Summary

Purpose: The small-holding farmers tend to follow traditional farming systems over sustainable systems of productivity. A strategy was devised to introduce an agricultural system that ensures sustainable yield production and restores diversity in the agroecosystem. The research trial was performed to evaluate the net productivity and economic viability of the sorghum and mungbean intercropping system using an integrated nutrient management strategy.Research Method: The study comprised both split and combined doses of nationally recommended organic and mineral sources of fertilizers using mungbean and sorghum as sole and intercrops in the following sequence of treatments; T0 = unfertilized, T1 = 100% compost, T2 = 100% farmyard manure, T3 = 50% N & 50% P2O5, T4 = 50% compost + 25% N &am
