Abstract

An experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2011–12 at College Agronomy Farm, B. A. College of Agriculture, Anand Agricultural University, Anand (Gujarat) to study the effect of irrigation and nitrogen on cress (Lepidium sativum L.). Higher values of growth characters, yield attributes, seed and straw yield were recorded under treatment I4 (0.8 IW: CPE). Each successive increase in the level of N from 40 to 100 kg/ha significantly increased the growth characters, yield attributes, seed and straw yield.
