A field experiment was carried out during rabi season of 2004- 05 and 2005-06 in sandy loam soil to study the response of Frenchbean (rajmash) to irrigation schedules and nitrogen levels. Scheduling of irrigation at 1.0 IW/CPE ratio was significantly better than 0.8 or 0.6 IW/CPE ratios or irrigating the crop at pre flowering and pod development stages in terms of yield and yield attributes. Similarly, application of nitrogen @ 150 kg ha-1 increased the yield of frenchbean significantly over 75 or 100 or 125 kg ha-1 during both the years of study.
