The field experiment was conducted on watermelon (Citrullus lanatus Thunb) cv. Kiran in summer season for two consecutive years viz., 2015 and 2016 at Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Krishi Vidyapeeth, Parbhani. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of different mulches (black plastic mulch, transparent plastic mulch, soybean strawmulch and control)on root zone temperature, growth and fruit yield characters of watermelon under different irrigation levels. Among the mulches soil temperature in transparent and black plastic mulch applications were higher (2.5 – 5.3 0C and 2.2 – 3.0 0C respectively) than control. In case of soybean straw mulch, lower mean soil temperature was recorded on an average 0.6 0C (0.3 – 1.2 0C) than control during both the years of experimentation. | Effect of various mulches and irrigation levels on root zone temperature, growth and fruit yield of watermelon (Citrullus lanatus T.) cv.
