EFFECT OF DRY SEEDING PERIODS, SEED TREATMENTS AND DEPTH OF SOWING ON PERCENTAGE EMERGENCE OF GROUNDNUT SEEDS

Abstract

A pot experiment was conducted to know the effect of dry seeding period, seed treatments, and depth of sowing on the percentage emergence of groundnut cv GAUG-1. It was found that dry seeding to the depth of four cm and upto 2.5 days with seed dressed by fungicide (Thirum @ 3 g/kg seed) and insecticide (Linden @3 g/kg seed) proved superior with highest percentage emergence.
