The study investigates the effects of chickpea-based intercropping systems and organic nutrient modules on soil physico-chemical properties. Conducted during the rabi season of 2022-23 at the Centre for Organic Agriculture Research and Training, Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola, the experiment was designed using a strip plot with treatments including sole chickpea and chickpea intercropped with coriander, linseed, and sorghum. Organic nutrient modules applied were organic farming, natural farming, and an integrated approach combining both. The weed density, fresh weight and dry matter production were recorded to be minimum in chickpea + coriander than all other intercropping systems which was on par with sole chickpea during both the seasons. Weed control efficiency was recorded to be highest with the chickpea + coriander intercropping system which was on par with sole chickpea and how ever the weed index was considered to be highest with the sole chickpea which was on par with chickpea + coriander intercropping system. These findings suggest that intercropping with chickpea and using integrated organic management can improve soil quality, promoting sustainable agricultural practices.
