Abstract

A field experiment was conducted at Raipur, during rainy (kharif) and winter (rabr) seasons of 1993-94, 1994-95 and-1995-96 to find out the effect of different harvesting stages of rice (Oryza sativa L.) on establishment of utera and direct-sown chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) and their ononomics. The direct sowing of chickpea (zero tillage) affer the harvest of dce 15 days after flowering (DAF) resulted in significantly higher seed yield (1 5.51 and 16.41 qlha) compaied to other treatments. The highest net return Rs 12,604Jha was received when chickpea was sown after field preparation by power tiller with rotavator after harvesting of rice 25 DAF, followed by Rs 11,953Jha when direct sowing of chickpea performed after harvesting of rice 25 DAF.
