Abstract
A field experiment was conducted at the Central Agricultural Station, Kwadaso, Ghana to examine soil fertility under different maize based cropping systems. Fertilizer application of NPK 90 - 60 - 60 kg/ha was compared with intercropping maize with cowpea and sole maize. The results showed no significant effects of intercropping on soil fertility in the short term. Though differences in nitrogen level among the cropping systems were insignificant, the level recorded under each system was high.
