Response of drip irrigated cabbage to polyethylene mulch was evaluated through field experiment framed in randomized block design having six treatments with four replications during November 2013 to February 2014 at Akola. Seasonal water requirement of cabbage was found to be highest (327.4 mm) under irrigation scheduling at 100% ETc (T4, T5, and T6) and lowest (252.2 mm) under irrigation scheduling at 50% moisture depletion of available water capacity under silver polyethylene mulch with drip irrigation. The highest saving of water over control treatment was achieved in T2 (drip + silver mulch, irrigation at 50% of AWC - 22.97%). The treatments with irrigation at 50% depletion of AWC resulted in less yield as compared to counter treatments with irrigation equal to 100% evapotranspiration. No specific pattern of yield in response to water/mulch was observed. Treatment T2 recorded highest water use efficiency followed by treatment T6 (control), T5, T4, T1 and T3. B:C ratio was found maximum for control treatment i.e. T6, while it was minimum for treatment T1. B:C ratio for non-mulch treatments is higher than that for mulch treatments. The B:C ratio for cabbage production under silver mulch was observed higher as compared to that under black mulch in both cases of irrigation scheduling.
