Abstract：The intercropping patterns of fresh corn with peanut (row ratio of 3∶4)were compared with monocropping in middle -and low -yielding fields of suburban areas.The results showed that the conventional intercropping patterns of fresh corn and peanut (row ratio of 3∶4)was the optimum.The benefit of intercrop-ping pattern of corn with Huayu 28 increased by 2 976.0 Yuan per hectare compared with the monocropping corn and 11 916.0 Yuan per hectare compared with monocropping and mulching peanut.The increase of eco-nomic benefit was significant.Under this pattern,the yield per plant of corn was significantly higher than that under monocropping,and the fresh corn was harvested one month earlier than peanut to have no overshadow effect on peanut with edge growth effects at late growth stage;the yield gap between monocropped and inter-cropped peanut was cut down,thus the comprehensive economic benefit was greatly improved.
