Effect of Organics and Inorganic on Seed Priming Techniques on Seed quality Parameters in Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graceum)

The experiment was following to examine the “Effect of Organics and Inorganics on Seed priming techniques on Seed quality parameters in Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graceum)” the during of 2020-2021 at the seed testing laboratory department of Genetics and Plant Breeding, Naini, SHUATS, Prayagraj (Uttar Pradesh). Fenugreek seeds treat with a soaked seed that is T₀ (Control). Hydro priming (Soaked with distilled water for 12 hours), Botanical leaf extracts (Neem leaf extract, Moringa leaf extract, Curry leaf extract) soaked for 6 hours, Inorganic (NaCl, Kcl, KnO₃) @ 3% for 8 hours with different concentrations, on the seed of Fenugreek. Among these different treatments, all are significant. The result intimate that T₆ KnO₃ @ 3% for 8 hrs got highest and performed well with good Seedling Germination percentage as 96.5%, Root length 8.7 cm, Shoot length 9.3 cm, Seedling length 15.5 cm, Fresh weight of seedlings 1.95g, Dry weight of seedling 0.07 g, Seed vigor Index I 1495.75, Seed vigor Index II 6.755 followed by T₁₂ Moringa leaf extract @ 4% for 6 hrs as compared to other treatments. So, the Seed priming method is a low cost investment. It is beneficial to farmers. It can increase the production of the plants will be gain profit and contribute to the food supply.
