EFFECT OF TILLAGE AND WEED MANAGEMENT PRACTICES AND GROWTH PRODUCTIVITY AND ENERGY ANALYSIS OF LATE- SOWN CHICKPEA

Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 5

Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2013-14 and 2014-15 at the Research Farm, JNKVV, Jabalpur (M.P.) to study tillage and weed management methods on productivity and energy analysis of chickpea. The results revealed that bed planting and conventional tillage resulted in higher growth, yield and yield attributes of chickpea. Both these tillage practices resulted in higher energy output (59317 to 61263 MJ/ha), while lowest (48974 MJ/ha) in case of broadcasting method. Among the herbicidal method weed management, Vellor recorded significantly higher growth, yield and yield-attributes of chickpea in addition to highest energy output (63335 MJ/ha), energy use efficiency (6.18) and energy productivity (0.13). The overall results allude that bed planting with use of Pendimethalin + Imazethapyr herbicide may be adopted to achieve maximum productivity of chickpea.
