Abstract:

A field experiment was carried out in Kharif season (2014-15 and 2015-16) at College Farm, College of Agriculture, Professor Jayashankar Telangana State Agricultural University (PJTSAU), Rajendranagar, Hyderabad, India, to evaluate the effect of sowing dates and integrated nutrition on growth and productivity of kharif pearlmillet. Experimental results revealed that pearl millet crop, out of the three INM main treatments, 100 % RDF + press mud @ 2.5 tons ha-1 i.e., M3 and among dates of sowing, pearl millet sown on June 30th (D2) improved the growth parameters viz., plant height, number of tillers m-2 and dry matter production as well as yield attributes like ear head length, weight of grains ear head-1 and 1000-grain weight which significantly resulted in highest grain, straw yield, harvest index.


Keywords: Pearlmillet, INM and Dates of sowing
