Abstract

A field experiment Conducted at the farm of Kunduz University during cropping season of 2023 to evaluate Effects of Nitrogen Application on Growth and Yield of Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) in northeast of Afghanistan. The field experiment laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications, the treatments were Nitrogen fertilizer levels viz. Control, 15 kg N/ha, 30 kg N/ha and 45 kg N/ha respectively, result of the study revealed the highest Plant Height (32.61cm), Branches/plant (10.05), Leave area index (5.20), Kernel/pod (2.23), Pod weight (24.46), Pods/plant (32.30), 100- seed weight (76.38gr), Pod yield (2.89t/ha), haulm yield (5.53t/ha) and Biological yield (8.42t/ha) were in treatment with application 45 kg N/ha, the minimum growth and yield parameters were in Control plots, it can be concluded nitrogen fertilizer at the rate of 45 kg N/ha is optimum level for enhancing groundnut productivity and profitability in northeast of Afghanistan.
