abstract = "The trial was conducted to evaluation the effect of effect of different mulching materials with frequency of irrigations in barley crop under semi-arid conditions, field experiments was carried out in 2018-19 growing season. Experimental units were arranged in Factorial Randomized Block Design (RBD) with three replications. It is evident from several studies that mulching has double actions: controlling weeds and providing soil cover, both of which reduce water loss through reduced transpiration and evaporation and increased availability of soil moisture content cause better growth of plants. Highest growth parameter were measured with application of pulse straw mulch material, similarly all the yield attributes viz. number of effective tillers, ear length (cm), weight of ears (g), number of fertile and sterile spikelets were found more over wheat and saw mulching. Number of irrigation also influenced the growth, yield attributes and yield parameters up to significant level and found more value with application of total three irrigations one at pre sowing and two at stand crop.",
