Introduction
Indices is using for the evaluation of various type of cropping
system to decide their ability and relative advantage .
Land uses efficiency
It tells us about the land area use by the crops .
Biological potential
It tells us about the crop yield in different cropping system.
Interference indices
It tells us about the act of hindering, obstructing, Preventing
movement among the different crops which is grown in a same land
.
Economic viability
Energy efficiency
if
If CLUI
1=land has not been left fellow
>1=specifaction of inter crop or relay crop
Where, I = 1, 2, 3NC,
NC = total number of crops grown by a farmer during the time period. T,
ai = area occupied by ith crop (months that the crop I occupied an area ai
T = time period under study (usually one year),
AO= Total cultivated land area available with the farmer for use during
the entire time period, T,
M= total number of fields temporarily available to the farmer for cropping
time period. T,
j=1, 2, 3.. M,
Aj=land area of jth field and
Tj= time period Aj is available
Where
Nk= total number of crops within a specific time period T.
AK = area occupied by the kth crop.
Ik= duration of kith crop.
Using this formula vegetable intensity index, rice intensity
field crops intensity index etc.
RYI =
district
RSI =
area of zone
area of the crop expressed as % of total cultivated
area of country
Biological potential
Crop Equivalent yields
Yields of different intercrops are converted into equivalent yield
of one crop based on price.
n
CEY =
(Yi . ei)
i=1
Where
Yi Yield of ith component
Ei Equivalent factor of ith component or price of ith crop
Relative Yield Total (de Wit and Van den Bergh, 1965)
Yield advantage is measured not only based on unit area but also
based on unit population. The use of RYT restricted to
Replacement series only .
1 Yab + Yba
RYT
=-------
------
-----
2 Yaa + Ybb
Where
Yaa, Ybb - Yield of components a and b in sole croppin
here RYT is 1 , there I s advantage
Yab - Yield of a in intercropping with b considering its
Yba -Yield of b in intercropping with a considering its n
= Ya + Yb
Sa
Sb
Where
La and Lb =the LER for individual crops in the mixture .
Ya and Yb =the inter crop yield in an inter crop situation .
Sa and Sb =yield of species a and b sole crop .
If LER > 1 yield advantage .
Interference indices
Relative Crowding Coefficient (de Wit 1960)
This is one of the competition function For replacement series of
intercropping ,whether the component has produced more or less yield in
intercropping than expected.
