Abstract

The present investigation was carried out during Kharif and Rabi seasons of 2017-18 and 2018-19 at Students Instructional Farm (SIF) of C.S. Azad. University of Agriculture & Technology, Kanpur, entitled “Effect of resource conservation practices on yield attributes and yield in maize based cropping system” The treatments were comprises of three cropping systems (Maize-Wheat, Maize-Field Pea and Maize-Mustard), two moisture conservation practices (Mulching and No mulching) and three nutrient management treatments (100% RDF, 85% RDF+2.5 tonne/ha FYM and 70% RDF+5.0 tonne/ha FYM application of FYM only in kharif season). The field experiment was laid out in Split Plot Design with three replication. The effect of resource conservation practices was observed on yield attributes and yield in different cropping system. The highest growth attributes and yield was observed in mulching and 85% RDF+2.5 tonne/ha FYM treatments.
