Optimum plant population per unit area is considered as one of the agronomic management practice to boost up the yield of commercial crop which aid in provision of adequate sunlight, nutrient, water and space for proliferation (Biradar patil et al., 1991). Seed crop is not exempting from this rule and in addition seed crop require still more adequate spacing for rouging and to improve the size of seed (Savithri and Srimathi, 2002). Hence, in seed production the geometry should be adjusted in such a way that the quality of seed is yielded at higher order at the optimum plant spacing
