Rotation Experiment with Sesamum

Abstract

An experiment conducted to find out the most suitable and remunerative crop rota- tion involving the Sesamum crop indicates that adopting rotational cropping fetches higher yield from Sesamum than by cropping it repeatedly. Sesamum responds better when rotated with groundnut then with Cholam or Cumbu, Crop rotation fetches high yield and maximum economic returns. Contrary to the popular belief Sesamumt crop does not depress the yield of the succeeding crop be it a cereal or legume but increases their yield.
