The invention belongs to the technical field of
plant disease ecology, and particularly discloses an
intercropping mode for relieving corn southern
rust disease. Different corn varieties and different pepper varieties are selected, for spring-planted peppers, positions are reserved when
winter wheat is planted in the previous year, pepper seedlings are transplanted in May of the next year, and corn with the
sowing time 1 is planted; after the wheat is harvested, summer-planted pepper is transplanted, and corn with the
sowing time 2 is planted; performing statistical determination on the
diseased plant rate, diseased leaf rate and
disease index of the corn southern
rust disease in the
intercropping mode in a corn filling stage; selecting an optimal
intercropping mode through measured data; in a harvesting period, respectively counting the yields of the corns and the peppers; other planting management methods of corn in the intercropping mode are the same as those of single-
cropping corn, and other planting management methods of pepper in the intercropping mode are the same as those of single-
cropping pepper. According to the intercropping mode, the morbidity of the corn southern
rust disease can be effectively relieved, meanwhile, the yield can be increased, and therefore the
economic benefits of strip-shaped compound planting can be remarkably increased.
