Abstract
To evaluate the effect of seed priming techniques on seed yield and yield components of lentil (Lens culinaris M), a field experiment was conducted in Split Plot Design with three replications using two lentil cultivars viz., KLB-303 and K-75 placed in the main plot with fourteen different seed priming treatments in the sub-plot during the Rabi season of 2019-20 and 2020-21 at Oil Seed Farm, CSA University, Kanpur. Analysis of variance of pooled data of both the year revealed that Variety K-75 was significantly superior in terms of yied and yield components as compared to variety KLB- 303. Among the various seed priming techniques, seedcoating (on hydroprimed seed) with Bio NPK and drought alleviating bacteria resulted in maximum yield with and yield components as compared to other treatments. Thus, from the experiment it was concluded that seed coating (on hydroprimed seed) with drought alleviating bacteria + BioNPK can be used for higher seed production of lentil under suboptimal condition which is simple, economically feasible and environmental friendly.
