Abstract:
Field experiments to identify suitable planting method under potato + maize system in the high hill (2200 m) of eastern Nepal Sindhuwa, Dhankuta, was conducted during 2000 and 2001 seasons for the potato variety Hale and maize variety Ganesh 1. Of the different planting methods tested, significantly the highest yield of potato (15.5 t/ha) was recorded from the alternate row planting followed by recommended practice and flat row planting. Early emergence (by 7-12 days) was in farmers' practice, whereas uniform plants (1-5 scale) observed in flat row and double row planting. Maize did not follow

Abstract This study compared alternate tillage practices for peanut production. The influence of these alternate tillage practices on peanut yield, crop value, and grade factors were evaluated. Alternate tillage practices consisted of a power-driven rotary tiller or rolling cultivators with planters attached. Tillage and planting were performed simultaneously immediately following moldboard plowing. This was compared to the conventional practice of moldboard plowing in late March, and two disking operations prior to planting. Results indicated approximately a 10% increase in peanut yield and c

Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.), one of the main grain legume crops grown in tropical and subtropical countries, is mostly grown under rainfed conditions. After chickpea, pigeonpea is India's second most significant crop in terms of area and yield. It makes up 23 per cent of all pulse production (3.33 million tons) and 1.76 per cent of the nation's gross planted land (3.88 million hectares). When grown as a lone crop, pigeonpea is not a highly efficient crop Willey et al., 1980 due to its low harvest index and delayed start growth rate. It is therefore grown as an intercrop, helping to

A field experiment was conducted in winter season of 1985 on MUC.9 cotton at the Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore to find out the best method of planting of cotton and intercrop of green gram (C3) and to find the optimum irrigation regime for scheduling of irrigation to get maximum retums. The results revealed that uniform row planting of cotton with green gram as intercrop irrigated in every furrow at IW/CPE ratio of 0.75 was the most remunerative. Irrigation at IW/CPE ratio of 0.50 and irrigated in every furrow was the optimum irrigation regime for cotton in pure and mixed stan

Abstract:
Small scale farmers in dryland areas normally grow green gram (Vigna radiata L.) under sole crop system. However, studies done on intercropping systems have established that plant arrangement patterns affect crop growth and yield of the companion crops. To advance a better understanding of the effect of crop arrangement in green gram varieties intercropped with sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.), two field experiments were conducted in Mwala and Katangi during the 2022 short rains season in dryland areas of Kenya.

However, after the second cut, such a seed source is not available for regenerating the leave strips. Therefore, the forest manager must consider a number of alternative regeneration options. The selection of the most appropriate regeneration option is dependent upon several economic and biological criteria.
