Abstract: |
In order to fmd out the appropriate time of planting to escape sunflower from Alternaria blight (Alternaria helianthl) and head rot (Rhizopus sp.), Modem dwarf, SH-3322 & Hybrid Indam varities of the crop were sown in two consecutive seasons on Feb. 7, 17 & 27 during 2011 and on 8, 17 & 27 during 2012 spring. In winter season of20 II the crop was sown on Oct. 10, 20 & 30 in split plot design. Each variety and dates replicated thrice with a plot size 9 m2 at NORP. Severity of Alternaria blight found higher in spring season compared to winter season while head rot was found in moderate form in winter season. Modem dwarf planted in second week of February produced the highest yield (651, 460 & 556) kglha with highly significant treatment difference in the F.Y. 2010/11, 2011112 & in combination respectively. whereas Hybrid indam yielded 1587 kg!ha followed by Modem dwarf {1336 kg/ha) in second week of October with highly significant difference among the treatments. Therefore, planting f Modem dwarf in second week of February & October and Hybrid indam in second week of October could be recommended for the cultivation under farmers field condition. |
