The Effects of Different Planting Densities on Lentil (Lens culinaris Medic.) Yield and Yield Components in Mardin Conditions

In this study, the effects of four different sowing densities (200, 250, 300 and 350 seed m-2) on yield components for two winter lentil cultivars (Şakar Fırat-87) in Mardin conditions. The study was laid out a factorial randomised block design with three replicates at fields Artuklu University, Kızıltepe Vocational High School 2012-2013 growing season. were investigated effect planting plant height, first pod numbers branche, per plant, pod, unit area, harvest index, biological 1000 weight. While highest area obtained from second density Şakar variety 275.23 kg da-1, lowest Fırat-87 208.83 da-1.
