| Description |
This paper discusses experiments that were carried out to study the growth pattern of pearl millet and groundnut to determine how component crops compete with each other and whether they are able to "complement" each other in space or in time. Results showed that improved efficiency of light use can occur in this millet/groundnut combination and that it can be an important determinant of the yield advantages.
