ABSTRACT
The field experiment was conducted during two rabi seasons from 12th November, 2014 to 26th April, 2015 and 23rd November, 2015 to 4th May 2016, on sandy clay loam soil at Instructional Farm of Department of Irrigation and Drainage Engineering, College of Agricultural Engineering and Technology, Dr. Balasaheb Sawant Konkan Krishi Vidypeeth, Dapoli, India. The experiment was arranged in twelve treatment combinations with strip plot design as horizontal factor (main treatment) one continuous irrigation (P1), two pulses (P2), three pulses (P3) and four pulses (P4), while vertical factor (sub treatment) as irrigation levels viz., I1 (0.80 ETC), I2 (1.0 ETC) and I3 (1.20 ETC) treatments. It was revealed that the average seasonal water applied to white onion under pulse irrigation (drip) through different irrigation levels was varied from 282.58 mm for I1 (0.8 ETC) to 419.21 mm for I3 (1.2 ETC) irrigation levels. The interaction effect revealed that maximum yield (38.52 ton.ha-1) of white onion was found in treatment combination I2P4 (irrigation level 1.0 ETC and four pulse treatment) followed by I3P4 (irrigation level 1.2 ETC and four pulse treatment), respectively. It was observed that interaction effect of treatment combinations I2P4 (irrigation level 1.0 ETC and four pulse treatment) and I3P4 (irrigation level 1.2 ETC and four pulse treatment) significant higher and at par cost of production of ` 4,47,366 and ` 4,42,962 ha-1, gross returns of ` 9,63,000 and ` 9,31,500 ha-1, net returns of ` 5,15,634 and ` 4,88,538 ha-1 and B:C ratio of 2.15 and 2.10, were observed for I2P4 and I3P4, respectively.
