Abstract

                                Experiments were carried out with cotton MCU, 10 in order to find out the effect of pre-sowing chemicals and growth regulators for drought tolerance and high yield under rainfed condition. In the present study, it was found that soaking the cotton seeds either in CCC. 500 ppm or 2 percent KC1 for 12 hours followed by 5 hours shade drying and sown as dry seeding has given an increased kapas yield. under rainfod condition, Above treatments were supported by high Relative Water, Content.. more accumulation of proline, high Chlorophyll Stability Index, more leaf area and high dry matter production during growth period under drought condition.
