Abstract


Experiments conducted during rabi 1977 and kharif 1978 at the Tirupati compus of the Andhra Pradesh Agricultural University indicated that growth regulators signifi- cantly increased yield attributes and pod yield of groundnut while haulm yield, decre- ased in both the seasons. Both yield attributes and pod yield were maximum while halum yield was minimum with SADH 1000 ppm ciosely followed by MH 50 ppm in both the seasons. A plant density of 0.50 million plants/ha (20 x 10 cm) and foliar spray of SADH 1000 ppm or MH 50 ppm at 30 and 50 days after sowing were equally effective for the improvement of pod yield of TMV 2 groundnut on sandy loam soils. There were no interactions between growth regulators and plant densities in both the seasons.
