Promising Varieties -ISC 480
17. Ecological requirement
• Up to 2000 m(MSL)
• RF : 500-700 mm
– cannot tolerate waterlogging
• Temperature : 20-30̊C
• Drought tolerance -fairly tolerant
escape some droughts because of early maturity
• Light
– long day
– short day
– day neutral
18. Soil
• sandy loams - clay loams
• tolerates poor and dry soils
• difficult to germinate on heavy clay soils
19. Propagation
• By seeds
• Germination percentage : 75%
• Ability to spread naturally
• Spread from scattered seed
20. Land Preparation
• fine, firm seed-bed
• land development an initial ploughing
21. Time of planting
• Maha -rainfed as well with supplementary
irrigation when there are drought periods
• Maha - established with Maha rains that
occur in latter part of September or first week
of October for successful growth
• Yala -established with Yala rains that fall in
later part of April
• By timely cultivation pest problems can be
reduced
22. Sawing
• Usually drilled, but may be broadcast and
harrowed
• Spacing 30*30 cm
• 2-3cm deep
• Temperature of soil between 8 to 10 °C
• Except in sandy soils, rolling after planting is
desirable
• Not like muddy conditions during germination
• Seed requirement 5-7 kg/ha
24. Irrigation
• Normally grown under RF
• During dry periods, irrigations are
required every 4-7 days depending on
the severity of the drought and type of
soil
25. Weed management
• controlled by manual methods
– weeding
– application pre- and post emergent
weed killers
• Crops need to be maintained weed free
at least until flowering stage
26. Development of plant
• flowering 56-62 days
• short generation time
– approximately 5–8 weeks from
planting to flowering
– 8–15 weeks from planting to seed
maturity
27. Pest & Disease problem
• Diseases
– less affected by diseases
– leaf and head blast
– Green ear
• Pest
susceptible to bird attack in the field, and
mice and rat invasions
28. Harvesting
• harvested before depletion of soil moisture
• Seed heavy
– Harvest with combines using a small seeds
box
• harvested manually when grain moisture is
low and after physiological maturity is reached
• Seed moisture is lowered by sun drying to a
safer level before shelling the seeds
29. Postharvest and storage
• Dried thoroughly before storage
• Better to separate from impurities after
harvest
• Drying has to be done if the crop is too moist
(optimum 14%)
• Stored with husk but prior to its processing or
consumption the husk must be removed
