Effect of planting patterns on yield and some agronomical traits in saffron (Crocus sativus L.) Under different irrigation intervals in Shahr-e-Rey Region

Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 2

Abstract

Due to study the effect of planting patterns on yield and some agronomical traits in saffron (Crocus sativus L.) under different irrigation intervals, an experiment was done in summer 2010 at Shahr-e-Rey agricultural research field as split plot in the basis of randomized completely blocks design with 3 replications. The experimental factors contains: Planting patterns (A) in 2 levels: (Flat Plot and Furrow methods) as main factor and irrigation intervals in 5 levels (Dry farming, 15, 25, 35 and 45 days interval) as sub factor. There was used Isfahan as experimental ecotype. The results indicated that planting pattern had significant difference on yield and other traits, so that in flat plot method the maximum yield (6.20 Kg/ha) produced. Irrigation intervals had significant effect on all experimental traits, such that the highest yield observed in 15 and 25 irrigation days interval and the lowest conducted in non irrigation condition. The factors interaction effect did not have any significant effect on all experimental traits.
