Abstract

ABSTRACT The panicles covered, with polythene bags bore few fruits resulting in the lowest yield of 21 grams per panicle with least minimum fruit setting of 3.75%. The highest yield of 708 grams was obtained from panicles left open to honey bee's pollination under natural condition with fruit setting of 82.93 percent; whereas the panicles left open under natural conditions without honey bee visitation yielded 252 grams per panicle with fruit setting of 46.15 percent.
