Abstract:
To assess the effect of different land configurations and plant densities on yield and economics of Indian mustard an experiment was carried out during Rabi, 2020-21 at College Farm, Agricultural college, Jagtial, PJTSAU, Telangana. The experiment was laid out in split plot design with three land configurations as main plots (M1- Flat bed, M2- Ridge and furrow and M3- Broad bed and furrow) and four plant density treatments as sub plots (S1- 45 × 25cm, S2- 45 × 20cm, S3- 45 × 15cm and S4- 45 × 10cm) replicated thrice. Thus from the results obtained from the present investigation it can be concluded that by adopting broad bed and furrow or ridge and furrow method of sowing with 45 cm × 10 cm or 45 cm × 15 cm plant density treatment, higher biological productivity and better monetary returns can be obtained in mustard cultivation during Rabi in Northern Telangana Zone.
