A field investigation was conducted during the kharif season of 2014 to optimize N doses and planting densities for enhanced growth and yield performance of maize under rainfed conditions of Nagaland. Application of N @ 80 kg/ha resulted in higher N uptake and enhanced growth of maize ultimately expressing superior yield attributes and registering the highest grain and stover yields of 3518.5 and 6976.01 kg/ha respectively. Maintaining a planting density of 55,555 plants/ha at a spacing of 60 cm x 30 cm was found to provide optimum crop stand in maize resulting in higher N uptake and favourable growth consequently recording better yield attributes and maximum grain yield of 2941.66 kg/ha. However, higher planting density of 74,074 plants/ha at a spacing of 45 cm x 30 cm was found to be more effective for higher stover yields up to 6772.63 kg/ha.

The growth and yield performance of macropropagated plantlets of the False Horn plantain cultivar ‘Apantu’ was evaluated due to the lack of reliable data on the effectiveness of that planting material under typical farming conditions in West Africa, Ghana. Corms were either mechanically treated by the Plants Issus de Fragments de tige (PIF) technique to destroy the apical meristem or remained intact as untreated controls. Subsequently, PIF-treated corms were vacuum infiltrated with either natural or synthetic plant hormone solutions. Emerging plantlets were harvested, acclimatized for three months and planted in a freshly prepared field. Vegetative growth characteristics of each mother (main) plant were taken at 6 and 9 months after planting and for the main and first sucker crop along with yield parameters at harvest, respectively. The results indicated that treatment induced growth differences at 6 and 9 months after planting and were no longer significant at harvest. Consequently, final growth performance was quite homogenous across all treatments for the main and sucker crop, respectively. In contrast, fruit yield parameters of the main and sucker crops were to some extent affected by treatment; however, hormone infiltration tended to have little additional effect over the PIF-treatment. Nevertheless, treating corms with hormonal solutions enhanced the production of rooted plantlets at the nursery stage and ensured improved field performance.

A field experiment was conducted to evaluate the growth and yield performance of six high yielding varieties of wheat viz., BARI Gom-23, BARI Gom-24, BARI Gom-25, BARI Gom-26, BARI Gom-27 and BARI Gom-28 in four sowing time. BARI Gom-24 sown on November 29 produced tallest plant after the age of 45 days with significant variations. Results also indicated that November 15 sown BARI Gom-25 resulted the highest number of tillers, leaves and total dry matter per plant throughout the growth ages with a few exceptions where dry matter produced at the age of 60, 75 and 90 days were significantly higher. Yield parameters viz., number of grains per plant, dry weight of spike, 1000-grain weight, yield per plant, yield per hectare and harvest index were recorded maximum from BARI Gom-25. On the other hand, seeds sown on November 15 produced significantly higher value in all yield contributing characters except number of effective tillers and number of grains per spike. In case of combined treatments, November 15 sown wheat showed similar trend in majority of yield parameters of BARI Gom-25 where, dry weight of spike, 1000- grain weight, yield per plant and yield per hectare were significantly higher than rest of the treatments. Out of six varieties, BARI Gom-25 was the best performed variety. November 15 sown wheat had remarkable effects on yield attributes and yield of most of the varieties but beyond this time yield of wheat reduced significantly.

Given the high costs of agricultural production, especially due to the price of fertilisers, particularly nitrogen, the use of inoculants to supply nitrogen to soybean crops is a widely recommended practice. The objective of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of applying inoculants through seed and planting furrow in soil previously cultivated with soybean and Brazilian native “cerrado” biome soil under greenhouse conditions. Seven treatments were tested: 1) inoculation via seed (inoculant + fungicide + micronutrient), 2) treatment via seed (fungicide + micronutrient), 3) control (only seed), 4) inoculation via furrow-dose 1 (recommended dose), 5) inoculation via furrow-dose 2 (twice the recommended dose), 6) inoculation via furrow-dose 3 (three times the recommended dose) and 7) inoculation via furrow-dose 1 + seed inoculation. We evaluated plant height, fresh and dry matter weight of the aerial part and nodules, number of total, viable and non-viable nodules, number of pods per plant and grain yield. Inoculation was more effective when used in cerrado soil, but soybean performance in treatments without inoculation was higher in previously cultivated soil. Application through furrow proved to be a viable practice due to the similarity of the results obtained with the traditional application by seed.
