Effect of Cyclanilide + Mepiquat chloride on growth and productivity of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill]

Abstract

The present investigation entitled ‘‘Effect of Cyclanilide + Mepiquat Chloride on growth and productivity of Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill]’’ was carried out at Instructional cum Research Farm, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur during Kharif season of 2016. Experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with three replications. The soybean variety JS-9752 tested under different plant growth regulator management. The result revealed that application of Cyclanilide 22 + Mepiquate Chloride 88 SC @ 100 ml ha-1 recorded the significantly highest plant height, number of branches plant-1, number of leaves plant-1, Leaf area index, seed yield (kg ha-1) Stover yield(kg ha-1) seed index (100-seed weight) and harvest index as compare to other treatment.
