Abstract

In a study of the development of side shoots after harvesting of the main crop in three varieties grown under four N regimes and harvested at two stages, only CS3541 produced productive side shoots (within 58 days after harvest of the main crop and without additional N treatment). Increasing N supply to the main crop and harvesting the main crop at physiological maturity rather than at normal maturity produced more side shoots in CS3541 and had a beneficial effect on the second (afterharvest) crop
