Abstract: |
Five legumes crops; Cow pea Cv. Green long, Rajmah bean Cv. Anupama, Garden pea Cv. Azad, Pole bean Cv. Kentucky wonder, and Broad bean Cv. Local small were planted in newly established mango orchard at regional agriculture research station Parwanipur in subsequent years 2064 and 2065. Experiment was laid out in randomized complete block (RCB) design with five replications. Fertilizer was applied at the rate of 80:60:40 kg N:P205:K20/ha and 15 tons farm yard manure per hectare. The main objective of the study was to find out a suitable legume crop for better yield and more economic return in newly established mango orchard. On the basis of green pods yield and economical benefit, Rajmah gave significantly highest green pod yield (5,043 kg/ha) and economical net benefit of Rs.12,720 /ha followed by Pole bean (2,577 kg /ha and Rs.53,080/ha) These two winter crops are recommended for inter cropping in young mango orchard. |
