Abstract:
Subabool leaf mulch revealed significantly tallest plant, maximum dry matter accumulation plant^-1, higher leaf area plant^-1, maximum number of branches plant^-1 as compared to other leaf mulching treatments. The number of capsules plant^-1 varied significantly due to leaf mulching. The number of capsules plant^-1 was observed significantly highest with Subabool leaf mulching than rest of mulching treatments. Subabool leaf mulching recorded significantly higher capsule length as compared to other mulch treatments. Seed yield, Stover yield, and biological yield (kg ha^-1) of sesame was observed maximum in Subabool leaf mulching followed by, Cassia, Albizia and Control (no mulching) respectively.
