Experiment code BHR. Agro. II (CJA-19.2.3.62)
Experiment Title Efficacy of polymer based super absorbent on Bt. cotton hybrid under rainfed condition(2023)
Research Type Departmental Research
Experiment Background Superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) have been used as water-saving materials for limited irrigation water resources in arid and semi-arid areas. The purpose of this study was to optimize SAP application dosage and irrigation intervals on the growth of cotton in rainfed conditions.
