Up to present, studies on the uses of intercrop spaces are frequently directed to those for woody plants, particularly industrial crops such as rubber, coconut, cocoa, and pepper. The uses of intercrop spaces for fruit crops, however, have not been well studied, although fruit culture usually employes wide intercrop spaces. These wide intercrop spaces, especially during a young-juvenile phase, offer better income for farmers if proper intercrops are planted. Economic studies on them suggest that they can be promising. Moreover, rice cultivars adapted to shading are available. Some aspects on intercropping rice into fruit crops, however, need to be studied further, as the intercops and the main crops may be interacted to affect flowering, yield, and fruit qualities of the main crops
