Residue Management and Preceding Winter Crops on Root Characteristics, Weed Dynamics, Productivity, Nutrient Uptake and Profitability of Green Gram under Zero–till Semi-arid ConditionBy Lal Prasad Amgain, Ajit Ram Sharma, Abhisek Shrestha
Abstract: Field experiments under zero-till rainfed conditions were conducted during 2010–11 and 2011–12 at New Delhi for evaluating the agronomic performance and economics of green gram influenced by residue management practices, viz. no-residue, crop residues and Leucaena twigs applied to three preceding winter-season crops, such as wheat, chickpea and mustard. All crops were grown under zero-tillage following recommended practices under rainfed conditions. Green gram showed higher root length density (RLD), root …

Preceding winter season crops and residue management practices on root: shoot characters,yield and economics of succeeding pearlmillet under no-ill tilled semi-arid ecosystemBy Lal Prasad Amgain, Ajit Ram Sharma, Abhisek Shrestha
Abstract: Conservation agriculture practices,such as no-tillage with residue recycling is a very popular feasible approach to increase the productivity and resource-use efficiency under rainfed ecosystem. A field experiment wasaccomplished at IARI, Pusa, NewDelhi toidentify suitable pearl millet based cropping systems mainly with wheat, chickpea and mustardalongwith the organic mulches,viz.no residues, crop residues and Leucaenatwigs applied to both summer and winter season crops grown in sequence during 2010–2011 and 2011-2012. Both rainy- …
