It varies form location to location, soil and environmental condition.
A field experiment was conducted during rabi seasons of 2000-04 as on-farm trial at nine villages distributed in two districts viz. Jorhat and Golaghat districts of Assam, India to find out the relative performance of different rabi crops in rice fallow under rainfed ecosystem on yield and water use efficiency. A number of crops can be grown successfully after monocropped Kharif rice. In Jorhat district, brinjal, cabbage, tomato and potato may be the best suitable crop after rice for diversification, while in Golaghat district, tomato, potato, linseed, pea and pumpkin can be grown successfully. Tomato gave highest rice equivalent yield, highest WUE and cost: benefit ratio if grown after rice in Golaghat district. In Jorhat district, brinjal gave highest cost: benefit ratio, better yield and WUE. Potato, cabbage, pea and pumpkin also gave higher yield, WUE and profitability after Kharif rice as sequential crop under rainfed condition in the districts under study. Key words: Crop diversification, productivity, rabi crops, WUE.
six vegetable crops based cropping pattern such as Red amaranth-
Potato-Coriander-Indian Spinach-Ladies finger-Cauliflower and Red amaranth-Potato-
Indian spinach-Ladies finger-Coriander-Red amaranth are agronomically feasible and
economically profitable cropping pattern.
Due to intensive growing of six vegetable crops in a year in the same piece of land cropping intensity and productivity were sharply increased. More employment opportunity
for male and female labors is generated at the same time due to the increased
production of seasonal and off season vegetables. The food and nutritional
security is ensured for the farmers and the nation as a whole.
@ Shujaat Ali, you have focused on intensive cropping system and suggested six vegetable based agronomically feasible and economically profitable cropping pattern. It is highly valuable information and will generate employment. It will a step towards farmers doubling income. Thank you very much.
Now some people are very conscious about their health and they try to follow healthy diet chart. I saw most of the people like these Vegetable in their diet chart.
