Author(s): Mersha Tezera*
The experiment “Effect of Quality seed of tef (Eragrostis tef Zucci [Trotter]) on Yield and yield related traits was conducted at Yilmana Densa and Simada and Debre Tabore Weredas. Six experimental materials which are (three of them certified (C1) seeds of tef varieties taken from Amhara Public Seed Enterprise and three of them are their correspondence farmers’ saved seeds) were tested. The varieties were namely: -Kuncho, Etsub and Kora. The experimental design for test was RCBD (Randomized Complete Block Design) with four replications. The plot size was 2.5m X 1.2m. Spacing between plots and blocks were 0.5m each respectively. Data collected include plant height, panicle length, biomass yield and grain yield. The experiment was done at four locations from three Weredas (two locations from Yilmana Densa and two locations from Simada and Debre Tabore wereda). The experiment.. View More»
