| dc.description.abstract | A field experiment on next generation technologies for nutrient and water management in maize-lablab cropping sequence was carried out during 2019-20 and 2020-21 at agroforestry field unit, UAS, GKVK, Bengaluru. The experiment consisted of twelve treatments replicated three times, assigning three levels of irrigation in main plot with four nutrient management practices in sub plots was laid out in a split plot design. The results revealed, that sensor based drip irrigation at 50 per cent depletion of available soil moisture (DASM) along with nutrient expert software based nutrient management approach in maize at harvest recorded significantly higher leaf area (9020 cm2 plant-1), total dry matter production (435.53 g plant-1), kernel yield (9725 kg ha-1) and stover yield (10352 kg ha-1) on pooled basis during kharif. Treatment received surface irrigation along with recommended dose of fertilizers recorded significantly lower leaf area (5817 cm2 plant-1), total dry matter production (271.79 g plant-1), kernel (6916 kg ha-1) and stover yield (7820 kg ha-1). After harvest of the maize, lablab was grown as residual crop during rabi and the results revealed that at 90 DAS, sensor based drip irrigation at 50 per cent DASM recorded significantly higher leaf area (797.2 cm2 plant-1), total dry matter (36.54 g plant-1), green pod yield (4647 kg ha-1) and haulm yield (5623 kg ha-1) on pooled basis as compared to surface irrigation. The nutrient management using nutrient expert saved 26.6 and 20.0 per cent nutrients as compared to recommended dose of fertilizer. Sensor based drip irrigation saved 32.6 and 32.2 per cent of irrigation water as compared to surface irrigation during first and second year, respectively. | en_US |
