Other claims from this paper (15)
- Intervention effect BBF significantly improved growth, biological yield and harvest index ratio of pigeon pea relative to CT, MT and ZT.
- Intervention effect BBF significantly improved water productivity of pigeon pea relative to CT, MT and ZT.
- Intervention effect BBF significantly improved physicochemical properties of the soil relative to CT, MT and ZT.
- Intervention effect Under BBF, pigeon pea seed yield increased by 9.9% compared with CT.
- Intervention effect Under BBF, pigeon pea stalk yield increased by 4.1% compared with CT.
- Association The short-duration cultivar produced higher yield (16.8%) in the frost-affected year (2012-2013).
- Association In the normal climatic year (2013-2015) the short-duration cultivar was at par in yield with the long-duration cultivar.
- Association The short-duration cultivar produced significantly higher yield overall.
- Association Production efficiency and water productivity were higher for the short-duration cultivar.
- Intervention effect BBF showed significantly higher organic carbon and infiltration rate than the other tillage practices.
- Intervention effect BBF decreased soil pH compared with the other tillage practices.
- Intervention effect BBF significantly lowered bulk density of the surface and sub-surface layers compared with the other tillage practices.
- Intervention effect BBF increased the maximum available N, P and K in surface soil.
- Intervention effect BBF increased the maximum available S in surface soil.
- Recommendation The BBF method appears beneficial for the short-duration pigeon pea cultivar under variable climate in Central India.
