Abstract

An agri-horticulture system experiment of mango + rice crop was carried out at Pikridih village, Raipur in Chhattisgarh for two tears of observations (2017-18 & 2018-19). Mango plantation at spacing of 28 x 28 m and were intercropped with rice and wheat in 2017-18 & 2018-19. The growth performance of oryza sativa L. var. Saran at different treatments site located between four clumps along with a separate open field plot were studies for various growth, yield attributes, yields of rice, the plant and soil nutrient status and economics of mango based AHS. Growth parameter and yield of rice crop was found significantly maximum in open field crop than agri-horticulture system. Economics of rice-wheat cropping under mango based agri-horticulture system showed meager gains as compared to mono-cropping but found economically viable and technically feasible by sharing the inputs of irrigation, manure and fertilizer, weeding etc. applied to agriculture crops. The result of this investigation showed that highest rice yield is found under open field as compared to other treatments under mango based agri-horticulture system.
