INFLUENCE OF PLANT DENSITY ON YIELD AND QUALITY OF KM, 9 HYBRID BAJRA SEED

Abstract

                                A field experiment was conducted to compare the spacings viz.. (1) 30 x 10 cm. (ii) 30 * 20cm (ii) 45 * 10cm (iv y * 45 * 15c . (v) 45 * 20 cm and (vi) 60 x 20 cm on the KM. 2 hybrid seed yield and quality Height of plant. number of total and produ- tive tillers. yield of seed, field emergence and vigour index varied singnificantly among the treatments. A spacing of 30 * 10 cm recorded the maximum height but minimum number of total and productive tillers and the lowest seed yield. In contrast. spacing of 60 * 20 cm recorded the minimum height, maximum number of both total and produ tive tillers, and the highest field emergence. However, the highest seed yield was recorded in 45 * 20 cm spacing.
