e0“50 kg N + 17.2 kg P ha-1 recorded higher crop performance ratio, ARUE, agronomic and physiological efficiency of N and P over other fertility treatments.”
e1“Objectives were to examine the effect of transpiration suppressants and nutrients on sustaining productivity, profitability of pearlmillet/pigeonpea intercropping for realizing maximum nutrients and moisture use efficiency in moisture scarce conditions.”
