Abstract
Proper adaptation of tillage systems and selection of superior varieties are
important factors that control crop growth and yield. Therefore, a field study employing Split Plot Technique in RCB factorial design with four blocks was conducted comprised of three tillage systems (zero tillage, minimum tillage, and conventional tillage) and six mungbean entries (EGM 97-314-7, EGM 97-324-5, EGM 97-327-1, EGM 98-391, EGM 05-717, and NSIC Mg 17). The study was conducted at the Demonstration Farm, Bacnotan, La Union from November 21, 2015 to February 13, 2015. Based on the findings of the study, planting of mungbean in minimum tillage performed best in terms of number of days to emergence, flowering, maturity, plant height, survival rate, number of pods per plant and seed yield. Mungbean entry like EGM 05-717 proved to be significantly the tallest, produced the most number of pods and number of seeds per pod while EGM 98-391 was found comparable with NSIC Mg 17 in terms of seed yield. The interactions of mungbean entries EGM 98-391 and EGM 05-71 planted in minimum tillage were significantly comparable in terms of seed yield. EGM 98-391 grown in minimum tillage proves to be the most profitable among all the treatment interactions.
