ABSTRACT

The yield of the crop depends on the growth which is directly controlled by healthy seedling emergence. To get better quality product pretreatment of seed can be a good alternative. The study was designed to analyze the effect of seed pretreatment with silica and fungicide along with foliar spray of bioenzyme on the growth and biochemical parameters of mung bean. The work was undertaken with twelve different treatments given in blocks of 2× 2 m2 area selected by randomized block design. The effect on growth was assessed with the help of different physical parameters and protein, carbohydrate content indicated as biochemical parameters. The concentration of bioenzyme used in the study along with the pretreatment of seeds with silica showed maximum increase in all the studied physical and biochemical parameters. The present work can be used to improve growth at early stage and to enhance biochemical parameters of mung bean.
