Scheduling of Irrigation in Cauliflower (Brassica oleracea var. botrytis L.) under Mid Hill Conditions of Himachal Pradesh

Response of irrigation scheduling and nitrogen levels on growth and yield contributing parameters of radish (Raphanus sativus L.) under mid hills of Himachal Pradesh

“…Comparatively higher root yield due to better root growth under optimum moisture regimes and nutrient availability under N 2 I 3 and N 2 I 2 might be the reason for higher B:C ratio. These findings are in agreement with the results reported by Imitiyazet al,2000 in tomato, Alam et al (2010) in carrot, Himanshu et al (2012) and Sumandeep, (2015) in cabbage and Kumari, (2013) in cauliflower who also reported higher gross returns, net return and B:C ratio under higher frequency of irrigation and N level.…”

Effect of Irrigation and Nitrogen Levels on Nutrient Uptake, Water Use Efficiency and Productivity of Onion (Allium cepa L.) in Himachal Pradesh

“…Higher soil moisture contents under I 1 and I 2 irrigation level were due to frequent irrigations, whereas, comparatively lower moisture contents under I 3 and I 4 treatment were due to longer interval between successive irrigations. Higher moisture contents due to higher frequency of irrigations did not show any visual stress on various physiological processes, resulting in better uptake of nutrients and finally increased plant growth; yields attributes and yield (Kuchenbuch et al, 2006;Patel et al, 2008;Kumari, 2013).…”

Effect of Irrigation and Nitrogen Levels on Growth, Yield and Quality Parameters of Onion (Allium cepa L.) in Himachal Pradesh, India

“…Field experiments were conducted during two crop years (2015)(2016) Higher soil moisture contents under I 1 and I 2 irrigation level were due to frequent irrigations, whereas, comparatively lower moisture contents under I 3 and I 4 treatment were due to longer interval between successive irrigations. Higher moisture contents due to higher frequency of irrigations did not show any visual stress on various physiological processes, resulting in better uptake of nutrients and finally increased plant growth; yields attributes and yield (Kuchenbuch et al, 2006;Patel et al, 2008;Kumari, 2013).…”
