Abstract

An experiment was conducted in a rahdomized block design to study the microclimate of raya crop under various planting systems, viz., normal sowing in flat beds (SJ, paired row sowing in flat beds (S2) ridge-furrow sowing with one row in each furrow (S3), ridge-furrow' sowing with two rows in each furrow (S4) normal sowing in flat beds with 4th row skipping off (S5) and normal sowing in flat beds with 6th row skipping off (S6). Absorption of photosynthetically active radiation was significantly highest in S4 (79.6 percent) and lowest in S3 (68.0 per cent). Deviation of air temperature, relative humidity with respect to S treatment and wind speed profiles were quantified for microclimatic changes to explain the yield contributing parameters.
