The experiment was done on finger millet during the zaid season of 2021-22 at crop research farm, Department of Agronomy, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences (SHUATS), Prayagraj (Uttar Pradesh). The treatments consisted of three planting geometry viz., 20 cm × 20 cm, 25 cm × 25 cm and 30 cm × 30 cm and three NPK levels viz., 75%, 100% and 125%. The experiment was conducted in randomized block design with nine numbers of treatments and replicated thrice. The results showed that treatment with 30 cm × 30 cm spacing at 125 % NPK /ha growth parameters viz., maximum plant height (69.73 cm), number of tillers per plant (17.36 g/plant), dry weight per plant (7.36 g) while yield were recorded highest with treatment 20 cm × 20 cm spacing at 125 % NPK /ha. viz., Grain yield (45.76 t/ha), Straw yield (4.33 t/ha) and harvest index (44.91) of finger millet at harvest. This may due to the highest plant population with close spacing treatment and higher number of heads/ m2 as compare with wide spacing.

Effect of Plant Geometry and Sulphur on yield, Oil Content and Economics of Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.)

A field experiment entitled “Effect of Plant geometry and Sulphur on yield and Economics of Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.)” was conducted during Zaid season 2021 at Krishi Vigyan kendra, SHUATS, Allahabad, (U.P.). The soil of experimental plot was sandy loam in texture, nearly neutral in soil reaction (pH 6.7). The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with nine treatments consisted of Spacing (25x15cm2,30x15cm2,35x15cm2) and Sulphur (20 kg,30kg,40kg/ha) which were replicated thrice and effect was observed on Gujarat til-4 sesame variety. The result showed that there were significant increase in growth and yield parameters viz., The results obtained that yield parameters such as capsule (35.87/plant), seeds (38.47 /capsule), test weight (2.90 g), seed yield (867.97 kg/ha), stover yield (1554.20 kg/ha), harvest index (39.36%) and oil content (48.32%) were recorded maximum in the treatment combination of 30 cm x 15 cm + 40 kg sulphur at Harvest. However, in economic point of view, maximum gross returns (INR 82,456.83/ha), net returns (INR 56,779.83/ha) and benefit: cost ratio (2.2) were obtained highest in the treatment combination of 30 cm x 15 cm + 40 kg Sulphur respectively.

Effect of planting geometry and potato seed tuber size on weeds and potato tuber yield

A field experiment was conducted during winter (Rabi) seasons of 2014-15 and 2015-16 at Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana, India to study the effect of potato planting geometry (50 × 15 cm, 65 × 11.5 cm, 70 × 10.7 cm and 75 × 10 cm) and seed tuber size (25-35 mm, 35-45 mm, 45-55 mm) on weed density and biomass, and tuber yield of potato. The potato canopy cover was higher and the weed density and biomass were lower with closer planting geometry of 50 × 15 cm followed by 65 × 11.5 cm. The growth attributes (number of stems/plant and leaf area index), tuber number and tuber yield were not significantly influenced by varying planting geometry. Potato seed tuber size exerted a significant effect on weed infestation resulting in significantly lower weed density and biomass with large sized seed tubers followed by medium sized seed tubers as compared to small sized seed tubers. Growth attributes, tuber number and tuber yield of potato were also significantly higher with large sized seed tubers followed by medium sized tubers compared to small sized tubers. Thus, the potato planting geometry of 50 × 15 cm for manual planting by small and marginal farmers and 65 × 15 cm for mechanized potato production along with medium sized seed tubers are the viable options for effective weed management and optimal potato tuber yield.

Planting geometry affects potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) productivity and economics in North-West India

Effect of planting geometry on productivity and economics of potato was studied at research farm, School of Organic Farming, Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana and at farmer fields in Punjab during autumn 2016. The mean total tuber yield did not vary with change in planting geometry from 65cm × 11.5cm to 75cm × 15cm. However, the mean highest seed size (<45mm) tuber yield (11.57 t/ha) was obtained with planting geometry of 65cm × 11.5cm which was statistically at par with 75cm × 10cm. Total and seed size tubers were the highest (712 and 461 thousand/ha, respectively) under 75cm × 10cm and were statistically at par with 65cm × 11.5cm. The seed cost was the highest with 75cm × 10cm and 65cm × 11.5cm (Rs. 107800/ha, each) and the lowest (Rs. 72000/ha) with 75cm × 15cm and was 69% higher in the former cases than the latter. The planting geometries of 65cm × 15cm and 75cm × 15cm gave the higher net returns (Rs. 209100/ha and Rs. 208100/ha, respectively) when grown for seed purpose. However, for ware potato purpose the planting geometries of 65cm × 18.5cm and 75cm × 15cm gave the higher net returns.

Effect of Plant Geometry on Different Rapeseed Varieties under Rainfed Upland Condition in Nepal

The field experiment was carried out during winter of 2018/19 with two varieties (Unnati and Surkhet-Local) and three plant geometry (15cm × 10 cm, 30cm × 10 cm, 45cm × 10cm) in Randomized complete block design (RCBD) with four replications. Statistically there was no difference between two varieties while differences were found on different spacing and interaction between variety and spacing on final seed yield. High significant differences on seed yield was due to spacing and yield of rapeseed were higher at the 30 cm inter row spacing as compared to the 15 cm and 45 cm inter row spacing. Statistically significant effect was found on mean values of seed yield for interaction which showed that Unnati cultivar in 30 cm x 10 cm plant geometry had the highest seed yield (969.86 kg/ha) followed by Surkhet-local with spacing of 15 cm × 10 cm (843.75 kg/ha) and 30 cm × 10 cm (823.76 kg/ha). Yield of these varieties decreased as spacing is increased, thus sowing of Unnati should be done at cropping geometry of 30 cm × 10 cm and for Surkhet-local it should not be done beyond 30 cm inter row spacing to get the maximum potential yield.&#x0D; Int.

Effect of planting geometry on yield attributes and yield of Indian mustard, Brassica juncea L.

The experiment was conducted in rabi 2017-18 at Research Farm, College of Agriculture, Tikamgarh, J.N.K.V.V. (M.P.). The experiment was laid out in split plot design allocating three varieties to main plots and five planting geometries to sub-plots and replicated thrice. Pusa bold, RH-749 and RGN-73 with five planting geometries viz., 30 x 10, 30 x 15, 45 x 10, 45 x 15 and 60 x 10 cm were taken. Among varieties, RGN-73 produced significantly higher number of siliquae (plant-1) followed by RH-749 and Pusa bold. RGN-73 resulted into significantly higher seed, stover, biological yield and Harvest index. Among different planting geometries, 45 cm x 15 cm produced significantly a greater number of siliquae (plant-1), number of seeds, higher 1000-seed weight and higher harvest index (g). However, planting geometry 30 cm x 10 cm produced significantly higher seed yield and biological yield. RGN-73 under plant geometry 45 x 15 cm led to significantly higher yield of mustard and can be recommended.

An investigation was carried out to study the effect of six different plant geometry on growth and yield parameters of capsicum under open ventilated poly house at Horticultural Research Farm, B. A. College of Agriculture, Anand Agricultural University during 2016-17 and 2017-18. Healthy seedlings were transplanted in a plot size of 5.4 m x 2.8 m i.e. 15.12 m2in six different plant geometry i.e. T1: 45 × 30 cm, T2: 45 × 45 cm, T3: 45 × 60 cm, T4: 60 × 30 cm, T5: 60 × 45 cm and T6: 60 × 60 cm. Results of the experiment showed that maximum picking was obtained in plant geometry 45 x 30 cm and 60 x 30 cm. Whereas, the highest number of fruits per plant were recorded in plant geometry 45 x 60 cm and 45 x 30 cm. The highest yield kg/plant was obtained in plant geometry 45 x 60 cm. However, maximum yield (kg/plot and q/1000 m2) was recorded in plant geometry 45 x 30 cm. Thus, plant geometry 45 x 30 cm is most suitable for cultivation of capsicum under open ventilated poly house for getting higher yield.

A field experiment was conducted during Rabi season of the year 2013–14 to study effect of planting geometry and nitrogen on growth, flowering and yield of chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum coronarium L.) at College of Horticulture & Forestry, Jhalawar (Raj.). The experiment consisted of 16 treatment combinations of four spacings (S1-30 cm x 30 cm, S2-30 cm x 45 cm, S3-45 cm x 45 cm, S4-45 cm x 60 cm) and four nitrogen levels (N0-0 kg, N1-100 kg, N2-150 kg, N3-200 kg N/ha). The treatment S4N3 (45 cm x 60 cm spacing + N 200 kg/ha) recorded the maximum plant spread (2643.24 cm2), number of primary branches per plant (41.90), number of leaves per plant (1013.20), leaf width (3.85 cm), leaf length (6.34 cm) and duration of flowering (64.33 days while the treatment S1 N3 (30 cm x 30 cm spacing + N 200 kg/ha) had the maximum plant height (92.58 cm), flower yield per plot (11.85 kg) and flower yield per ha (182.87 q). Application of nitrogen at different levels and planting geometries significantly influenced the number of days taken for first flower bud appearance and 50 percent flowering with the earliest first flower bud appearance (47.33 days) and 50 percent flowering (64.83 days) at S1 (30 cm x 30 cm spacing), similarly nitrogen at N0 (N 0 kg/ha) had the earliest first flower bud appearance (46.75 days) and 50 per cent flowering (63.25 days), while nitrogen at N3 (200kg/ha)had the latest first flower bud appearance (55.33 days) and 50 per cent flowering (69.42 days).

Effect of planting geometry on yield and yield attributes of aromatic rice genotypes

To evaluate the effects of plant spacing on the growth and yield of aromatic rice varieties, a field experiment was carried out at the Agronomy Filed Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh, Bangladesh during aman season. Four plant spacings viz. 25cm x 25cm (S 1 ), 20cm x 20cm (S 2 ), 20cm x 15 cm (S 3 ) and 15 cm x 10cm (S 4 ) and four fine rice varieties viz. Basmoti 370 (V 1 ), BRRI dhan37 (V 2 ), BRRI dhan38 (V 3 ) and Kailijira (V 4 ) were used. As factorial arrangement the experiment was fitted in a randomized complete block design with three replications. All agronomic practices were applied as recommended for each cultivar. The result revealed that the BRRI dhan38 produced the highest 1000-grain weight (19.05g) as well as yield (3.62 t ha -1 ). Oppositely, the V 2 produced the maximum tillers hill -1 (11.7), effective tillers hill -1 (9.5) but the poorest 1000 grain weight (14.81g) compared to V 3 resulting in the second highest grain yield (3.30 t ha -1 ). The highest number of spikelets panicle -1 (175.0), grain panicle-1 (126.6) and sterile spikelets (48.6) but the lowest number of effective tillers hill -1 (7.4) and minimum 1000 grain weight (10.25g) were recorded at Kailijira (V4) resulting the lowest grain yield (2.27 t ha -1 ) at Kailijira. The results that the widest spacing S 1 produced the tallest plant stature (147.5cm), the highest number of tillers hill -1 (14.0), effective tillers hill -1 (11.0), total spikelets panicle -1 (124.2), filled grain panicle -1 (102.0) while the lowest number of sterile spikelets (22.4). In terms of m -2 basis, all the characteristics were lowered compared to the spacing of 20cm x 15 cm resulting in the lowest grain yield (2.66 t ha -1 ). The variety BRRI dhan38 at the spacing of 20cm x 15cm produced significantly the highest grain yield (4.27 t ha-1) and the second highest grain yield was (4.00 t ha-1) recorded in BRRI dhan37 with the same spacing.
