Abstract: At “C” block farm of BCKV, Kalyani, a field experiment was conducted during the summer season of 2018, with split plot design considering two date of sowing [D1:7th march 2018, D2:22nd march 2018] as main plot treatment and four irrigation level [I1: Rainfed, I2: IW/CPE=0.50, I3=IW/CPE=0.75, I4=IW/CPE=1.00] as sub plot treatment. Result revealed that the maximum seed yield (1774.9 kg ha-1) was recorded under early sown crop i.e. D1 which was found to be significantly higher (23%) as compared to D2 (1354.1 kg ha-1). Seed yield of moong bean was significantly influenced by different irrigation schedules. Crop under rainfed condition produced maximum seed yield (1724.1 kg ha-1) and lowest seed yield (1446.7 kg ha-1) was recorded by the treatment having no stress condition. Recorded value showed that all yield attributing character i.e. pod per plant, seed per pod, test weight (g), total seed weight (gm-2) were maximum in early sown crop and the crop grown under rainfed condition among all the irrigation regimes. Highest total biomass was noted under early sown crop and also under I1.
