Response of Long and Medium Duration Varieties of Finger Millet (Eleusine coracana (L.) Gaertn.) to Farm Yard Manure and Nitrogen

Abstract

Field experiments were conducted for three seasons to find out the response of medium and long duration varieties of finger millet to nitrogen and farm yard manure, The results revealed that the application of farm yard manure at 25 tonnes/ha did not sig nificantly increase the grain viclds in both medium and long duration varieties. Applica- tion of N at 112.5 kg/ha to both medium and long duration varieties of finger millet was the optimum and economical dose.
