Abstract

Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] an important staple food crop in many parts of the world, is grown under widely different edaphic and environmental conditions. Especially the resource poor farmers of Rajasthan hardly applies fertilizers and follow agronomic practices including row spacing. Moreover, the harsh and erratic environment of Rajasthan further adds to variation in the growing conditions of the crop. Thus, the stability for grain yield becomes an important consideration for any crop improvement programme in sorghum. Therefore, in the present study an attempt has been made to identify high yielding stable genotypes of sorghum.
