Abstract


Field experiments conducted during 1979-80 and 1980-81 at Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi to study the nutrient accumulation pattern in two barley types (DL-85 hulled and 18-65 hull less) revealed that nutrient accumulation was more at initial stages of crop growth and it declined with the age of the crop. At harvest, the nitrogen and phosphorus content in the grain showed an increasing trend, while a decreasing trond was observed in case of straw. The reverse was true in case of potassium content. Hull-less barloy recorder higher nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium content than hulled barley.
