Comparative effects of drip and micro sprinkler systems under kinnow + kinnow and kinnow + poplar silvi- horti system were studied under sub tropical climate. Drip system of irrigation was found promising in maintaining better growth of kinnow plants. Kinnow + Poplar system of plantation was found superior over kinnow + kinnow system of plantation under drip irrigation system. Under this system (kinnow + poplar) of plantation, values of plant height at 70% ETC were 2.55 m, canopy volume 23.51 m3, rootstock girth 11.13 cm, scion girth 10.76 cm, and leaf area were 16.07 cm2. Of course, values for all these traits were higher at 100 % ETc under kinnow + kinnow system of plantation over kinnow + poplar system of plantation under drip system but these were at par with each other. Irrigation of kinnow orchards at 100 % ETc was found better irrespective of the systems of irrigation.Downloads
