Abstract

The application of nitrogen generally increased grain yield, plant height, number of productive tillers, number of spikelets par spike and straw yield but delayed heading and maturity.

Lower seeding rate resulted in increased grain yield, number of productive tillers and number of spike—lets per spike. However, heading and 'maturity were delayed and shorter plant and lower straw yield were obtained at lower rote of seeding.

The best combination seemed to be 60 kg. per ha. seeding rate fertilized with 135 kg. nitrogen per hectare.
