Crop Growth Rate and Harvest Index Analysis

The document outlines the methodology for calculating Crop Growth Rate (CGR) and post-harvest observations, including average pod dry weights and shelling percentage. It provides formulas for CGR, shelling percentage, and harvest index, which are essential for assessing crop performance. The data will be recorded treatment-wise across different experiments and seasons.

kernel weight) will be recorded. Crop Growth Rate (CGR) i.e the total dry matter production of
crop community per unit land area over a certain period of time will be calculated by the
following formula and expressed in g m-2 day-1. CGR = [(W2 – W1)/(t2 – t1)] where, W1 and
W2 were the dry weights of plant parts per unit land area at times t1 and t2, respectively. As
post-harvest observations average pod dry weights per plant in gram and shelling% following the
formula i.e. Shelling (%) = [{Total weight of kernel (g)/ Total weight of seed pod (g)} × 100]
will be recorded in treatment wise in both the experiments and in all seasons. Net plots will be
harvested separately and after harvesting the weight of pods will be recorded and converted it
into kg ha–1 basis. Then harvest index will be calculated from the following formula: Harvest
index (%) = [(Economic
