Effect Of Sowing Date And Limited Irrigation On The Seed Yield And Quality Of Dill (Anethum Graveolens L.), Saeid Zehtab-Salmasi, Kazem Ghassemi-Golez, Sajad Moghbeli
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
Field and laboratory experiments were carried out in order to investigate the influence of 3 sowing dates and 4 irrigation disruption treatments at different growth stages on the seed yield and quality of dill (Anethum graveolens L.). The results showed that for successful seed production dill must be sown in early spring (3 to 18 April), since there was no significant difference in seed yield between the sowing dates of 3 April (S_1) and 18 April (S_2). Seeds from S_1 sowing had a higher percentage of germination after accelerated ageing (AA), a faster germination rate and a heavier seedling dry …
