This research took place at the Center for Agricultural Research in Mozambique, on red ferrallitic soil, located at the Ntengo Umodzi Agronomy Post, Angonia District, Province of Tete, in 20122012. The aim was to evaluate agroproductivity indicators within a crop area of maize and beans in association. A randomized block experimental design was used, with 4 replicas and 5 treatments, consisting of maize plants, variety PAN 53; and beans, variety Diacol, in association, in 20 lots of 8 furrows each. Plant height was evaluated for the two crops. The number of kernels per ear and beans per pod were determined, along with the land equivalence ratio. SPSS 13.0 for Windows was used for statistical analysis of results, and normal distribution of each variable data was checked. Variance analysis was made as well. The Pearson correlation coefficient was performed through the Statistical Analysis System (SAS). The results showed no significant differences in terms of plant height and number of kernels per ears. The land equivalence ratio of the associated area was efficient for all the bean treatments, with a 61% advantage over monocrops
