The effect of salinity on the crop growth varies with the stage of the crops. Even crops tolerant to salinity at the later stages are highly susceptible at the stage of germination. The sensitivity of crops at the early stage results in the uneven stand of crop and poor growth of seedlings. The study of the performance of crop in the early stages under saline conditions will throw light on the future work. Generally, ragi (Eleusine coracana) is considered to be resistant crop to salinity. The study of early vigour and germination will provide useful information on the relative performance of the crop in the field. The present investigation is devoted to the study on the response of three varieties of ragi to varying levels of salinity.
