Abstract

This two-year research was aimed to identify the relationships between irrigation and nutrient management practices on crop growth and yield. Treatments consisted of three irrigation levels viz. recommended critical stages regimes (I1), irrigation at 0.6 CPE (I2) and irrigation at 1.0 CPE (2) in main plots and four nutrient management practices viz. inorganic nutrient management (F1), organic nutrient management (F2), natural farming management (F3), integrated nutrient management (F4) in subplots, laid out in split-plot design with three replications. It was revealed that irrigation at 1.0 CPE (I3) produced significantly taller plants and higher dry matter accumulation but did not influence the days taken for 50 % flowering and physiological maturity. Nutrient management practices also had a significant influence on these parameters in which integrated nutrient management (F4) was found to be superior for dry matter accumulation, plant height, days taken for 50 % flowering, physiological maturity and yield.
