Effect of Spacing and Levels of Phosphorus on the Growth and Yield of Green Gram (Vigna radiata) under Rainfed Condition of Nagaland
Year: 2020
Type: article
Abstract: The field experiment conducted in the experimental farm of School of Agricultural Sciences and Rural Development (SASRD), Nagaland University during kharif season (June- September) of 2016 revealed that spacing at 30 x 10 cm recorded significantly the higher plant height (48.10 cm), number of leaves (5.47), shoot dry weight (2.88 g plant-1), LAI (2.88) and yield attributes such as number of pods plant-1 (17.00), length of pods (6.81 cm), seed yield (688.54 kg ha-1) and stover yield (1917.81 kg ha-1) respectively. Application of phosphorus at 40 kg ha-1 recorded significantly the higher plant height (49.37 cm) , number of leaves (5.73), shoot dry weight (3.34 g plant-1) , LAI (3.34) , CGR (6.37 g m-2 day-1) and yield attributes such as number of pods plant-1 (17.56) , length of pods (6.91 cm), seed yield (737.42 kg ha-1) and stover yield (1973.01 kg ha-1) respectively.
