| ABSTRACT
|
| |
| Study
on spacing of earthen cylinder as subirrigation for baby corn planting
in Sandy soil was conducted at in Roi-et land development station
in Nampong series between Mar and Apr. 1990 by using RCB design 5
treatments and 4 replications T1 = conventional watering T2 = bury
earthen cylinder spacing 4 feet T3 = bury earthen cylinder spacing
3 feet T4 = bury earthen cylinder spacing 2 feet T5 = bury earthen
cylinder spacing 1 foot Using earthen cylinder contain 5 litters of
water height 38 cm, diameter 13 cm |
| The result
revealed that buried earthen cylinder spacing 2 feet plant gave the
best yield. Therefore, it yielded up to 1 ; 120.30 kg/rai (corn with
husk) or 195.23 kg/rai (grain yield) while conventional watering gave
736.03 and 135.30 kg/rai respectively. In case of pod length, there
was no significant difference between treatments as far as statistical
was concerned. The moisture content in soil showed no different during
first period of planting but there was significant different during
last period of planting. The average spacing 1, 2 and 3 feet was 13.19
