Energy analysis of soybean- wheat crop rotation under rainfed conditions of Central India

M. Shyam and L.P. Gite

Energy, 1990, vol. 15, issue 10, 907-912

Abstract: The energetics of soybean-wheat crop rotation under the rainfed conditions of Central India have been worked out and compared with the traditional practice of fallow-wheat. The energy output-input ratio for soybean-wheat rotation is 8.45 vs 6.90 for the traditional monocropping practice. Soybean-wheat rotation also offers more and year-round employment for manual labourers.
