Abstract:
A field experiment was conducted at Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar to evaluate the effect of seed rate and row spacing on growth and yield of fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum) cv. Hisar Sonali. The treatment comprised of three rows spacing (20, 30 and 40 cm) in main plot and five seed rate (16, 18, 20, 22 and 24 kg/ha). Ten competitive plants are selected randomly from each plot to record data on various parameters. The maximum number of seeds per pod was observed with seed rate of 16 kg/ha and row spacing 40 cm. The treatment combination of seed rate 24kg/ha and row spacing 40cm was found to be best. The seed rate 20kg/ha and 40cm row spacing shows significantly higher yield than other.
