Abstract:

Among the response of different hybrids to levels of nitrogen, treatment T9 i.e., V3 + 100:45:45 kg ha-1 NPK, recorded maximum plant height (175.30cm), number of tillers plant-1 (3.67), dry weight (47.73g), crop growth rate (1.53 g m-2 day-1), relative growth rate (0.052 g g-1 day-1), number of ear plant-1 2.37, length of ear (27.52cm), number of Grains ear-1 (2406.49),test weight (10.29g), grain yield (3.72 t ha-1), straw yield(6.98 t ha-1), protein content (13.43%)) and harvest index (36.15%). Whereas the lowest value in terms of plant height (164.47cm), number of tillers (2.60 plant-1), dry weight (40.80g), crop growth rate (1.30 g m-2 day-1), relative growth rate (0.045 g g-1 day-1), number of ear (1.37 plant-1), grain yield (2.47 t ha-1) and straw yield (4.62 t ha-1) was observed in the treatment T1 i.e., V1 + 80:45:45 kg ha-1 NPK). Further, ear length of (21.16cm) was observed in the treatment T8 i.e., V3 + 90:45:45 kg ha-1 NPK). In terms of number of grains (2406.49 ear-1), test weight (8.04 g) was recorded in the treatment T5 i.e., V2 + 90:45:45 kg ha-1 NPK). Further, protein content (9.48%) was observed in the treatment T5 i.e., V2 + 90:45:45 kg ha-1 NPK) and harvest index (19.01%) respectively in the treatment T4 i.e., V 2+ 80:45:45 kg ha- 1 NPK).


Keywords: Kharif hybrid pearlmillet, Levels of nitrogen, Plant height, Weight and yield.
