Abstract
An experiment involving various pearl-millet hybrids (HB1', 'HB3' and 'HB4') and levels of nitrogen (0,40,80,120,160 and 200 kg/ha) was conducted at various locations representing different agro-climatic and edaphic conditions. The study was initiated in 1969 and carried through 1971. All hybrids displayed high production and nitrogen use efficiency in Punjab, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh. Their efficiency in Andhra Pradesh, Mysore and Tamil Nadu was low and in Maharashtra, Gujarat and Rajasthan it was intermediate. 'HB3' appeared superior to all other hybrids and might be a dependable choice under present circumstances
