Abstract
A two-year field experiment was conducted at Main Agricultural Research Station, Raichur in 2021 and 2022 was laid out in a Split-Split design with four main, two sub and two sub-sub treatments with three replications to evaluate effect of conservation agricultural practices on growth and yield of pigeonpea. The treatments with flat bed, Compartment bund, Ridge and furrow & Broad bed and furrow were takes on main, treatments with mulching and without mulching an sub treatment and FYM and RDF & FYM an sub-sub treatment. Among them ridges and furrow (M3) method along with mulching FYM and RDF was found to have positive influence of growth parameters viz., plant height, number of primary branches and total dry matter production at harvest stage. Adopting the ridge and furrow method can be an effective strategy for optimizing the grain yield (1555 kg ha-1 and 1599 kg ha-1) in 2021 and 2022 in pigeonpea crop respectively.
