| dc.description.abstract | Field experiments were conducted at Agricultural Research Station, Devihosur in black clayey soil under rainfed condition during 2004-06. The experiments were laid out in split plot design. The treatments comprised of two chilli genotypes (cv. Byadagi kaddi and Hy. 9646) with Jayadhar cotton as mixed crop (main plot) and six intercrops viz., soybean, french bean, coriander (vegetable), coriander (seeds), garlic and onion (sub-plot). Significantly higher dry chilli yield was recorded with genotype Hy. 9646 (1013 and 355 kg/ha) compared to cv. Byadagi (737 and 293 kg/ha) under both conventional and organic system of cultivation, respectively. Intercropping coriander (vegetable) with chilli + cotton recorded significantly higher dry chilli yield (1122 and 504 kg/ha) in conventional and organic cultivation systems, respectively. Intercropping coriander (vegetable) with chilli + cotton recorded significantly higher kapas yield (580 and 629 kg/ha) in conventional and organic cultivation, respectively. Chilli equivalent yield was highest with chilli cv. Byadagi (2189 and 1400 kg/ha) compared to chilli genotype Hy. 9646 (2096 and 1327 kg/ha) due to inclusion of chilli genotypes in intercropping with chilli + cotton in both conventional and organic system of cultivations, respectively. Intercropping garlic with chilli + cotton based cropping system recorded significantly higher chilli equivalent yield (3216 and 2443 kg/ha) compared to rest of the treatments in both conventional and organic system of cultivation. Inclusion of chilli cv. Byadagi with intercropping chilli + cotton mixed cropping system recorded significantly higher B:C ratio (2.6 and 0.69) compared to chilli genotype Hy. 9646 (2.16 and 0.44) under both conventional and organic form of cultivation. Intercropping onion with chilli + cotton accounted for significantly higher B:C ratio (3.41) in conventional cultivation while intercropping garlic with chilli + cotton recorded highest B:C ratio (1.22) under organic form of cultivation. Intercropping onion with chilli (cv. Byadagi) + cotton recorded significantly higher B:C ratio in conventional cultivation and intercropping garlic with chilli (cv. Byadagi) + cotton under organic form of cultivation. | en_US |
