Abstract
The present study entitled “Effect of nitrogen levels and row spacing on growth, seed yield and quality of coriander (Coriandrumsativum L.)”as conducted during the Rabi 2021-22 at research farm, Department of Vegetable Science, ChaudharyCharan Singh Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar using four different nitrogen levels (45, 60, 75 and 90 kg ha-1) and three-row to row spacing (30 x 20 cm, 40 x 20 cm and 50 x 20 cm). Vegetative growth parameters i.e., plant height, primary branches at harvest along with yield and yield attributes were recorded. The quality parameters i.e., test weight, accelerated ageing test, standard germination, seedling length, seedling dry weight and vigour indices were also recorded. It was observed that nitrogen dose of 90 kg ha1 and row to row spacing 50 x 20 cm was well suited for vegetative growth except for plant height that was best in 30 x 20 cm spacing. The yield attributes were also found highest at 90 kg N ha-1 and 50 x 20 cm spacing which were statistically at par with 75 kg N ha-1and 40 x 20 cm spacing. The seed yield (seed yield per plot and seed yield per hectare) was recorded maximum at 90 kg N ha-1 and 40 x 20 cm spacing which was statistically at par with 75 kg N ha-1and 40 x 20 cm spacing. The quality parameters were recorded highest with 90 kg N ha-1and spacing 50 x 20 cm which were statistically at par with 75 kg N ha-1 and 40 x 20 cm spacing.
