Influence of nitrogen and plant growth regulator application on grain yield of barley – Marrar 2017The primary objective of PGRs is to decrease plant height to reduce lodging, however, this can also indirectly increase grain yield. If the crop is not lodged, the effect of PGR application on yield is more variable. The influence of varying levels of N and PGR timing on the grain yield of four elite barley cultivars, including the recently released RGT PlanetA, was investigated at Marrar in 2017. |
