Field experiment was conducted during winter seasons of 1993–94 and 1994–95 to study
the effect of irrigation and nitrogen levels on periodical plant height, number of primary
branches and dry matter accumulation of Brassica species. Pooled data of two years
showed that Brassica species RH-30, NPC-2 and HC-9001 recorded 178.5, 238.3 and
229.2 cm plant height; 5.5, 10.3 and 10.1 number of primary branches and 45.92, 48.62 and
47.68 g dry matter per plant at harvest, respectively. Irrigation treatment I2 (ID/CPE ratio of …

A field experiment was conducted in Hisar, Haryana, India, during the winter seasons of
1993-94 and 1994-95 to investigate the effect of irrigation and N levels on periodical plant
height, number of primary branches and dry matter accumulation of Brassica juncea cv. RH-
30 and B. carinata genotypes NPC-2 and HC-9001. The treatments comprised 3 irrigation
levels, ie a control (no post-sowing irrigation; I0), irrigation at ID/CPE ratio of 0.25 (one
irrigation; I1), and irrigation at ID/CPE ratio of 0.5 (two-third irrigation; I2), and 4 N levels (0 …
