A field experiment was conducted on medium black soil to study the production potential and economics of Bt. cotton based intercropping system under rain fed condition at Dry Farming Research Station, Junagadh Agricultural University, Targhadia, Gujarat during kharif- 2015-16 to 2018-19. The experiment comprising of eight treatments with four replications laid out in randomized block design. In pooled results, the treatment inter cropping of cotton + cowpea(T8) produced significantly higher MCEY (2815 kg/ha), which was statistically at par with treatment T6 (cotton + sesame), T3 (cotton + green gram), T4 (cotton + black gram) and T2 (cotton + groundnut).Among the intercrops, maximum main product yield (1074 kg/ha) was recorded with treatment T5 (cotton + gum guar) followed by cotton + soybean (896 kg/ha) and cotton + groundnut (884 kg/ha), whereas T3 (cotton + green gram) produced minimum seed yield (388 kg/ha) with cotton. Among the intercrops, gum guar recorded maximum by product yield 2609 kg/ha followed by groundnut haulm yield 2534 kg/ha and minimum by product yield 608 kg/ha recorded by green gram as intercrop with cotton.
