Dr. Anil Kumar Gupta*

ABSTRACT

This Article entitled "studies on nitrogen management in Wheat + linseed intercropping systems under dry land conditions of West U.P." was conducted at the crop Research Block of A.5.College, Lakhaoti, Bulandshahr, (U.P.) during rabi seasons of 1989-90 and 1990-91. The treatments consisted of five planting systems/row ratios (1) wheat (w), (2) Linseed (L), (3) Wheat + linseed (WL), (4) Wheat + linseed (W?:L) and (5) Wheat + linseed (WL) with four nitrogen levels (0,25,50 and 75 kg/ha) with an uniform basal dressing of 40 kg/ha each of phosphorus and potassium. The wheat and linseed crops were planted in rows 30 cm apart and linseed was planted in between, to give these row ratios. The 20 treatment combinations were tested in a Randomised Block Design with three replications. The crops were planted on November 6 in 1989-90 and November 9 in 1990-91. All cultural practices other than the treatments were adopted as per normal recommendations. The salient results of the investigation are briefed in this Article.
