| dc.description.abstract | An experiment was conducted during Rabi season of 2005-2006 at Agroforestry Research Centre of G.B. Pant University of Agriculture and Technology, Pantnagar to evaluate the various provenances of Jatropha intercropped with Lentil. The experiment was laid out in Randomized block design with 3 replications and consisting of 9 treatments including 8 different Jatropha provenances (Kaladungi, Halduchour, Gola, Kheda, Bailparao, Bilaspur, Pantnagar-1 and Pantnagar-2) intercropped with lentil along with control (lentil in open). Emergence per cent, plant height, dry matter accumulation, number of primary branches per plant, nodules number and biomass, yield and yield attributes (number of plants per 0.25 m2, number of pods per plant, number of grains per plant, number of grains per pod and grain weight per plant) were found higher in lentil in open system as compared to Jatropha based agroforestry system at all the growth stages. Lentil under Pantnagar-1 showed higher emergence per cent, number of primary branches per plant (at 90 DAS), nodule biomass (at 120 DAS) and all yield attributing characters. Significantly higher values of yield and yield attributes were recorded in open system as compared to under different Jatropha provenances. Higher value of biological yield and grain yield of lentil were obtained under Pantnagar-1. Higher value of number of seeds per plant, seed length, collar diameter, height and number of branches were recorded in Bailparao provenance whereas higher seed weight per plant was found in Gola provenance. | en_US |
