The study on intercropping of autumn planted sugarcane with onion, wheat lentil, mustard and safflower was carried out at the experimental Field of Sugarcane Section, Agriculture Research Institute, Tandojam, Pakistan. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design. The results obtained were analyzed and reported briefly. The results were statistically non-significant for germination, tiller production and plant height. Maximum germination (60.27%) was recorded when sugarcane was planted sole followed by sugarcane + lentil intercropping (58.17%). The same trend was noted for number of tillers stool-1, cane girth and internodes cane. The cane yield ha-1 of sugarcane was maximum (122.97 t ha-1) when sugarcane planted as sole, whereas all the intercrops reduced cane yield significantly. Smoothly and competitive effect was observed for all intercrops when sown with sugarcane.
