Effects of sowing density on grain yield and yield components of quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.)

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of plant density of row spacing on grain yield and yield traits of Mint-2, Puna and Valiente of kinoa cultivars, The field trial was carried out at the Research Area of Agricultural Faculty in Cukurova University in 2018 growing season. In this study, row distance was reduced from 70 cm to 40 cm, highest grain yield was achieved by the 70% increases with Puno cultivars (276 g m-2). Grain yield increases was positively and significantly supported by the seed number per area (r= 0.949**) and biological yield (r=0.958**).
