Abstract

Transpiration loss of water of rice and wheat plants at different times of the day grown in sand and sandy soil in specially design earthen pots was studied. The highest plateau of transpiration loss was observed at 14:30 hour for both the crops. The results did not vary significantly (p = 0.05).
