Abstract
The performance of rotary blade puddler in terms of puddling index and hydraulic conductivity was found better as compared to peg type puddler. The puddling index increased with the level of puddling. The bulk density of puddled field increased with the level of puddling as well as time after puddling in all the treatments. Hydraulic conductivity decreased after puddling in all the treatments and the decrease was more pronounced with increasing level of puddling.
