Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect BBF planting gave cowpea higher haulm yield (25.6 q ha-1).
- Intervention effect BBF planting gave cowpea higher harvest index (34.4 %).
- Intervention effect BBF planting gave higher soil moisture content (32.09 % at 40 DAS).
- Intervention effect BBF planting gave higher rain water use efficiency (5.96 kg ha-mm-1).
- Intervention effect BBF planting gave higher gross return (Rs.42725 ha-1) in cowpea.
- Intervention effect BBF planting gave higher net return (27515 ha-1) in cowpea.
- Intervention effect BBF planting gave higher benefit-cost ratio (2.82) in cowpea.
- Association Rain water use efficiency correlated significantly and positively with soil moisture at 40 DAS (r=0.94).
- Association Rain water use efficiency correlated significantly and positively with soil moisture at 55 DAS (r=0.96).
- Recommendation Cowpea can be grown successfully after summer maize on the existing BBF configuration for higher yield and rain water use efficiency.
