Abstract: ALEGRE, ELMER M. Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang Cavite, April 1990. "Effect of Peanut Population Density on Growth and Yield of Intercropped Peanut and Corn Compared with The Sole Crop System." Dr. Vicente G. Lontoc (Adviser) "Effect of Peanut Population Density on Growth And Yield of Intercropped Peanut and Corn compared with the Sole Crop System" was conducted in Barangay Conchu, Trece Martirez City, from September to December 1989. The study aimed to compare the growth and yield of intercropped peanut and corn in comparison with the sole crop system as affected by peanut population density. There were four replications with six treatments in each Spanish red peanut and flint corn varieties were used as planting materials for the study. Peanut and corn were planted with a row spacing of 0.75 meter. The within row spacing of intercropped peanut varied according to their population density requirement's. These were 0.067, 0.10, 0.13 and 0.20 meters for population density treatments of 200,000;, 133,000; 100,000 and 60,000 plants per 1- 1- hectare respectively The row and within row spacing for ole cropped peanut were the same as the intercropped peanut hat has the highest population density (200,000 plants per hectare). Intercropped and sole cropped corn had uniform planting distances of 0.75 meter between rows and 0.25 meter between plants in the row. Sole cropped peanut with population density of 200,000 plants per hectare appeared to be the tallest at maturity with a mean height of 49.75 centimeters. It also produced the heaviest mean weight of dry pods with 76.25 grams per plant. Corn intercropped with peanut at a population density of 200,000 plants per hectare appeared to be the tallest at maturity with a mean height of 154.08 centimeter followed by sole cropped corn with population density of 53,000 plants per hectare. Corn with population density of 53,000 plants per hectare intercropped with peanut at a population density of 200,000 plants per hectare produced the heaviest mean weight of 237.5 grams per plant. Sole cropped corn with population density of 53,000 plants per hectare produced a mean weight of 195 grams per plant. Only sole cropped peanut with population density of 200,000 plants per hectare gave the best result on the average weight of pods in grams per plant.

Corn with population density of 53,000 plants per hectare intercropped with peanut at a population density of 200,000 plants per hectare produced the heaviest mean weight of 237.5 grams per plant.
Sole cropped corn with population density of 53,000 plants per hectare produced a mean weight of 195 grams per plant. Only sole cropped peanut with population density of 200,000 plants per hectare gave the best result on the average weight of pods in grams per plant.
