Titelbeschreibung

Master's Thesis from the year 2010 in the subject Agrarian Studies, , course: M. Sc. (Agriculture), language: English, abstract: Rice farmers are mostly involved in monoculture practices. This deprives the land for growing other food crops. Hence, a better alternative of mono/sole cropping is required to overcome this shortcoming. Therefore, a shift from mono cropping to inter/multiple cropping as an excellent strategy for intensifying land use and increasing income and production per unit area and time is appreciated. Keeping this view in mind, the experiment was conducted during the Kharif and Rabi seasons of 2009-10 at University Research cum Instructional Farm, IGKV, Raipur, Chhattisgarh, India. The major objectives were to assess the production potential and economic viability of different rabi intercropping under rice based cropping systems and to identify the suitable/ remunerative rice based cropping systems with vegetables and oilseeds intercrops.
