Effect of Super Absorbent Polymercoating on Seed Yield and Quality of Green Gram (Vigna radiata L.) Under Field Condition

A field experiment was carried out with green gram cv. CO 8 to study the impact of different Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP) coating on growth, yield and seed quality. The optimized concentration of different SAPs viz., Sodium Polyacrylate (SPA), Polyacrylamide (PA) and Coir pith based SAP@7, 2 and 8 g/kg of seeds respectively were applied along with MnSO4@100 ppm to green gram seeds and uncoated seeds (control) served as control.
