Response of Different Plant Spacing and Nutrients on Physiological Parameters of Greengram Under Irrigated Condition
Journal Title: International Journal of Agricultural Science and Research (IJASR) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 5
Abstract
Green gram or mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) is one of the most important food legumes grown and consumed in India. The comprising of various plant spacing, soil and foliar application of fertilizers at varying levels influenced the Leaf area index and Crop growth rate at various stages of crop growth. The plant spacing plays an important role in the dominance and suppression during the process of competition. Soil application of nutrients will give the initial boost for growing seedlings. Use of growth regulators is one of the potent force in improving the growth, flower initiation and yield of agricultural crop especially pulses. The adoption of planting spacing of 30 × 30 cm, application of recommended dose of fertilizer (RDF), 12.5 tonnes of Farm yard manure (FYM) and 25 kg Zinc Sulphate (ZnSO4) as basal and foliar spraying of 1% potassium nitrate (KNO3) at 50 per cent flowering (T10) was recorded highest LAI and CGR at all stages of crop growth.
