dc.description.abstractABSTRACT The present investigation entitled “Performance of Multipurpose Tree Species (MPT’s) and grasses under different soil working techniques in degraded lands” was carried out at Lambidhar near University Farmer’s Hostel, Dr. Y.S Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry, Nauni, Solan (H.P.) during the year 2012-2013.with the objectives to study the performance of MPT’s and grasses under different soil working techniques, to study the runoff, soil and nutrient losses under different soil working techniques. The present study revealed that continuous contour was the most suitable soil working technique for MPT’s and grasses out of all three soil working techniques used. The survival percentage, plant height, collar diameter, above ground biomass, total biomass, and root weight, was found to be better in continuous contour for both the multipurpose tree species. Continuous contour also proved to be most effective in relation to performance of grasses. It resulted into higher survival (%), maximum number of tillers and maximum tillers’ length plant-1 for both the grass species. While other soil working techniques viz. Small ridgeditch and pit planting showed poor performance in slopy degraded land as compared to continuous contour. The runoff, soil and nutrient losses were reduced under continuous contour in comparison to other two techniques.en_US
