“…The highest seed yield harvested from NNN during the 2003 growing season is attributed to the highest LAD observed during the season (Table 3). Evans et al (1975) and Annandale et al (1984) reported similar findings for wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.). The larger photosynthetic source developed during the growing season (Fig.…”

Water Stress Effects on Winter Canola Growth and Yield

Canola (Brassica napus L.) is seen as a dryland crop in many parts of the world. In South Africa, there is growing interest in producing canola under irrigation because of its profitability and beneficial disease control characteristics in a rotation system. The objectives of this study were to identify the growth stage most sensitive to water stress and to determine the effect of water stress on crop growth, phenology, seed and oil yield, water use, and seed oil content. A well watered control was compared with treatments stressed during one of the following stages: vegetative, flowering, or seed filling in replicated field studies during 2002 and 2003 at Pretoria, South Africa. Water stress imposed during flowering delayed maturity by 114 growing degree days. In contrast, water stress imposed during seed fill resulted in 127 growing degree days earlier maturity. The well watered control gave the highest value for leaf area index of 8, water use of 709 mm, seed yield of 3831 kg ha−1, and seed oil content of 398 g kg−1 Canola stressed at flowering gave the lowest values for seed yield of 1361 kg ha−1, seed oil content of 340 g kg−1, and water use of 332 mm. Dry matter production per unit water use at seed filling was only a third of its value during the vegetative and flowering stages. Canola seed and oil yield are most sensitive to water stress at flowering and less sensitive during the vegetative and seed‐filling stages.

“…Sriram and Rao (1983) concluded that the growth parameters such as leaf area ratio (LAR) and its duration had a strong association with grain yield. Similarly, grain yield in soybean was strongly associated with maximum LAI, but not with NAR, while the grain yields usually depend on LAD after anthesis (Annandale et al, 1984).

“…The vegetative growth and yield of crops are strongly influenced by the nutrient status of the soil and water supply. Soil water depletion is largely affected by leaf area as it is the photosynthetic' factory' of the plant which greatly influences yield (Annandale et al, 1984) [4] . Balanced fertilization is becoming more important under late sown condition, where crop requires shorter life spawn for vegetative and reproductive growth.…”

Efficient water management, being one of the good agronomic management practices which leads to improve the performance of wheat. Late sowing has substantial effect on nutrient management of wheat. Application of N-P2O5-K2O in balanced level has great impact on late sown wheat yield. Since high yielding varieties of wheat have been found highly responsive to nitrogen fertilization. But in absence of phosphorus, nitrogen becomes ineffective and most of the applied nitrogen remains un-utilized. The efficiency of both nitrogen and phosphorus is greatly enhanced in the presence of each other (Stoeva and Tonev, 2003). So, level of fertilization and irrigation is need to be optimize for higher fertilizer use efficiency and decrease the loss of water under late sown condition, in particular. A field experiment was carried out to investigate the "Interactive effect of irrigation and fertility levels on economic and qualitative yield of extremely late sown wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)'' and results revealed that low levels of irrigation and fertilizer doses recorded significantly lower plant height, tiller number, LAI and dry matter accumulation. On the other hand, use of four irrigation along with full recommended dose of fertilizers (120-60-40 kg N-P2O5-K2O ha -1 ) recorded higher growth parameters viz. plant height, tiller number, LAI(leaf area index) and dry matter accumulation as well as economic and qualitative yield of extremely late sown wheat.
