International Conference on Reimagining Rainfed Agro-ecosystems: Challenges & Opportunities<br />

during 22-24, December 2022 at ICAR-CRIDA, Hyderabad<br />

A<br />

Conclusion<br />

Hence, it can be concluded that integrated nutrient management (75 % RDF + Compen. through<br />

NPS compost) and intercropping <strong>of</strong> cotton with dhaincha (1:1) were found superior in sustaining<br />

the cotton productivity and improving chemical and biological properties <strong>of</strong> Vertisol under<br />

rainfed conditions in Vidarbha region <strong>of</strong> central India.<br />
