“…This is because vermicompost application enhances the soil's physical and hydraulic properties as well as the availability of NPK, which increases plant growth. These results are in close conformity with Hend (2017), Habiba et al (2018) and Savita et al (2019).…”

his study was carried out during the two successive seasons of 2020 and 2021 on pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum), grown in sandy soil under drip irrigation system at Baloza Research Station, North Sinai Governorate, Egypt (31°32 03 N and 32° 362 03 E). The present study aims at the evaluation of the effect of using vermicompost, NPK (100 and 75% levels), biofertilization (mixture from Azotobacter chroococcum, Pseudomonas fluorescence and Streptomyces microflavus), dual (verimcompost + NPK) and mixed treatment (vermicompost + NPK + bio). The obtained results indicated that the mixed treatment (vermicompost + NPK + bio) increased growth parameters, yield parameters, NPK content and improved soil fertility. Furthermore, addition of biofertilizers showed a positive effect on total microbial counts, Azotobacter densities, Pseudomonas and Actinomycetes counts in the rhizosphere region of pearl millet plant. On the other hand, microbial activity expressed by dehydrogenase enzyme increased as compared to the control.

“…So, foliar spray by urea at a 1.0% level was enough to obtain satisfactory results under salinity conditions. Similar results were obtained by Hassan et al, (2016) and Habiba et al, (2018). These increments in dry yield may be attributed to the increases in plant growth characteristics by foliar nitrogen application rates and water distribution uniformity in the root zone along the field, with minimal losses of supplied water, consequently, the increase in moisture availability helped endorse the growth, development, and biomass yield of the pearl millet forage crop.…”

A field experiment was carried out, at El-Tina Plain, North Sinai Governorate, Egypt, during the two summer growing seasons 2014 and 2015. This work was conducted to study the effect of improved management package (IMP) using two surface irrigation methods as flow management (continuous and surge flow) IMPC and IMPS, respectively, and three foliar applications by urea treatments (0, 1.0, and 2.0% N) f1, f2 and f3, respectively, on some growth characters and forage yield of pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L. R. Br). Obtained results showed that the growth characters and forage yield of pearl millet, i.e. plant height, the number of tillers m -2 , and totally fresh and dry weight yield increased significantly by IMP, produced the highest significant values of the most growth characters and the totally fresh and dry forage weight. Meantime, the growth traits and forage dry yield were significantly affected by using 2% of urea foliar application (f3) treatment which produced the highest values of plant height, tillers m -2 , and total fresh and dry weights ha -1 compared to short furrows (TMPsf). Water-saving is greatly enhanced by using the surge flow technique of irrigation water management (IMPS). The highest mean value of the irrigation water use efficiency by total fresh forage yield (IWUEf) obtained 13.26 kg m -3 by IMPSf3 treatment, while by total dry yield (IWUEd) obtained 2.81 kg m -3 by IMPSf2 treatment.

The demand of high fodder yielding varieties of Pearl millet with better nutritional quality and grain yield is increasing by the livestock farmers. The cultivation of high yielding fodder crops is essential need of the age for livestock industry development, especially in developing countries as Pakistan. Development of high fodder yielding varieties with better nutritional value is a serious need of the time. Sargodha Bajra-2020 variety having high green fodder yield, better nutritional value and grain yield is an open random mating among the linesPCBK-948, N-5, HI-GROUP and POP-6. Above mentioned variety has been proved more successful than the previous SGD-Bajra-2011 variety (check). It produced 3.47% higher green fodder yield with average value of 74.5t/ha as compared to check variety SGD-Bajra-2011with average yield of 72t/ha during kharif 2016& 1.08% higher green fodder yield with an average value of 33.69t/ha as compared to check variety SGD-Bajra-2011with average yield of 33.33t/ha during kharif 2017 in National Uniform Fodder Yield Trials. It has palatability 72.66% as compared to 65.33% in the previous SGD-Bajra-2011 variety (check) Moreover; its green fodder contains 18.55% dry matter, 9.33 %crude protein, 3.67% crude fat. The new variety showed that it was moderately resistant to downy mildew. Agronomic studies revealed that it is fit in a better way with the existing agronomic practices.
