    Abstract Effective broad-spectrum herbicides are needed to address the issues of herbicide resistance and weed shifts in common cropping systems. A field experiment was conducted in 2016 and 2017 in West Bengal, India to compare the performance of three post-emergence herbicides (bispyribac-sodium; fenoxaprop-p-ethyl; penoxsulam) in monsoon rice (Oryza sativa L.) and their residual effects on succeeding rapeseed (Brassica rapa L.). Rice yield loss due to competition with Echinochloa colona (L.) Link, Leersia hexandra Sw., Cyperus iria L., Ludwigia parviflora L., and Monochoria vaginalis (Burm f.) C. Presl. Ex Kunth was 64% compared with weed-free control. Bispyribac-sodium 10% SC applied at 30 g a.i. ha⁻¹ 20 days after transplanting reduced weed density over the weedy control, ranging from 37% (M. vaginalis) to 87% (L. hexandra). Fenoxaprop-p-ethyl and penoxsulam applied, respectively, at 86 and 20 g a.i. ha⁻¹ were effective in controlling grasses, but less effective against sedges and broadleaves. Bispyribac-sodium application resulted in highest rice yield (5.45 t ha⁻¹), net return (Indian Rupees 42,677 ha⁻¹), and benefit cost ratio (1.72). Bispyribac-sodium had neither adverse effect on soil microbes nor phytotoxic effect on rice and subsequent rapeseed. We recommend bispyribac-sodium for weed control in transplanted rice under rice-rapeseed system in eastern India.

    Abstract In this study, we employed two multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods, namely the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) and the Analytic Hierarchic Process (AHP), to determine the best management choice for the cultivation of wheat with a regime of conservation agriculture (CA) practices. By combining alternative tillage approaches, such as reduced tillage and zero tillage, with the quantity of crop residues and fertilizer application, we were able to develop the regime of CA practices. The performance of the regimes compared to the conventional ones was then evaluated using conflicting parameters relating to energy use, economics, agronomy, plant protection, and soil science. TOPSIS assigned a grade to each alternative based on how close it was to the ideal solution and how far away it was from the negative ideal solution. However, employing AHP, we determined the weights of each of the main and sub-parameters used for this study using pairwise comparison. With TOPSIS, we found ZERO1 (0% residue + 100% NPK) followed by ZERO4 (50%residue + 100% NPK), and ZERO2 (100% residue + 50% NPK) were the best performing tillage-based alternatives. To best optimize the performance of wheat crops under various CA regimes, TOPSIS assisted the decision-makers in distinguishing the effects of the parameters on the outcome and identifying the potential for maneuvering the weak links. The outcomes of this investigation could be used to improve management techniques for wheat production with CA practices for upscaling among the farmers.

    Abstract Zero and reduced tillage practices along with other measures like crop residue management play a great role in conservation agriculture towards energy conservation. In this study, energy budgeting and optimization were carried out for rice-wheat-green gram cultivation in three different tillage systems viz. conservation tillage, reduced tillage and zero tillage along with five different residue and fertilizer doses. Energy was optimized by Data Envelopment Analysis approach considering two models, namely BCC and CCR models with 15 decision making units. Total energy input was minimum in ZT with 0% residue retention (74,688 MJ ha ⁻¹) which was about 50% less than the maximum energy input (150,392 MJ ha ⁻¹) in conservation tillage with 100% residue retention. Maximum yield energy (120,334 MJ ha⁻¹) was found in reduced tillage with 0% paddy straw residue + 100% N.P.K and the minimum yield energy (84,809 MJ ha⁻¹) was found in zero tillage with 100% paddy straw residue + 50% N.P.K. According to the CCR model, only 20% and according to the BCC model, 40% DMUs were using input energy efficiently and others used input energy inefficiently. Using optimized energy input values, an average of 4027 MJ ha⁻¹ (9.21%) energy could be saved for rice-wheat-green gram cropping system.

    Abstract Degradation of agricultural and forest lands is a global problem causing climate change, loss of biodiversity, ecosystem services, and environmental hazards. In the red and lateritic soils of the northeast, central and southern India, land degradation remains a major problem affecting the lives of millions of people. Agroforestry systems with appropriate combinations of arable crops, horticultural trees, and forest tree species are suggested as effective strategies to combat land degradation by restoring biodiversity and ecosystem services but the scientific evidence is lacking for red and lateritic soils of northeast India. In response, a forest deciduous tree species Gmelina [Gmelina arborea Roxb.], a fruit tree mango [Mangifera indica L.], and a legume crop pigeon pea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.] were grown solely or in various combinations for ten years (July 2009 to June 2019) in the red and lateritic soil of West Bengal, India to evaluate their role in the restoration of degraded land and the potential for offering multiple ecosystems services. Eleven indicators were selected for evaluating the multifunctionality of ecosystem services having synergies between them. Results after ten years of field experiments revealed that the Gmelina-mango-pigeon pea agroforestry system has provided multiple ecosystem goods like edible seeds (pigeon pea), fruits (mango), fuelwood and timber (mango/Gmelina) sequentially, and was 2–3 times more profitable in terms of net present value compared to sole Gmelina or mango or pigeon pea. This system also offered greater climate resiliency with 1–2 times higher annual biomass production, thus offsetting greenhouse gases emission. The composite evaluation index demonstrated that this system offers the highest level of multifunctionality of multiple ecosystem services. Evidence from this long-term experimentation suggests that the crop-fruit tree-forest tree-based agroforestry system has the potential to restore the land productivity of the degraded red and lateritic soils and provide multiple ecosystem services to millions of people dependent on such land. This system could potentially be out-scaled in many other similar agroecological zones of the world.

    Abstract Use of huge amount (1450–1650 mm) of arsenic contaminated (14.0–24.5 mg l⁻¹) ground water to irrigate winter rice resulted in high deposition of arsenic (As) in the topsoil and in rice grains, posing a serious threat to soil and human health of the Bengal basin. Strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) requires 250 mm irrigation and fetches 3.5 times more net return over the winter rice, and can be grown as an alternate crop in place of winter rice to save the environment. In comparison to rice As load in edible parts of strawberry reduced from 865 to 39 μg kg⁻¹. Deficit irrigation (0.8 and 0.6 crop evapotranspiration, ETc) to strawberry further reduced total as well as different As species load in fruits. Jute and straw mulches recorded lower As in fruits over other mulches. Drip irrigation to recharge full or 80% of ETc loss and use of jute agrotextile surface mulch maximized root growth and yield in strawberry, benefit:cost ratio, and energy efficiency and productivity. Results demonstrate that strawberry cultivation in non-traditional winter rice growing areas of Bengal basin can potentially benefit millions of people by reducing As load in food chains, ensuring higher returns, and aid in reviving the local jute agrotextile industry.
