Abstract: An experiment was carried out during Rabi (October, 2016 to January, 2017) to examine the effect of different plastic color mulches viz., white on black, silver on black and complete black on growth and of yield of French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) variety Arka Komal under different drip irrigation levels. The irrigation levels used were 60, 80, 100 and 120 per cent of ET. The trial consisted of sixteen treatments replicated four times. The experiment was laid out in spilt plot design. Among coloured plastic mulches, white on black plastic mulch produced highest plant height (38.68 cm), number of branches (6.00), yield per plant (252.71 g) and yield per hectare (11.14 t ha-1).Among the irrigation levels, 80 per cent ET recorded highest values for plant height (33.73 cm), number of branches (7.13), yield per plant (300.67 g) and yield per hectare (14.06 t ha-1). The interaction effect revealed that white on black plastic mulch with 80 per cent ET exhibited better plant height(33.73 cm), number of branches (7.13), yield per plant (300.67 g) and yield per hectare (14.06 t ha-1) compared to other treatments.
