Growth and Yield Response of Food Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) Varieties to Nitrogen Fertilizer Rates Inkofele District, Southeastern Oromia
Author(s): KedirJema* and Mohammed Aliyi
Despite the importance of barely, there are several factors affecting its production. Among these inadequate uses of N fertilizer and lack of using improved food barley variety are the most important ones. A field experiment was conducted under rainy season conditions to investigate the effects of food barley varieties and rates of nitrogen fertilizer application in the combinations of three food barley varieties, namely Adoshe, Robera and Abdene and four levels of N (23 Kg N/ha , 46 Kg N/ha , 69 Kg N/ha and 92 Kg N/ha) arranged in randomized complete block design in factorial arrangement with three replications on vegetative growth, yield and yield components of barley ( Hordeum vulgare L.) at Kofele, Oromia Regional State of Ethiopia. Results indicated that different nitrogen fertilizer rate had a very highly significant (p<0.001) effect on day to head.. View more»
