To Workout the Economics and Energetics of Lentil as Influenced by Irrigation and Foliar Spray of Nutrients and Growth Hormones

Abstract

The field experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2017-18 at the Instructional Cum Research Farm, under all India Coordinated Research Project on MULLaRP, Department of Agronomy, College of Agriculture, I.G.K.V. Raipur (CG.) The use of growth regulators is becoming popular to enhance crop productivity and varieties of such substances are available in the markets which are being utilized for crop production. Foliar application should be timed to provide needed nutrients during the yield determining growth stages. Plant growth regulators are the chemicals which influence the plant growth when applied in very minute quantity. The experiment was laid out in Strip Plot Design having the combination of fourteen treatments and three replications. The treatment consisted of seven foliar nutrients spray and two irrigation levels. The experiment was comprised of factor A. Horizontal plot (Irrigation level-2) I 1 -One irrigation (35 DAS), I 2 -Two irrigation (35 and 65 DAS) B. Vertical plot
