The present study entitled Impact of drip irrigation scheduling and water use efficiency on tomato (Lycopersicon Esculentum) was carried out at Department of Agricultural Sciences and Engineering, IFTM University, Moradabad in 2016–17. The effect different irrigation schedules viz. one hour in one-day interval, two hours in two-day interval, three hours in three-day interval and four hours in four-day interval was observed to assess the drip irrigation scheduling on growth and fruit quality of tomato, and determine the benefit-cost (B-C) ratio. The three hours in three-day interval was significantly superior on the basis of plant height, fruit weight, yield and water use efficiency.
