Online published on 21 May, 2018. Abstract Afield experiment was conducted during 2014–15 and 2015–16 on loamy sand soil to study the effect of drip irrigation and fertigation as compared to surface (check basin) irrigation on the pod yield, water use efficiency of garden pea (Pisum sativum var. Punjab 89). The treatments comprised of three levels of drip irrigation in combination with three levels of fertigation and surface irrigation (check basin) was considered as control treatment. The I2F2 (drip irrigation at 80% ET crop along with 80% application of recommended dose of fertilizer produced(183.4q/ha) green pod yield which was 34.2 percent higher as compared to check basinmethod of irrigation (136.7q/ha). Drip irrigation resultedin42.8% savingof irrigation water as compared to check basin method of irrigation. Top Keywords Dripirrigation, Fertigation, Garden pea and Water use efficiency. Top |
