Integrated Production Technology in Hybrid Pearl Millet

Abstract

Effect of sources and time of application of nitrogen with and without azotobac- tor application on growth and yield of hybrid pearl millet (Pennisetum typhoides (Burm 1.) stapf & C.E. Hubb.) was studied at the Regional Station. Indian Agricultural Research Institute, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, kharif seasons of 1976 and 1977. Splitting the nitrogen dose i.e. 20 kg N/ha through FYM. and 20 kg N along with 20 kg P₂0/ ha through fertilizers was found to be the best treatment in augmenting the grain yield of hybrid pearl millet. Azotobactor application did not show any extra benefit.
