A field experiment was conducted at Agronomy Farm, B. A. College of Agriculture, Anand Agricultural University, Anand, to study the influence of irrigation scheduling (IW:CPE ratios) and sulphur on yield and quality of <italic>rabi</italic> pigeonpea (<italic>Cajanus cajan</italic> L<italic>.</italic>) under middle Gujarat conditions during <italic>rabi</italic>, 2009-10 on loamy sand soil. Irrigation scheduling at 0.8 IW/CPE ratios (I<sub>3</sub>) resulted in significantly the highest grain yield (1677 kg ha<sup>−1</sup>), protein content (20.85 %) and significantly higher stover yield (4858 kg ha<sup>−1</sup>) and gave highest net monetary returns of Rs.37591 ha<sup>−1</sup> with maximum B:C ratio of 2.34. Application of sulphur @ 40 kg S ha<sup>−1</sup> (S<sub>2</sub>) recorded significantly the highest grain (1630 kg ha<sup>−1</sup>) and stover (4819 kg ha<sup>−1</sup>) yields. In case of protein content and economics, application of sulphur @ 40 kg S ha<sup>−1</sup> recorded significantly the highest protein content (21.03 %) and the highest net monetary returns of Rs.35000 ha<sup>−1</sup> with maximum B:C ratio of 2.19. Interaction effect between irrigation scheduling and sulphur levels on grain yield was highly significant. Irrigation scheduled at 0.8 IW/CPE ratio with the application of 40 kg S ha<sup>−1</sup> recorded significantly higher grain yield (1929 kg ha<sup>−1</sup>) , however, it was at par with the irrigation scheduled at 0.8 IW/CPE ratio with 20 kg S ha<sup>−1</sup>.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
