 ABSTRACT

In bed planting method more crop growth rate and relative growth rate was observed at all stages of observations as compared to conventional and zero till planting method during both years except between 46 DAS- maturity during 2015 where crop growth rate and relative growth rate in bed planting method was statistically at par with crop growth rate and relative growth rate in zero till planting method. Except at 15 DAS, bed planting method resulted in significantly more leaf area index as compared to conventional and zero till planting method during both years. Bed planting method resulted in significantly more number of pods plant-1. Seed yield being a function of yield attributes was also significantly more in bed planting method. Biological yield was also significantly more in bed planting method as compared to conventional and zero till planting method during both years. Maximum net returns were also found in bed planting method during both years. Crop growth rate, relative growth rate & leaf area index in green gram varied significantly among different weed management practices. At 15 DAS, weed management practices did not affect LAI but at remaining stages CGR, RGR (15-30 DAS, 31-45 DAS, 46 DAS-Maturity) and LAI (30 & 45 DAS) were improved in all weed management treatments compared to weedy check due to better control of weeds. Pods plant-1 varied among different weed management practices. Weed free treatment provided maximum seed yield, biological yield. All the weed management treatments showed higher gross returns, net returns as compared to weedy check.

Key words: Economics, Green gram, Growth parameters, Weed management practices.
