Abstract


Field experiments were conducted with 5 different sorghum varieties viz., CO 18, CSH 5, CSH 6. CS 4 and composite IX with graded levels of N and P. Potassium application was common. Uptake of N was the highest at maturity stage and lowest at seedling stage. Uptake of N was more with increasing levels of N: Varietal varia- tion with regard to N uptake was also seen. Nitrogen had a favourable effect on P uptake The variety CSH 6 recorded highest P uptake. Uptake values of K showed similar trend of results as in the case of N and P.
