The results of the study showed that Manganese.had no significant effect on days required for first and g0%
emergence. plant height, number of leaves plant-l, Number of main stems hill I of plants (Table 2). The days
required to first emergence of plants was minimum (12.11) in the 3kg Mn ha-1 and the rnaximum (I,1.00 da5,s)
in the 1kg Mn ha-1. The highest period (19.41 days) for 807o .*".gJr.. was recorded in the treatment of lkg
Mn ha-1 and the lowest (17.58 days) was in the 3ig Mn ha-1. rle tlattest plant (44.99 cm) was observed under
