Abstract
The experiment was carried out to determine the effect of inter raw spacing and nitrogen on growth and yield of cress (Lepidium sativum L.) under Anand conditions. Four inter-raw spacings (Broadoastingt 30 cm, 45 cm and 60 cm) and four levels of nitrogen (0, 20, 40 and 60 kg N/ha) comprising total of 16 treatment combinations were tested for this purpose. Field trials were conducted for two years i . e. 1981-82 and 1982-83 during the rabi season. The maximum grain yield was obtained with broadcast crop manured with 60 kg N/ha. On the other hand, highest not profit was realized with treatment combination S1N3 i.e. 30 cm inter-raw spacing and 60 kg N/ha which also recorded highest CBR (1 : 3.29).
