Abstract
A field experiment was conducted during kharif season at Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Allahabad (U.P.). The soil of experimental plot was sandy loam in texture. The treatment consisted of T1-Transplanting+75% RDF, T2-Transplanting+100% RDF, T3-Transplanting+125 % RDF, T4- Broadcasting+75% RDF, T5-Broadcasting+100% RDF, T6- Broadcasting+125% RDF, T7-Line sowing +75%RDF, T8-Line sowing +100%RDF, T9- Line sowing +125%RDF.The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design, with 9 treatments replicated thrice. Results revealed that maximum plant height (94.7 cm), numbers of tillers per plant (7.5), plant dry weight (22.97 g/plant), Effective tillers per m2 (172.3), test weight (3.8 g), number of grains per finger (2240), finger weight (11.4 g), grain yield (3.2 t/ha), straw yield (4.48 t/ha) It can be concluded, that the treatment Transplanting + 125 % RDF was more productive.
