- Solar energy provides light required for seed germination, leaf expansion, growth of stem and shoot, flowering, fruiting and thermal conditions necessary for the physiological functions of the plant.
- Solar radiation plays an important role as regulator and controller of growth and development.
- Solar radiation also influences assimilation of nutrient and dry matter distribution.
All the management practices like
- Optimum time of sowing
- Optimum plant population
- Timely application of fertilizers
- Irrigation management etc. are aimed at increasing the interception of solar radiation by the foliage so as to get more yield.
Optimum Plant Population
