Overview

Experiment shows improved cotton yield with specific irrigation frequencies and mulching types, suggesting optimal practices for farmers.

Key Points

  • Silver black plastic mulch at 0.8 ETc and 3-day irrigation frequency led to a seed cotton yield of 4661 kg ha-1, enhancing productivity.
  • The study measured actual evapotranspiration using soil moisture sensors to evaluate irrigation regimes and frequencies.
  • Drip irrigation with different mulches indicated varying benefits in plant growth and economic returns over two years in Gujarat.
  • Water use efficiency was highest at 20.48 kg ha-1mm-1, emphasizing the importance of irrigation management for cotton cultivation.
