Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during 1989_91 to find out the effect of tillage practices on yield of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) in a rice (Oryza sativa L.&based cropping system on a sandy-loam soil. Stand establishment, growth and yield were improved with an increase in intensity of tillage practices. Seed bed prepared with tractor drawn M.B. plough once supplemented by rotovator resulted in 131 and 47.9% higher pod yields over zero tillage and conventional system (ploughing twice with country plough).
