Significance of Plant Canopy Mainatainace in Crop Yield

The yield of any crop depends on the capacity a plant canopy to intercept and efficiently use sunlight, which is dependent architecture viz., leaf size, shape angle, number leaves branches, geometry row orientation, spacing, geometry, density, etc. amount distribution area in determine way, by which, photosynthetic active radiation intercepted consequently it influences photosynthesis yield. balance between source sink significantly contributes towards higher accumulation photosybthates Cropping plant/crop affects efficiency, (IPAR) thereby biological economical crop. Optimum population stand its density planting pattern with adequate spatial arrangement are important cultural factors that increase interception production.
