EFFECT OF N, P AND K ON CSH-5 SORGHUM HYBRID SEED CROP. 11. SEED WEIGHT, GERMINATION AND VIGOUR

Abstract

A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of N at 0,100 and 200 kg/ha; and P and K at 0,50 and 100 kg/ha each on the quality of sorghum CSH-5 hybrid seed during the winter season of 1979. Application of N at 100 kg/ha increased the the seed weight significantly than of 0 or 200 kg/ha P and K at 100 kg each increased the weight significantly more than other doses. The dilference in germination due to doses of nutrients was not significant. N and P at 100 Kg/ha each improved, the seed vigour over other doso levels.
