e0“Stover mulch recorded significantly higher plant height, dry matter accumulation, grain weight per ear heads, total number of tillers and effective tillers as compared to control, dust mulch and pusa hydrogel but remained at par with pusa hydrogel + stover mulch.”
t0“Pearlmillet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.)]”

- Intervention effect Stover mulch increased plant height versus control, dust mulch and pusa hydrogel.
- Intervention effect Stover mulch increased dry matter accumulation versus three alternatives.
- Intervention effect Stover mulch increased total tiller number versus three alternatives.
- Intervention effect Stover mulch increased effective tillers versus three alternatives.
- Intervention effect Stover mulch and combined pusa hydrogel plus stover mulch performed comparably for reported growth and yield attributes.
- Intervention effect Applying 6 kg Zn/ha improved growth parameters, yield attributes and yield versus control and 2 kg Zn/ha.
- Intervention effect Applying 4 kg Zn/ha improved growth parameters, yield attributes and yield versus control and 2 kg Zn/ha.
- Intervention effect The 6 and 4 kg Zn/ha applications performed comparably.
- Recommendation The authors favored stover mulch with 4 kg Zn/ha for pearlmillet.
