Abstract:
The experiment was conducted at Agronomy Research Farm, Acharya Narendra Deva University of Agriculture & Technology, Kumarganj, Ayodhya (U.P.) during Rabi season of 2019-20 and 2020-21. The experiment was laid out in split plot design having three Sowing methods i.e. M₁: Conventional (Sowing after cleaning of residue), M₂: Sowing with happy seeder and M₃: Sowing after residue incorporation were allotted as main plot and three irrigation schedules i.e. I₁: 0₃ Irrigation (CRI, LJ and milking stage), I₂: 0₄ Irrigation (CRI, Tillering, LJ and milking stage), I₃: 0₅ Irrigation (CRI, Tillering, LJ, Milking and dough stage) kept as sub plot. The experiment was replicated three times on silty loam in texture soil and medium in fertility status having pH (8.32 and 8.26), organic carbon (0.31 and 0.32%), EC (0.28 and 0.30) dsm^-1.The highest value of root studies was recorded under Sowing method M2 compared to other. However, in irrigation schedules highest value observed under I₂ was compared to other treatment level at 60 DAS. The maximum significant value was under observed treatment M2 in sowing method and I₃ in irrigation scheduling with the rest of other treatment.
