GRAIN YIELD OF SORGHUM

Field experiment was conducted at Regional Agricultural Research Station, Nandyal during post rainy season (maghi), 2015-16 to study the response of white sorghum to irrigations and nitrogen levels. The results of the experiment revealed that the available nitrogen status was higher with the applica[r]

An experiment comprised of six male sterile lines, eight inbred testers of pearl millet, their 48 hybrids and two standard check (GHB-538 and GHB-558) was conducted at Regional Research Station, Anand Agricultural University, Anand, Gujarat in Kharif 2014 for studying the extent of hybrid vigour in[r]

The efficiency of a breeding programme depends mainly on the direction and magnitude of the association between yield and its components and also the relative importance of each factor involved in contributing to grain yield. The path analysis provides an effective measure of direct and indirect cau[r]

A field experiment was carried out at the Research Farm, Division of Agronomy, Sher-eKashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology, Jammu during the kharif season of 2014 to evaluate the effect of different transplanting dates and organic nutrient sources on growth and yield potential o[r]

The field experiment on farm trial (OFT) was conducted on effect of balanced fertilizers doses of fertilizers and foliar spray of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium on grain yield of Wheat during the Rabi season of the year 2013-14 in order to develop fertilizer prescriptions for the desired yield t[r]

In the changing climate scenario, drought could be continued as a major abiotic limitation for crop productivity. Finger millet although known for its drought tolerance, the drought stress decreases the grain yield from 25 to 100 percent depending on the duration and magnitude of drought stress. Pre[r]

The present investigation was undertaken to study the nature and magnitude of genetic divergence for grain yield and its component characters among the inbred lines to provide a basis for selection of parents for hybridization in Pearl millet hybridization programme.

Twenty four newly developed maize hybrids along with three commercial checks were evaluated for their yield performance at three locations under heat stress and optimal conditions. Pooled analysis of variance revealed significant differences among hybrids for grain yield. Mean sum of squares due to[r]

Thirteen rabi sorghum genotypes were studied for root traits in rabi 2013-14 at All India Sorghum Improvement Project, Mahatma Phule Krishi Vidyapeeth, Rahuri in Phule Root Box Structure under receding soil moisture. The genotypes were sown on exclusively receding soil moisture under rainout shelter[r]

To find the performance of Oat Genotypes for fodder yield under Ladakh conditions, the research was conducted at High Mountain Arid Agriculture Research Institute, Leh SKUAST- KASHMIR during kharif season 2017-2018.The experiment consists of six genotypes including check (SKO-90, JHO-851, JHO-996, S[r]

The study was conducted to evaluate the performance of 100 maize hybrids and to assess the association between yield and yield component traits of maize hybrids. The Experiment was carried out in randomized complete block designs (RCBD) with three replications in 2017 main cropping season. The analy[r]

The study was conducted to determine the correlation and path coefficients among the yield and yield component characters in 14 parental lines and 91 hybrids of pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L. R.

Thirty two hybrids developed from crossing four CMS lines with 8 restorers were studied among with parents for 14 yield and yield attributing characters. Among the male parental lines, JGL 18047, IET 26264 and RNR 26060 appeared the best general combiners for yield and important yield component trai[r]

Drought is a major constraint in rice- growing areas of Asia. Identification of genomic regions containing QTLs governing drought tolerance traits is inevitable for developing novel genotypes with enhanced drought tolerance. A RIL population of 122 lines derived from a cross of Daggaddeshi/Danteswar[r]

A field experiment was conducted during Rabi 2013-14 and 2014-15 at Chandra Shekhar Azad University of Agriculture and Technology, Kanpur with a view to assess the effect of methods of sowing and integrated nutrient management on growth, yield attributes grain yield and economics in late sown wheat[r]

The BUCAP and NARC usually organize meetings and field trips to discuss and exchange experiences whit farmers 2-3 times per season. During these meetings also general problems about budget and technical issues are discussed. Attending farmers in FFS are trained to understand variety crossing, geneti[r]
