Abstract/Description: | The experiment was laid out to study the effect of spacing with improved production technologies in extra long staple (ELS) Bt cotton hybrid in farmers field of Perambalur district, Tamil Nadu, India during kharif 2013-2014 under rainfed condition. The experiment had 6 treatments (spacing) with 5 replications. The spacings adopted were 150 × 45, 150 × 60, 120 × 45, 120 × 60 and 120 × 90 cm. A control plot was maintained as farmers practice with the spacing of 120 × 90 cm. The results revealed that among the plant spacing, 120 × 45 cm with improved production technologies recorded highest seed cotton yield (4226 kg/ha) which was significantly superior over plant spacing 120 × 90, 150 × 60 followed by 120 × 60 cm and also on par with spacing of 150 × 45 cm along with improved production technologies. As the same, adoption of 120 × 45 cm spacing in ELS Bt hybrid cultivation with improved production technologies were recorded the highest gross return (‘ 2,83,142/ha), net return (‘ 2,27,392/ha) and Benefit Cost Ratio (5.07) compared to other spacings and farmers practice. The optimal spacing for ELS Bt hybrid with improved production technologies in terms of yield and economics were 120 × 45 and 150 × 45 cm. |
