dc.description.abstract | The length of growing period (LGP) of four micro-Iandfonns in Bankura district, West Bengal, was determined after estimating the per cent moisture content as well as the stored moisture of soils. Soil samples of profiles located at each landform, represented by a transect, were collected at regular incremental depth in the second week of November. Per cent moisture and stored moisture of soils were found to vary with landforms. Soil moisture (per cent) of landforms increased in the order: Tanr (ridge land) > Baid (back slope) > Kanali (toe slope) > Bahal (valley fill). It was observed that the actual moisture storage for soils < 1 m depth was less than the respective AWC values. However, for soils >1 m depth, the values remain unchanged. The duration of growing period was 150-160 days (Tanr), 160-170 days (Baid) as compared to Kanali (180-190 days) and Bahal (200-210 days). Keeping this in view, a rainfed cropping system compatible with the moisture availability period (LGP) of each landform was suggested. Baid landform was judged as the ideal area for growing alternative field crops such as redgram, cowpea, blackgram, sesame, sunflower, etc. instead of existing rainfed rice based on corrected LGP measurements | en_US |
