Abstract
A field experiment was conducted during 1992-93 to study the effect of CCC on different crop geometry and nutrient levels in 'Co 26' sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench]. Yield attributes were decreased with increased level of population but increased with fertilizer levels during both the seasons. There was a significant effect due to CCC spray on yield components during summer season alone due to 2 rounds of CCC spray at 30 and 45 days after s owing. Grain yield was increased at 0.148 million plants/ha and 180, 45 and 67.5 kg N, P and K/ha in both the seasons.
