Description :
Quality of seeds is very important for any crop to grow better in the future and to higher yield and also to grow vigorously. These could also enhanced by treating with many poisonous chemicals and growth factors. But these are always hazardous to human being, animals, microorganisms, environment and natural habitats. There are some facts like, if the crops are grown under the indigenous organic preparation, cultivation are less prone to diseases attack and safe to health. In the view of the above facts, the present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of different organic preparation which were prepared on physiological parameters of lentil viz., germination percentage, length of plumule, length of radicals, seedling dry weight, seedling vigour, field emergence percentage and mycoflora. The results revealed that the seeds soaked in Brahamastra showed highest germination percentage, length of plumule, length of radicals, seedling dry weight, seedling vigour, field emergence percentage and lesser invasion of mycoflora followed by Beejamrutha, Panchgavya and Jeevamrutha. The control which was soaking in water recorded significantly lowest seed quality parameters and highest invasion of mycoflora.
