abstract
The field research experiment on fenugreek was conducted at Horticulture Research and Extension Station, Devihosur, Haveri, Karnataka for four years (2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020) in medium deep black soil during rabi season. The sowing time and seeds rate has significant influence on growth and yield levels of fenugreek. The interaction of time of sowing and seed rate differed significantly for seed yield. The interaction effect of November I fortnight sowing with seed rate 15 kg per ha recorded significantly higher seed yield. The increased fenugreek seed yield with interaction of November I fortnight was mainly due to the congenial weather conditions favourable for the growth and development of the crop the optimum seed rate favoured the optimum plant population per unit area with a sufficient space for crop establishment and growth.
