Potato based organic cropping system

Field experiments were laid out in split-plot design with three modes of production (organic, integrated and inorganic) in main plots and four rice-based cropping systems [basmati rice-vegetable pea + coriander (CS1), basmati rice-chickpea + coriander (CS2), basmati rice-potato (CS3) and basmati rice-wheat (CS4)] in sub-plots with three replications in 2016 and 2017. Results revealed that organic mode of production resulted in higher growth and yield of basmati rice than inorganic mode of production during 13th and 14th year of the experimentation.
