(ii) Tuber yield/hill (gm)
The weight of tubers/hill was significantly influenced both by irrigation
(Table1) and by potato cultivars (Table 2). It was found that among the irrigation
treatments statistically highest (535.55) tuber yield/hill was attained with I4 whereas
the lowest (273.66) was with I1. The lowest amongst all (189.25) was obtained in
non-irrigated treatment.
The cultivar Heera (Table 2) produces numerically the highest amount of
tubers/hill (414.49) which statistically differed with the rest of cultivars in which
Cardinal produced the lowest (310.41)
The interaction of irrigation regimes and potato cultivars had significant
effect on weight of tubers/hill (Table 3). Here also Heera with I4 produced
statistically the highest amount (613.42) of tubers/hill among the treatments.
