Study of growth and yield attributes of Bajra Napier hybrids

Abstract

A field experiment was conducted at Forage farm, S.K.N. College of Agriculture, Jobner (Rajasthan), during Kharif season, 2021 on loamy sand soil to study the Growth and Yield attributes of Bajra Napier hybrids. The experiment consisted four Bajra Napier hybrids (IGFRI-7, CO-5, KKM-1 and Supriya) and three plant spacings (60 cm × 60 cm, 75 cm × 60 cm and 100 cm × 60 cm). The total 12 treatment combinations were laid out in factorial randomized block design with three replications. The experimental results revealed that Bajra Napier hybrid CO-5 and hybrid Supriya recorded significantly higher plant height, number of tillers per plant, number of leaves per plant, green fodder yield, dry fodder yield.
