Intercropping has an added farming income ratio. Corn as a food source after rice and soybean, is needed by rural communities. This study aims to determine the extent of the production enhancement in the use of maize and kenaf new varieties cultivated using intercropping pattern in seasonal flooded area. Kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus L.) is a natural fiber producing plant able to grow in seasonal flooded area. The intercropping combination of maize and kenaf planting is highly anticipated by farmers. Both commodities are expected to increase farmer revenue/income. The research was conducted in Rowomarto village, Patianrowo sub-district, Nganjuk district in 2015/2016 planting season. The treatments were arranged in a Randomized Block Design that was repeated four times. There were 7 treatments consisting of 3 intercropping of maize and kenaf, and 3 monoculture of kenaf (Kr.9, Kr.11, Kr.12), and 1 monoculture treatment of hybrid corn Bisi 18. Plot size was 9.6 m x 15 m with corn planting distance of 80 cm x 30 cm and kenaf planting distance of 30 cm x 10 cm, one plant per planting hole. The results showed that intercropping of maize and kenaf from the treatment using Bisi 18 hybrid corn + Kr.9; Bisi 18 hybrid corn + kenaf Kr.11; and Bisi 18 hybrid corn + kenaf Kr.12 each gave a farm income ratio of Rp 32.650.000, / ha Rp. 30,100,000, / ha and Rp. 30.450.000 / ha respectively. The land equivalent ratio is greater than 1 which means that the area use of intercropping system is efficient.

DO NEW VARIETIES OF MAIZE AND KENAF COULD IMPROVE GROWTH AND PRODUCTION WHEN CULTIVATED BY INTERCROPPING IN SEASONAL FLOODED AREA OF BONOROWO LAND?
