Abstract:
The performance of soybean and pigeon pea under strip cropping was evaluated. The strips are wide enough to be managed independently, yet they are narrow enough to allow crops that are rotated annually to influence the micro climate and yield potential of adjacent crops. Mechanization as far as agriculture is concerned requires the study, manufacture, utilization, maintenance and repair of all tools, implements, machines, equipment and structures that will enable the farmer to increase the productivity of human labor economically.
The performance of soybean and pigeon pea under strip cropping was evaluated. The strips are wide enough to be managed independently, yet they are narrow enough to allow crops that are rotated annually to influence the micro climate and yield potential of adjacent crops. Mechanization as far as agriculture is concerned requires the study, manufacture, utilization, maintenance and repair of all tools, implements, machines, equipment and structures that will enable the farmer to increase the productivity of human labor economically.
The field experiment was conducted during two consecutive kharif seasons of 2018-19 and 2019-20 at All India Coordinated Research Project on Dryland Agriculture, Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Krishi Vidyapeeth, Parbhani (M.S.), India. The experiment consists of eight treatments i.e. T1 -soybean: Pigeonpea strip of 6:3 rows, T2 - soybean: pigeonpea strip of 6:6 rows, T3 - soybean: pigeonpea strip of 12:9 rows, T4 - soybean: pigeonpea strip of 12:12 rows, T5 - soybean: pigeonpea strip of 18:12 rows,T6 - soybean + pigeonpea (4:2) intercropping system, T7 - sole soybean and T8 -sole pigeon pea, in randomized block design with three replications. The data on growth parameters and yield parameters were recorded at periodical intervals and was analyzed.
The result revealed that the growth attributes the T7-sole soybean recorded highest growth parameters and also highest recorded in case of T8-sole pigeon pea. Among the strip cropping treatments, T5 - soybean: pigeon pea strip of 18:12 rows recorded highest growth attributes over rest of the treatments. Based on pooled data, it is revealed that, the T7-sole soybean significantly recorded highest (1478 kg/ha) seed yield, straw and biological yield as compared to other treatments while T8-sole pigeon pea significantly recorded higher (1322 kg/ha) seed yield, straw and biological yield. Among the strip cropping treatments, T5 - soybean: pigeon pea strip of 18:12 rows recorded highest seed yield, straw and biological yield over rest of the treatments.
