An experiment was conducted during 1998 99,1999 2000 and 2000 2001, at Regional Research Sub station Saini, Kaushambi, Uttar Pradesh, to work out suitable and profitable rice (Oryza sativa L.) based crop sequence on sandy loam soil.The maximum rice grain equivalent yield was recorded in rice chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) crops sequence (162.61 qlha), followed by rice chickpea yellow season (Brassica campestris var. yellow sarson) cucumber (1 61.22 qlha) and were significantly superior to that of remaining crop sequences. The lowest rice grain equivalent (1 11.88 qlha) was found under ricechickpea linseed mungbean (Phaseolus radiatus L.) crop sequence. Production efficiency based on 3 years was found highest with rice chickpea linseed cucumber (50.97 kglhdday), followed by rice chickpea yellow sarson cucumber (50.54 kglhatday). The total monetary gain, returnslhdday and benefit : cost ratio were re corded maximum with rice chickpea linseed cucumber, followed by rice chickpea yellow sarson cucumber. The maximum land use efficiency was associated with rice toria (Brassica campestris var. toria) wheat cucumber (94.5%).References
