Field experiments were carried out during 2005-07 to assess the effect of land congigyration and nutrient management in pearl millet (pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br. Emend stuntz)-Indian mustard (Brassica juncea (L.) czernjscoss) cropping system. The principal findings revealed thst ridge and furrow sowing method improved grain yield 912.5 and 11.1%) stover yield (14.9 and 9.5%) protein content (0.96 and 1.6%) total N (15.5 and 12.6%) and P (16.8 and 29.0%) uptake, net returns (20.1 and 16.2%) and pearl millet equivalent yield and production efficiency in pearl millet and also to succeeding mustard over the flat sowing respectively. The integrated application of 30 kg N+20kg P2O+ farmyard manure @ 6 tonnes/ha gave significantly higher grain yield (33.5 and 37.9%) Stover yield (29.8 and 36.7%) protein content (6.9 and 13.8%), total N (56.2 and 55.5%) and P (55.2 and 68.7%) uptake, net return (38.7 and 39.3%) and peral millet equivalent yield and production efficacy to pearl millet and succeeding mustard respectively over the control and remained at par with 60 kg N + 40 kg P2O5/ha. However direct mustard gave significantly higher seed yield (37.9 and 9.2%), stalk yield (32.6 and 6.6%) protein content (15.3 and 5.8%) total N (53.7 and 13.6% and P (52.9 and 13.6%) uptake, net returns (18.9 and 22.6%) pearl millet equivalent yield production efficiency in pearl millet-mustard cropping system over the control and 30 kg N+20kg P2O5/ha respectively.
