SUB SURFACE DRIP IRRIGATION STUDIES ON SEED AND FIELD QUALITY OF GROUNDNUT CV. VRI 2

ABSTRACT
A study was conducted to evaluate the surface and subsurface fertigation application effects on groundnut seed crop performance, under two methods of sowing ( conventional method and ridges and furrows) and at two levels of potential evapo-transpiration (SSDI at 75% and 100 %). The experimental results indicated that the sowing in ridges and furrows with subsurface drip irrigation at 100% potential evapo-transpiration led to a greater seed yield with higher seed quality.
