Production potential of maize based cropping system under rainfed conditions

Field experiments were conducted for two years to evaluate the production potential of some maize based cropping systems under rainfed conditions. Rotations that involved leguminous crop as cereal-oilseed or cereal-fallow crop rotations both in respect of net income as well as total grain production. Maize+arhar-wheat gave maximum net revenue per year whereas keeping the land fallow during rabi season {maize-fallow} proved to be most inferior enterprise in respect of net revenue per year.
