Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect The pearlmillet-wheat-tomato sequence yielded 8 022 kg/ ha wheat-equivalent at Hisar, better than the existing pearlmillet-wheat sequence.
- Intervention effect The pearlmillet-potato-sunflower sequence yielded 8 676 kg/ ha wheat-equivalent, better than the existing pearlmillet-wheat sequence in Haryana.
- Intervention effect Rice-potato-groundnut yielded 19 163 kg/ha wheat-equivalent versus 10 016 kg/ha for rice-wheat in Punjab.
- Intervention effect Rice-potato-groundnut had productivity of 53.7 kg/ha/day versus 37.2 kg/ha/day for rice-wheat in Punjab.
- Observation The alternative crop sequences fetched gross returns of Rs 26 473-Rs 28 630/ha at Hisar and Rs 65 763/ha at Ludhiana.
- Observation Existing cropping systems were unstable in yield at both locations.
- Observation Available soil N, P and K improved over years under intensive cropping at recommended nutrient levels at Hisar and Ludhiana.
