenugreek had the highest protein, DMD and Ash compared to barley. 100% barley-20% fenugreek had the highest (70. 4%) water soluble carbohydrate. It seems that the fenugreek in Intercropping caused to increased forage quality. Because with increasing in fenugreek ratio in Intercropping, the crude protein increased and the ADF decreased.
