Field experiment was conducted at the Central Agricultural Research Station, OUAT, Bhubaneswar during kharif 2006 and 2007 to assess the effect of intercropping on the incidence of Antigastra catalaunalis Duponchel and yield in Sesamum indicum L. The study revealed that sesamum intercropped with greengram (PDM 84-139), blackgram (PU-35), pearl millet (L-74), sorghum (SSG 59-3) and cluster bean (PNB) at 3:3 row ratio reduced the incidence of Antigastra catalaunalis on sesame (OSC-207). In case of sesame (sole crop) 10% capsule damage was recorded but lower incidence (6-9%) was recorded in intercropping systems. Amongst the intercrops, clusterbean gave highest sesame equivalent yield (2192.38 kg/ha) followed by blackgram (777.00 kg/ha). The cost:benefit ratio was 5.79 and 2.85 in case of clusterbean and blackgram intercropping system, respectively.
