Abstract


Investigations were carried out at the All India Coordinated Research Project for Dryland Agriculture, Kovilpatti, to study the effect of mulching on soil moisture. Though the effectiveness of mulching in conserving soil moisture is well understood. its effect on the yield of cotton (MCU. 6) Kapas is still not quite clear. Among the various treatments no one particular mulch was outstanding in any of the 3 years in conserving soil moisture in blacksoil.
