Emergence of seedlings/m2, days to flowering, days to maturity, number of grains/pod number of branches/plant, plant height (cm), thousand grain weight (g), percent hard grain (%), biological yield (kg/ha) and grain yield (kg/ha) were significantly affected by row and plant spacings, while pods number/plant and harvest index were not significantly affected at 5% level of significance with row and plant spacings. The results revealed that a spacing of 50 cm between rows and 10 cm within rows produced maximum number of pods/plant, grains/pod, higher thousand grain weight, lower percent hard grain and higher biological yield, harvest index and grain yield (kg/ha).
