The field experiment entitled "Productivity and economic efficiency of mustard (Brassica
juncea L.) under different agronomic management" was conducted to study the
contribution of Production factor; FYM, irrigation, fertilizer and micronutrient
(Zn, S and B) separately, their combinations and their integration towards
increasing the productivity, economic efficiency of Varuna variety under the
agro-climatic condition of Chitwan valley during 2001/2002 at farmers' field of
Mangalpur VDC, Nepal.
The experiment was carried out in a randomized complete block design with three
replications each consisting of 16 treatments. The highest seed yield (841
kg/ha) was obtained under F + I + M being statistically at par with FYM + F + M
and significantly superior over FYM + F + I and FYM + I+ M with respect to three
factor combinations. The seed yield (657 kg/ha) was recorded under F + M, which
was statically higher than control, all single factor treatment and all two
factors treatment. The economic efficiently measured in terms of net return/ha
was found to be in the order of Rs. 5940 and Rs. 780 with F + I + M and F + M
respectively. However, the rest were non-remunerative. The most limiting
constraint of mustard production in Chitwan condition has been recognized as
absence of use of micronutrient and fertilizer from the present study. |
