S. Bhaskar et Ks. Shankar, PRODUCTIVITY AND ECONOMICS OF GROUNDNUT (ARACHIS-HYPOGAEA) IN RICE (ORYZA-SATIVA) FALLOWS AS INFLUENCED BY GYPSUM AND SULFUR, Indian Journal of Agronomy, 38(1), 1993, pp. 53-55
A field experiment was conducted during 1989 and 1990 to study the eff
ect of gypsum and sulphur application on productivity and returns of g
roundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) in rice (Oryza sativa L.) fallows under
tankfed irrigation condition. All gypsum and sulphur treatments perfo
rmed equally better in raising the groundnut yields over the control.
Half the quantity of gypsum with seed-pelleting was found beneficial.
Both gypsum and S-pelleting treatments provided higher monetary net re
turns.
