EFFECT OF SOWING DATES ON SEED YIELD ATTRIBUTES ININDIAN MUSTARDAshwini Sakpal, Sangita Yadav, Shiv K. Yadav and Ravish ChoudharyAbstract The effects of early and late sowings were studied on Indian mustard cultivars. During the years 2021-22,the 8 genotypes were cultivated in RBD with 3 replications on three sowing dates: September (D1), October(D2), and November (D3) at SST, IARI, and New Delhi. Sowing dates were found to be significant for all ofthe characters, although genotypes and their interactions were only significant for a no. of seeds per siliquastudied. The results revealed that the timely sown condition (D2) was found to be better for all genotypes.Among the eight genotypes, JC-33 had a maximum no. of seeds per siliqua in timely sown condition (D2).It was discovered that the sowing date influenced yield characteristics significantly. As the sowing datewas extended, the seed yield was found to decline dramatically. |
