Description Investigations were conducted during rabi and kharif season of 2010-11 and
2011-12 at Instructional cum Research Farm, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya,
Raipur (CG). The soil was clay loam (Alfisol) in texture with neutral in pH, having
medium in organic carbon and available nitrogen and phosphorus and high potassium.
Four crops – wheat cv. ‘GW-273’, brinjal cv. ‘Pusa kranti’, sweet corn cv. ‘sugar 75’
and sunflower cv. ‘Jwalamukhi’ were tested in rabi season and in kharif season rice
cv. ‘Karma mahsuri’ was tested with two tillage methods – conventional and
minimum tillage, two mulch levels- rice straw mulch and no mulch and two fertility
levels-100% RDF and 125% RDF following split plot design with factorial
arrangement in three replications. The succeeding rice crop was grown on same set of
lay out during kharif season for the study of residual effect of preceding crop.
The results revealed that conventional tillage gave higher plant growth, yield
attributes and yield of tested crops (wheat, brinjal, sweet corn and sunflower) than
minimum tillage. The higher soil physico-chemical properties under conventional
tillage also support the enhancement of plant growth and yield of tested crops. The
residual effect of conventional tillage during rabi crops had also good effect on
succeeding rice crop in kharif and produced higher plant growth, yield attributes and
yield of rice. On the basis of net income, B: C ratio and energetic, conventional tillage
proved beneficial than minimum tillage.
