Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation The 1:2 pigeonpea-greengram intercropping gave economically feasible net returns.
- Intervention effect Barley straw residue mulch at 2.5 tonnes/ha gave better economic net returns than the other practices.
- Intervention effect Barley straw residue mulch at 2.5 tonnes/ha increased nutrient uptake.
- Observation Moisture availability was nearly the same among all treatments except under dry spell.
- Intervention effect Barley straw residue mulch at 2.5 tonnes/ha conserved soil moisture during a dry spell period under rainfed conditions.
- Recommendation Farmers can integrate the 1:2 pigeonpea-greengram intercropping without reducing the spacing of the main crop and apply previous crop residues as mulch if possible.
