Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during Rabi 2016 to study the “Residual effect of treated sugar mill effluent irrigation with nutrient management approaches on productivity of cowpea in maize-cowpea cropping system†at M/s Chamundeshwari Sugars Limited, Maddur Taluk, Mandya district which is located in southern dry zone of Karnataka. The experiment was laid out in RCBD having twelve treatments and replicated thrice. The treatments consisting (preceeding maize crop) of T1: Fresh water+ RDF (150: 75: 40 kg ha-1), T2: Fresh water+ STCR approach for targeted maize yield of 120 q ha-1, T3: Fresh water + Soil test based NPK recommendation, T4: Fresh water + SSNM for targeted yield of 120 q ha-1, T5: TSME + RDF, T6: TSME + STCR approach for targeted maize yield of 120 q ha-1), T7: TSME + Soil test based NPK recommendation, T8: TSME + SSNM for targeted yield of 120 q ha-1, T9: TSME with amendment (Gypsum) + RDF, T10: TSME with amendment (Gypsum) + STCR approach for targeted yield of 120 q ha-1, T11: TSME with amendment (Gypsum) + Soil test based NPK recommendation, T12: TSME with amendment (Gypsum) + SSNM for targeted yield of 120 q ha-1. The results revealed that higher seed and haulm yields were noticed with residual effect of TSME irrigation with fertilizer application based on SSNM concept (955 seed yield and 3459 kg ha-1 haulm yield, respectively) along with RDF compared to other residual treatments.
