Summary Grain and straw yields of barley improved significantly due to N–S, row orientation, 30 cm row spacing and 90 kg/ha seed rate. A plant rectangularity of 13.6 was found most conducive for grain and straw yeilds of barley. None of the malt quality characters were affected wignificantly due to row orientation. A row spacing of 30 cm and a seed rate of 90 kg/ha improved the malt quality characters of barley. Increase in protein percentage at 30 cm row spacing deteriorated the malt quality.
Key words Plant density - Rainfed barley - Row orientation
