In order to study the effect of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) and coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) intercropping essential oil of coriander, a split plot experiment based on completely random design with three replications was carried out at Shahid Beheshti reserch filed of university of Jiroft during 2013-14. Two levels of weed managements (W1 and W2: with and without weed) and five different levels of intercropping systems (N100, G100, N33G67, N50G50, N67G33: cicer and coriander percent) were primary and secondary treatments respectively. The results showed that linalole as an important subsequence were 65.2, 74.4, 83.7 and 63.4 percentage in 0:100, 33:67, 50:50 and 67:33 treatment respectivly. Incrising cicser plants number up to 50% in the intercropping systems showed 28.4% linalole more than coriander sole cropping. According to this reaserch intercropping system can incrise essential oil of coriander.
