Results of the study revealed that the agronomic performance of the legume intercrop planted under single and double rows between the rows of sweet potato did not vary significantly in terms of plant height at harvest, air-dry matter yield of bush sitao. The double row planting of bush sitao between the rows of sweet potato obtained a significantly higher air-dry matter yield compared to those of single row planting. The agronomic performance of sweet potato showed that the length of vines and the number of non-marketable and marketable roots under the different cropping systems did not vary significantly.
