Rice (Oryza sativa L.) and Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is the most extensively cultivated cereal crops in India and other countries. In the experiment, for crop residue management in rice wheat cropping system various farm machines were used viz., zero till happy seeder (T1), mulcher + zero till drill (T2), zero till drill (T3). In T2 treatment fuel consumption was measured higher as compared to other treatments because there are used two machines. Happy seeder was cut higher length of straw as compared to rotary mulcher. T1 and T2 were higher conservation of moisture content of the soil caused by incorporation of rice straw. A maximum weight of 1000 grain (49.70g) was measured in T2 treatment. Highest energy (5214.11 MJ/ha) consumption and cost requirement (2452.11₹/ha) were measured in case of conventional system.
