e2“Onion produced statistically similar growth and yield attributes, bulb yield, gross and net returns and nutrient uptake, due to direct application of 5.0 kg Zn/ha and residual effect of 5.0 and 7.5 kg Zn/ha to cotton, which were significantly superior to control and residual effect of 2.5 kg Zn/ha.”

Other claims from this paper (15)
- Intervention effect Transplanted cotton, compared with direct sown cotton, gave onion significantly higher economic parameters and nutrient uptake.
- Intervention effect Direct application of 5.0 kg Zn/ha gave onion gross and net returns significantly superior to control.
- Intervention effect Direct application of 5.0 kg Zn/ha gave onion nutrient uptake significantly superior to control.
- Intervention effect Residual effect of 5.0 and 7.5 kg Zn/ha to cotton gave onion bulb yield significantly superior to control.
- Intervention effect Both residual and direct Zn application were found to enhance the quality of onion bulb in terms of Zn enrichment.
- Intervention effect Residual effect of 5.0/7.5 kg Zn/ha and direct effect of 5.0 kg Zn/ha increased onion Zn uptake by 32.0, 31.8% and 36.2%.
- Intervention effect Transplanted cottononion cropping system gave seed cotton equivalent yield of 9.45 t/ha, greater than the direct sown system.
- Intervention effect Transplanted cottononion cropping system gave production efficiency of 27.0 kg/ha/day, greater than the direct sown system.
- Intervention effect Transplanted cottononion cropping system gave economic efficiency of 736.9 /ha/day, greater than the direct sown system.
- Intervention effect Transplanted cottononion cropping system gave irrigation water productivity of 1.16 kg/m3, greater than the direct sown system.
- Intervention effect Successive increase in Zn levels significantly increased system productivity up to application of 5.0 kg Zn/ha.
- Association Productivity of cotton and onion was higher in 2013-14 than in 2014-15.
- Recommendation For Bt cotton-onion systems, 5.0 kg Zn/ha to Bt cotton is recommended to meet the zinc requirement of both the crop.
- Recommendation Transplanted cotton is recommended over direct sown cotton in the cotton-onion system.
- Intervention effect Residual and direct Zn treatments gave a gain in onion net returns of 40,350, 43,200 and 47,950/ha over control.
