<![CDATA[The existence of weeds on sweet corn crops can lead to competition that reduce the yield. The aim of this research was to obtain the optimum crop proportion of corn-peanut plants in suppressing weed growth but not decrease the yield of sweet corn. The experiment was conducted using a single factor field experimental method arranged in a complete randomized block design with 3 blocks as replication. The treatment was the proportion of sweet corn-peanut population consisting of 3 levels, i.e 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, sweet corn monoculture and peanut monoculture as comparison.The results of this research showed that intercropping of sweet corn+peanut with population proportion of 1:2 can suppress weed growth in on the 9th week (at harvest) without decreasing sweet corn yield.]]>
