A field investigation was conducted on clay soil of Department of Agronomy,
experimental farm at Annamalai University during 2014 to study the response of deshi
cotton hybrid to different plant densities and nitrogen levels. The nine treatments
comprises of three spacings and three nitrogen levels. The experiment was laid out in
factorial randomized block design with three replications. On the basis of results
obtained from present investigation it was the lowest plant spacing (90 x 60 cm) that
gave more seed cotton yield 2670.40 kg/ha over its highest levels of spacing. Application
of 80 kg N/ha significantly gave more seed cotton yield 2834.40 kg/ha over 60 kg N/ha
and on par with 100 kg N/ha.
