Phenology of Fingermillet (Eleusine coracana L.) in Relation to AgroClimatic Indices under Different Sowing Dates
Journal Title: International journal of Emerging Trends in Science and Technology - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
A field experiment was conducted during kharif 2015 at Agricultural College Farm, Bapatla on sandy loam soil to study the phenology, accumulated growing degree days, photo thermal unit, helio-thermal unit, heat use efficiency and performance of fingermillet varieties grown under different sowing dates. The crop was sown on 2 nd fortnight of July took maximum calendar days, growing degree days, photo thermal unit, helio-thermal unit to attend different phonological stages till maturity. The genotype sown on 2nd fortnight of July (D2) growth and yielded higher. The highest drymatter (3665kg ha-1 ) at harvest and grain yield (2305 kg ha-1 ) was recorded with (D2) 2nd fortnight of July sowing. Among the varieties Chaitanya took highest calendar days growing degree days, photo thermal unit, helio-thermal unit to reach the maturity. The variety Chaitanya recorded the highest grain yield at 2nd fortnight of July sowing as compared to all other sowing dates.
