Abstract

A field experiment entited “Effect of different sowing dates and varieties on growth and yield of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) Under Prayagraj conditions” was conducted during the Rabi season of 2021-2022. The experiment was set at forestry field of Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture Technology and Science Prayagraj U.P.

In cases plant growth parameters of Barley maximum was recorded under 15th November as compared to 30th October and 15th October and in case of varieties maximum growth, plant height, no of tillers per plant, dry weight of per plant, length of spike, grain spike per plant, test weight, grain yield, straw yield, was recorded with 15th nov RD 2052 variety as compared to 15th Oct. Parth and 30th Oct.
