Abstract: Ph.D. research on “Agro-resource management studies on growth, yield, quality and economics of linseed (Linum usitatissimum Linn.) grown after rice in Alfisols of Chhattisgarh plains” was conducted during rabi seasons of 2009-10 and 2010-11 at Research cum Instructional Farm, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur with the specific objectives to study the interaction effect of sowing methods and fertilizer management on growth, yield, nutrient uptake, oil content and economics of linseed varieties. Two different experiments on linseed crop were undertaken during two consecutive rabi seasons of 2009-10 and 2010-11. The experiment was sown on 26^th November, 2010 and harvested on 24^th March, 2011. Based on 2 years experimentation it is concluded that treatment line sowing x RLC-92 (S₁V₁) registered significantly oil content as well as maximum oil yield. Among the fertilizer levels, maximum oil yield was obtained under 50% more RDF (F₂) followed by RDF + S (F₁) during both the years and on mean basis.
