Partial results on basil crop in intercropping system

Abstract

The paper presents the behavior of basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) crop in two intercropping systems with runner bean (Phaseolus coccineus L.) and cherry tomatoes (Licopersicon esculentum L.). The obtained results were evaluated based on morphological and phenological characteristics of the chosen species, revealing the agrophitotechnological character of alimentary basil and its productivity in the two intercropping systems. Due to the decorative valences that basil presents, which were highlighted in the intercropping systems, this species brings unity and harmony to the specific ornamental vegetable garden of our country.
