Effect of Spacing and Potassium Levels on Yield and Economics of Foxtail Millet (Setaria italica L.)

A field experiment was conducted to determine the influence of spacing and potassium levels on foxtail millet (Setaria italica L.) var.during (Zaid) 2022 with 9 treatments (viz. at 25 x 10 cm, 30 35 cm respectively K 10, 20 kg/ha respectively). The soil experimental plot sandy loam in texture, nearly neutral reaction (pH 7.1), low organic carbon (0.28%), available N (225kg/ha), P (19.50kg/ha) (92kg/ha) Crop Research Farm, Department Agronomy, Faculty Agriculture, SHUATS, Prayagraj (U.P). Spacing 30×10cm + Potassium recorded highest grain yield (2.11 t/ha), stover (3.95 higher net return (84,587.00 INR/ha), gross (57,552.00INR/ha) benefit: cost ratio (2.13).
