Abstract

At low concentrations (6 and 12%), seawater increased the growth and yield of ragi in pots of infertile sandy Bris soil receiving uniform NP treatment. Concentrations of 48 and 72% seawater were harmful. Application of 0.25 cwt K/A further increased yields. The effects of the treatments on yield components were determined
