Abstract

Not AvailableFive oilseed based cropping systems fallow-safflower; pearl millet-chickpea + safflower (3:1); fallow-sunflower; soybean-sunflower and soybean + pigeonpea (4:2) which are popular in Vertisols were evaluated in four land configuration practices in broad bed and furrow system. The amount of rainfall received during cropping season (June-March) was 1009 mm. Crops did not suffer from moisture stress. Land configuration practices did not differ statistically in influencing the cropping systems productivity. Among the different oilseed based cropping systems, soybean + pigeonpea (4:2) recorded significantly the highest system productivity (4625 kg/ha). The system productivity of other four were in the order of double cropping of soybean-sunflower (3175 kg/ha) > millet-chickpea+safflower (1513 kg/ha) > fallow-sunflower (1488 kg/ha) > fallow-safflower (1200 kg/ha).Not Availabl
