Fiori & Paol.) a nd Indian mustard [Brassica juncea (L.) Czernj. & Cosson]. Among the d ifferent cropping sequences, rice (Oryza sativa L.)-wheat recorded the highest yield on rice equivalent basis with maximum production effici ency. This sequence also secured the highest net return and benefit:co st ratio.
