Abstract

A series of experiments were conducted to determine the economic assessment of various tillage practic es during the maize fallow rotation at NWFP Agricultural University Research Farm, during 1996 - 99. The experiment was laid down in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD). Tillage practices were managed with seven treatments; Cultivator two times (C2), Cultivator four times (C4), Cultivator six times (C 6), Moldboard plow and rotavator once (M1R1), Moldboard plow and disk harrow once (M1H1), Moldboard plow once and disk harrow two times (M1H2) and Disk plow once and cultivator two times (D1C2) and replicated 6 times. Mean highest cost of production was recorded Rs. 8672 ha -1 in the deep tillage treatments (M1R1) and the lowest cost of production was noted Rs. 823 4 ha -1 in the shallow tillage treatments (C2). The mean h ighest gross revenue and net income were obtained Rs. 94593 ha -1 and 85921 ha -1 in the deep tillage treatments (M1R1) and the lowe st were found Rs. 78280 ha -1 and 70047 ha -1 in the shallow tillage treatments (C2) respectivel y. The deep tillage treatments M1R1 appeared to have provided favorable soil environment for vegetative growth and yield of maize crop as compared to shall ow tillage treatments, whose ultimate affect was on the gross revenue and net income of the crop.
