Abstract

Application of phosphorus through FYM cured DAP recorded significantly higher grain yield (1581 kg/ha) than other sources of phosphorus. Seed priming with 2% SSP, 2% CaCl2, 5% cow urine recorded significantly higher grain yields which were at par with each other. Interaction of recommended dose of phosphorus through FYM cured DAP and seed priming with 2% SSP, recorded higher grain yield of 1705 kg/ha which was significantly superior over other interactions. Similar trend was also observed with respect to the yield and growth parameters.
