Abstract
An in-situ moisture conservation study on broccoli grown under rain-fed conditions was undertaken for three years. Of the five treatments, minimum run-off (56.67 mm) was recorded with treatment comprising conservation tillage + black polythene mulek (T3). This treatment gave the highest yield (216.4 q/ha) compared to control (187.12 q/ha). The treatment T3 had good soil moisture retention with lowest weed count (18.41/m2). Grass mulch (10 t/ ha) was also effective.
