Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
The present field investigation in chilli resulted the treatment T2 (hand weeding at the interval of 15 days) was recorded maximum growth and yield viz., plant height, number of branches per plant, days of first flowering, number of flowers per plant and fruiting span, number of fruits per plant, fruit length, fruit weight, fruit yield per plant and fruit yield per plot followed by treatment T9 (three hand weeding at 15,30 and 45 days after transplanting + back polythene mulch (50 μ)) and T10 three hand weeding at 15,30 and 45 days after transplanting+ white polythene mulch (50 μ)over control T1. The maximum gross return was obtained from treatment T2 ₹ 167080. The maximum net profit of ₹ 116080 per ha was obtained under treatment combination T2 (hand weeding at the interval of 15 days) which was closely followed by treatment combination T8 (¬three hand weeding at 15, 30 and 45 days after transplanting + soybean straw mulch) with net profit of ₹ 82500 per ha. The minimum net profit was found in treatment T12 (paddy straw mulch + black polythene mulch (50 μ)) with net profit of ₹ 9980 per ha and the economics of various treatment combinations with 3.28 BC ratio over control.
