Biomass productivity of maize and soybean at different plant design in intercropping system was investigated at Radmilovac experimental field of Faculty of Agriculture in Belgrade - Zemun (Serbia), on chernozem luvic soil type, during 2002 and 2003. The treatments consisted of intercrop and both monocrops in dry farming water regime. Maize and soybean intercrops was formed by replacement series method. The effect of two factors was investigated: plant arrangement pattern and different hybrids of maize on above-ground biomass yield of maize and soybean intercropping system. Yield of above ground biomass in technological maturity stage was highly significant affected by meteorological conditions during investigation. Significantly higher yield occured at intercrops compared to monocrops of maize and soybean, at variants with plants in the alternative rows, specially in 2002. At this variants, biomass was decreased with increasing of vegetation period of maize, but it was increased at strip rows intercrops. Soybean intercrops with late matured maize hybrids gave lower above ground biomass yields. Intercrops with alternate rows was much suitable in year with low precipitation and high air temperature.
