A field experiment was conducted during Kharif 2014 and Rabi 2014-15 at Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Sri Muktsar Sahib (Punjab), to find out the best suitable cropping system of the area. The ground water in the area is not fit for irrigation in most of the villages however, the canal water in the district is in sufficient quantity. Twelve cropping systems were evaluated for their production potential and economics. Out of these, seven cotton based and five rice based cropping systems were raised under irrigated condition with recommended package of practices. Among cotton based cropping system, Bt cotton-onion (235.5q/ha) followed by desi cotton-wheat (123.3 q/ha) gave the higher rice equivalent yield as compared to all other cropping system. Higher rice equivalent yield under Bt cotton-onion cropping system was due to the higher bulb yield and market price of only onion crop and Kharif crop under this cropping system failed to produced any difference among cotton yield from other cotton based cropping system. The lower rice equivalent yield was obtained in Bt cotton-gobhi sarson (100 q/ha) and Bt cotton-barley (104 q/ha) cropping systems. Among rice based cropping system rice equivalent yield was higher under direct seeded basmati-wheat (142.2 q/ha) and basmati-wheat (141.1 q/ha) cropping systems and lower under direct seeded rice-barley cropping system. However, among all cropping system, Bt cotton-onion (Rs. 225373/ha) gave the higher net return followed by direct seeded basmati-wheat (Rs. 143617/ha) and basmati-wheat (Rs. 140105/ha) as compared to all other cropping system. Higher net return under these cropping systems was due to the higher market price of onion and basmati crop during this year.Keywords

Brassica crops are the important source of edible oil in India, but traditional low yielding genotypes should be replaced with the improved genotypes to meet edible oil requirement of the country domestically. A field study was conducted during Rabi 2013-14 and 2014-15 to test the yield response of new genotypes of rapeseed mustards at different locations in Sri Muktsar Sahib district of Punjab. New raya genotype, RLC 3 gave higher average yield (15.21 q/ha) as compared to local check RLC 1 (14.8q/ha). African sarson genotype PC 10 also produced higher average grain yield (16.48q/ha) as compared to local check (15.32q/ha). The incidence of white rust disease was not observed in new genotypes, whereas Alternaria blight incidence was lower as compared to local checks. New genotypes also gave higher per hectare net return as compared to respective local checks. Overall net return from African sarson was better as compared to raya.Keywords
