Description M. Sc. (Ag.)
The present investigation entitled “Studies on crop establishment methods, cropping systems and varieties in submergence prone rainfed lowland rice ecosystems” was carried out during kharif season of 2014 and rabi season of 2014-15 at the Agricultural Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, Institute of Agricultural Sciences, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh (India) situated North East plain zone of the country with a view to evaluate comparative performance of different tillage and crop establishment methods and varieties for submergence prone rainfed lowland rice and to find out appropriate cropping system with variety under post flood, excess moisture environments of Eastern India.
The experiment was laid out in split-split plot design and replicated thrice using rice varieties Swarna-Sub1 (V1) and Samba Mahsuri-Sub1 (V2) as sub-plot treatments and assigning four Crop establishment methods treatments in the main plot (CE1: puddled transplanted rice–surface-seeded rabi crop; CE2: un-puddled transplanted rice–surface-seeded rabi crop; CE3: direct-seeded rice (DSR-ZT drill seeding/seed drill)–surface-seeded rabi crop; and CE4: DSR (DSR-ZT drill seeding) with co-culture Sesbania (brown manuring), followed by 2-4D application 30 DAS– surface-seeded rabi crop). In sub-sub plots four treatments consisting of two cropping systems and two varieties ((CS1V1: rice-surface seeded wheat (var. PBW 502); CS1V2: rice-surface seeded wheat (var. Unnat Halna); CS2V1: rice-Linseed (var. Shubhra); and CS2V2: rice-Linseed (var. Parwati)) were assigned.
The crop establishment method, consisting of DSR-ZT drill seeding with co-culture Sesbania (brown manuring), followed by 2,4-D application 30 DAS or ZTDSR alone, with Swarna-sub1 and the cropping system rice-linseed vr. Parwati as surface seeded crop in post flood rainfed lowland ecosystem with excess moisture environment may be recommended for enhancing system productivity, profitability and production sustainability in Eastern India. However this experiment was conducted in one cropping year. So for validation of the findings, obtained from the experiment, another year’s investigation is needed.
