A field experiment was carried out during rabi 2010-11 to study the growth, yield and quality of gram as influenced by irrigation and sulphur levels. Irrigation and sulphur have shown significant influence on growth, yield, quality, moisture extraction pattern and water use efficiency. Among four irrigation schedules, irrigation scheduled at 0.9 IW/CPE ratio recorded higher values for all the growth parameters at various stages, yield attributes, grain and stover yield, quality parameters as well as net return and BCR while, 0.7 IW/CPE ratio remained on par. Amount of moisture extracted from surface layers was more irrespective of irrigation treatment. Depletion of soil moisture increased and water use efficiency decreased with increasing frequency of irrigation. Application of 40 kg S ha-1 recorded higher grain yield, protein content and protein yield, net return and BCR and remained on par with 20 kg S ha-1. However interaction between sulphur and irrigation levels, 20 kg S ha-1 and 0.7 IW/CPE has reported higher seed yield, net returns and BCR.

Field experiments were conducted during 2012–13 and 2013–14 at Horticulture College and Research Institute, Coimbatore (Tamil Nadu) on black clay loam soil to study the effect of scheduling of drip irrigation on the growth, yield and water use efficiency of turmeric (cv. CO 2). The experiment included two intervals and three levels of irrigation with surface irrigation as control. Significantly higher rhizome yield was recorded in one day interval of irrigation at 80% PE (T2) (42.79 t ha-1) which was on par with two days interval of irrigation at 80% PE (T3) (42.51 t ha-1). Significantly higher number of leaves, leaf area, number of tillers, plant height and dry matter production were recorded in T2 and T3 compared to flood irrigation. Both one day and two days interval of irrigation and 40% PE recorded significantly higher WUE. The intervals and levels of irrigation were significantly superior for WUE, compared to surface irrigation.
