Abstract
An experiment was conducted during kharif season to investigate the performance of tomato cultivation under plastic mulch and without mulch condition. Five different treatments were designed in which T1- Lakshmi, T2- Swaraksha, T3- Swarna Sampda, T4- Vidya and T5- Ashok varieties were sown under drip irrigated fertigation system with four replications. The mortality rate of T1, T2 and T3 were 22.5%, 24.2% and 25.3% more as compared to without plastic mulch condition. It was observed that mulch condition that weeds was found to be very low in comparison to without mulch condition which was 42 g/m2 and 1665 g/m2 respectively. The highest yield of 19.2 t/ha was recorded for treatment T1 (Lakshmi) under plastic mulch condition. The statistical analysis revealed that during kharif season cultivation of tomato crops under mulch condition is more profitable in comparison to without mulch condition.
