Abstract


From a field trial laid out with five clones of Conchrus ciliaris four seed harvests were made within a period of 12 months. The seed yield differences were significant among clones as well as between harvests within each clone. Of the several factors that contributed towards seed yield, extent of seed set played a major role. Summer season and early monsoon period appear to be ideal for harvesting high seed yields.
