Abstract: The study, “Dry Season Planting of Corn Intercropped with Peanut” was conducted in DSAC, Indang, Cavite from October 1989 to January 1990. It was undertaken to produce corn and peanut other than during the wet season and to acquire experience in the actual project. An area of 1,500 square meters was prepared for both peanut and corn. Peanut seeds were drilled in between the corn at a distance of 75 centimeters between rows. Early dry season favored rapid moisture loss which consequently caused a reduction in the targeted yield. However, the prices of corn which increased by the year, and other inputs which were not actually used like insecticides partially compensated for the loss. The project gave a net income of P638.76 stover and peanut has provided a source for livestock feed. Corn seed provided a gross income of P960.00 while peanut was P1,200.00. Corn grains were sold at P8.00 per kilo while peanuts was sold at P30.00 per kilo.
