The field experiment was conducted during two Rabi seasons from 12thNovember,
2014 to 26th April, 2015 and 23rd November, 2015 to 4th May 2016, on sandy clay loam soil at
Instructional Farm of Department of Irrigation and Drainage Engineering, College of Agricultural
Engineering and Technology, Dr. Balasaheb Sawant Konkan Krishi Vidypeeth, Dapoli, India (latitude
170 45’ N and longitude 730 10’ E and altitude of 250 m). The experiment was arranged in twelve
treatment combinations with strip plot design as horizontal factor (main treatment) one continuous
irrigation (P1), two pulses (P2), three pulses (P3) and four pulses (P4), while vertical factor (sub
treatment) as irrigation levels viz., I1 (0.80 ETC
), I2
(1.0 ETC
) and I3 (1.20 ETC
) treatments. It was
revealed that the average seasonal water applied to white onion under pulse irrigation (drip)
through different irrigation levels varied from 276.8 mm for I1
(0.8 ETC
) to 429.0 mm for I3
(1.2 ETC
)
irrigation levels. Among the different treatment combination I2P4
(irrigation level I2
(1.0 ETC
) with
four pulse treatment P4) was found 38.52 t.ha-1 and significantly superior over I1P1
(irrigation level
I
1
(0.8 ETC
) with continuous irrigation P1). The production cost of Rs. 4,47,366 and Rs. 4,42,962
ha-1, gross returns of Rs. 9,63,000 and Rs. 9,31,500 ha-1, net returns of Rs. 5,15,634 and Rs. 4,88,538
ha-1 and B C ratio of 2.15 and 2.10, were observed for I2P4
and I3P4
treatment combinations, respectively.
Average water use efficiency was found maximum for I1P4
(11.93 q ha-1 cm-1) treatment combination
followed by I1P3
(11.33 q ha-1cm-1) and I2P4
(10.99 q ha-1cm-1) treatment combinations, respectively
