A field experiment was carried out during kharif, 2015-16 to evaluate the baby corn based intercropping systems under varying crop geometry. The experiment was laidout in split plot design and replicated thrice. The treatments consisted of three crop geometry levels viz., S1 (45 cm x 20 cm), S2 (60 cm x 15 cm) and S3 (90 cm x 10 cm), and four intercropping practices, viz., C1 (Sole baby corn), C2 (Baby corn + Coriander), C3 (Baby corn + Amaranthus) and C4 (Baby corn + Fenugreek). The results revealed that the cropping indices viz., baby corn equivalent yield (BEY), land equivalent ratio (LER) and income equivalent ratio (IER) of baby corn were significantly influenced by crop geometry levels and intercropping systems. Area time equivalent ratio (ATER) of baby corn was not significantly influenced by crop geometry levels but intercropping has significant influence on area time equivalent ratio.
