Abstract

An experiment was conducted in completely randomized block design replicated thrice with seed treatments consisted of control, cold water soaking, hot water soaking, acid treatment, scarification, cow dung pelleting, panchakavya soaking to ascertain their effects on the field performance of Mucuna pruriens. The highest percentage of germination (93) was recorded in scarification treatment. The growth, yield attributes and yield (208.2 g) were superior in scarifcation treatment followed by acid treatment (202.3 g). The lowest growth, yield attributes and yield were registered in control
