Abstract
A field experiment entitled “Response of pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.) to levels and scheduling
of nitrogen under south Gujarat condition” was conducted on heavy black soil at the College Farm, N. M.
College of Agriculture, Navsari Agricultural University, Navsari (Gujarat) during the summer season
2016. The experiment comprising twelve treatment combinations were laid out in factorial randomized
block design and replicated three times. The treatment consisted combinations of four levels of nitrogen
viz. 60 kg N/ha (N1), 80 kg N/ha (N2), 100 kg N/ha (N3) and 120 kg N/ha (N4) and three scheduling of
nitrogen viz. 50% at basal + 50 top dressing at 30 DAS (M1), 50% at basal + 50% top dressing at 45 DAS
(M2) and 50% at basal + 25% top dressing at 30 DAS + 25% top dressing at 45 DAS (M3). The
recommended dose of phosphorus @ 40 kg/ha was applied uniformly to all the treatment as basal in form
of single super phosphate. Nitrogen was applied as per treatment in form of urea. Highest growth, yield
attributes and yield of summer pearl millet can be obtained by fertilizing the crop with 80 kg N/ha 50% at
basal + 25% top dressing at 30 DAS + 25% top dressing at 45 DAS.
