 ABSTRACT

The field experiment was conducted at the Regional Research Station (Bawal) Department of Agronomy, CCS Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar (India) during the year 2015-16 and 2016-17. To evaluate the optimum sowing time, seed rate and row spacing on yield of barley The experiment was conducted with split-split plot design replicated three times. Treatments consisted of four dates of sowing viz. D1 (last week of October), D2 (1st week of November), D3 (2nd week of November) and D4 (3rd week of November) and two seed rates viz. recommended and 110 % of recommended was kept as main plot and three row spacings viz. (17.5 cm), (20 cm) and (22.5 cm recommended) was kept as sub plot. The received results that yield was increased significantly under D1 (last week of October) and statistically similar to 1st week of November sown crop than another sowing dates. Yield were increased significantly under (20 cm) row spacing over the rest row spacing and not significant effects of that two seed rates. The highest grain yield was computed under D1 (last week of October) with (20 cm) row spacing.

Key words: Sowing dates, Seed rate, Row spacing, Productivity, Barley.
