Abstract

The present experiment was carried out at All India Coordinated Research Project on safflower, College of Agriculture, Indore, (M.P.) during rabi season 2015-16 to study the effect of sowing date and cultivars on germination, emergence and rosette termination of safflower. The experiment was performed in split plot design using three sowing dates and three cultivars. The choice of location specific variety has advantages over other varieties since it well adopted and responded better to local environment/growing conditions and applied inputs leading to significant higher production. The safflower cultivar NARI-6 had maximum germination percentage (91.43%) and number of days for rosette termination (21.50 days) while the earliest emergence is noted under A-1 (10.92 days). In case of sowing dates, 1 November sowing took minimum days to emerge out (10.92 days), 15 November proved beneficial with respect to maximum germination percentage (88.60%) while 30 November took maximum number of days for rosette termination (22.08 days).
