A research trail was conducted during Zaid season (2022) at Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Prayagraj (U.P.). To study the effect of spacing and manganese on the growth and yield of sesame. The Treatments consist of 3 levels of spacing (30 ×10 cm, 40×10 cm, 50 ×10 cm)and three levels of manganese (1.5,3.0,4.5kg/ha) are included respectively. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with 10 treatments and replicated thrice. The results showed that spacing of 50×10cm+ Mnso4 4.5kg/ha (Treatment-9) Plant height (87.66 cm), Number of branches/plant (6.27), plant dry weight (15.74 g/plant), number of capsules per plant (52.47), number of seeds per capsules (74.50), test weight (3.37 g), seed yield (1.19 t/ha), straw yield (2.67 t/ha) and Biological yield (3.6t/ha).
A field experiment was conducted during Zaid season (2022) at Crop ResearchFarm, Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Prayagraj (U.P.),India, to study the influence of spacing and manganese on yield and economics and quality of sesame. The treatments consisted of 3 levels of spacing ( 30×10cm, 40× 10cm, 50× 10 cm) and 3 levels of manganese (1.5,3.0 and 4.5 kg/ha). The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with 10 treatments and replicated thrice. The results recorded significantly higher in yield and yield attributes viz. number of capsules/plant (52.47), number of seeds per capsules (74.50), test weight (3.37 g), seed yield (1.19 t/ha), stover yield (2.67 t/ha) and oil content (48.10%).Maximum Gross returns (113050.00 (Indian Rupee) INR/ha), Net returns (76944.15(Indian Rupee) INR/ha) and Benefit cost ratio (2.13) was found in treatment (T9)with the application of 50×10cm + manganese sulfate (MnSO4) 4.5 Kg/ha.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
