Abstract 
Finger millet is a climate compliant crop; its production remains low due to poor establishment methods. A field 
experiment was conducted during the rainy season of 2018/19 at Dorcas Charare plot in ward 24, Zaka district to 
investigate the effects of establishment methods on yield and yield parameters of finger millet (Eleusine 
coracana L. Gaertn). The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three 
treatments namely broadcasting, hand drilling and transplanting replicated three times. Results on grain yield 
showed that transplanting method had the highest yield of 0.51t/ha whilst drilling and broadcasting scored 
0.40t/ha and 0.35t/ha respectively. Transplanting method significantly (p<0.05) influenced higher number of 
tillers (7.13) per hill followed by drilling (2.40) and lastly broadcasting (2.13). Significant differences (p<0.05) 
were noted on panicle number with transplanting scoring the highest (8.13) and broadcasting the lowest (3.13). It 
can be concluded from the study that transplanting method realized a higher panicle number, tiller number and 
grain yield. Farmers must adopt transplanting as an establishment method in finger millet production.

1. Introduction and Background 
Finger millet (Eleusine coracana L. Gaertn) belongs to family Poaceae (Nepal Agricultural Research Council, 
2014). It is an annual herbaceous plant widely grown as a cereal crop in the arid and semiarid areas of Africa and 
Asia. It is a tetraploid and self-pollinating species probably evolved from its wild relative Eleusine Africana L. 
(Adunga et al., 2011). Finger millet is a tufted annual cereal crop growing 40-150 cm tall, taking between 2.5 
and 6 months to mature. It is a short-day plant with a growing optimum 12 hours of daylight for most varieties 
(Adunga et al., 2011). . It has narrow, grass like leaves and many tillers and branches. The head consists of a 
group of digitately arranged spikes. Finger millet is grown for its edible seeds. The seeds, which may be white, 
light brown, or dark brown, are consumed in a variety of forms including as unleavened bread made from milled 
flour. Various types of porridge and alcoholic beverages are also prepared from the seeds (Alumira and Rusike, 
2005). 
Finger millet originated in East Africa (Ethiopian and Ugandan highlands) and was introduced in India around 
2000 BCE. It was claimed to have been found in an Indian archaeological site dated to 1800 BCE (late Iron age) 
(Bayala et al., 2002). According to Bayala et al. (2002), the oldest record of it from an archaeological site is 
from Africa 8th century AD. Interesting crop characteristics of finger millet are the ability to withstand 
cultivation at altitudes over 2000 m above sea level, its high drought tolerance, and the long storage time of the 
grain. It is an important food cereal crop of semi-arid tropics particularly by communal small scale and 
subsistence farmers under dry-land production.  
The main growing area of finger millet ranges from 20°N to 20°S, meaning mainly the semiarid to arid tropics. 
Nevertheless, finger millet is found to be grown at 30°N in the Himalaya region (India and Nepal) (Bayala et al., 
2002). According to Beddington (2010a), the majority of worldwide finger millet farmers grew it under rain fed 
conditions, although yields often can be significantly improved when irrigation is applied. Heat tolerance of 
finger millet is high. For most finger millet varieties, the optimal average growth temperature is about 27 °C, 



as.ideasspread.org   Agricultural Science Vol. 1, No. 1; 2019 

 48       Published by IDEAS SPREAD 
 

while the minimal temperatures should not be lower than 18 °C (Beddington, 2010a). Relative to other species 
(pearl millet and sorghum), finger millet has a higher tolerance to cool temperatures (Beddington, 2010b). 
Devi and Sathyabama (2014) postulates that finger millet is important for its nutritional value in the diet of 
people. The grain is high in dietary fiber and calcium. It also has medicinal attributes and used by diverse 
communities for making special foods for diabetics, gluten free food for people suffering from celiac disease and 
weaning food for infants (Cgiar, 2011). Finger millet contain nutritionally important starch fraction, which are 
slowly digested, absorbed and favourable in diet pattern for metabolic disorders such as diabetes, hypertension, 
and obesity (Devi and Sathyabama, 2014).  
The grain by proportion contains 9.2% proteins, 1.29% fats, 76.32% carbohydrates, 2.2% mineral, 3.90% ash, 
0.33% calcium (Beddington, 2010b). Vitamin A, B and phosphorous are also present in smaller quantities. Iodine 
content in finger millet is reported to be the highest among food grain (Carletto and Banerjee, 2014). Finger 
millet taste better than most other cereals (Cgiar, 2011). It has no major pest problem and so can be stored 
cheaply for a long time (Bayala et al., 2002). The straw has an immense utility as fodder for both draught and 
milk animals. It makes good fodder and contain up to 61% of total digestible nutrients (Cgiar, 2011).  
According to Devi and Sathyabama (2014), finger millet is a lost crop. It is an orphan crop because very little 
research has been done towards its production in Zimbabwe. Those who try to grow finger millet usually obtain 
low yields possibly due to lack of certified seeds and poor agronomic practices (Beddington, 2010b). A notable 
agronomic practice responsible for low yield of finger millet is lack of suitable establishment method under 
dry-land conditions (Chandan, 2018). While broadcasting is the widely adopted planting method of finger 
millet production in Zimbabwe including Zaka district, information on the other methods like transplanting and 
hand drilling is scant. Therefore, the study seeks to assess the influence of different establishment methods 
(broadcasting, drilling and transplanting) on grain yield and yield parameters of finger millet.  
2. Materials and Methods 
2.1 Study site 
The experiment was carried out at Dorcas Charare’s demonstration plot in ward 24 of Zaka district with the GPS 
coordinates: Latitude: 20.466723; Longitude: 31.4736366. The site is located 5km east of Jerera growth point. 
The area receives a total of 561.7mm rainfall per annum that was unimodal from November 2018 to April 2019. 
Rainfall in this area is usually poorly distributed and thus naturally falls under natural region IV which is 
frequented by mid-season dry spell and droughts.  
Temperature ranges from minimum 16oC to maximum 28oC under normal conditions, with some chances of 
dropping to less than 10oC in the coldest month of July and rising to above 35oC especially in October month. It 
has light sandy loam soils with a moderate depth approximately 1m with some pockets of sodicity in surrounding 
areas. The soil is inherently infertile with a gentle sloping and good drainage to support crop production. In order 
to realise good harvest farmers, nourish the soil with adequate manure and fertilizer. The land has been under 
cultivation of food crops with fertilizer and manure use. Crops grown include maize, groundnuts, cow peas, 
sesame and sweat potatoes entirely on dry land conditions (ZimVAC, 2019).

2.2 Experimental Design 
A Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) replicated three times was used. Three treatments namely 
Broadcasting, Drilling and Transplanting establishment methods were used giving a total of nine plots covering 
an area of 128m2. Slope was the blocking factor. Each of the three replications had three plots measuring 5m by 
2m each which is the same as that by Dida et al. (2008) in an experiment conducted to determine population 
structure and diversity in finger millet (Eleusine coracana L. Gaertn) germplasm. The finger millet variety used 
in the experiment was FMV1The distance between blocks was 1m and a 0.5m between the individual plots 
within a block. The experiment gross plot area was 128m2 and a net plot area of 27m2.

2.3 Plot Management/ Agronomic Practices 
Land preparation 
The land was prepared early in May 2018 by ploughing using an ox-drawn mouldboard plough. This was done to 
burry trash and allow for decomposition. A second ploughing was done in November 2018 when a total rainfall 
of 20mm was received. Some 0.1tonnes of well rotten farmyard manure was applied before second ploughing to 
improve soil fertility. In smallholder and subsistent farming practices, ploughing is usually done using an 
ox-drawn plough (McDonald, 2015). A fine tilth in the seedbed was achieved by light harrowing to improve soil 
seed contact and ensure good germination of the small finger millet grains.  
Planting 
Dry planting was adopted as recommended by Stacey et al. (2012). The seed was mixed with fine river sand before 
planting. This was recommended by Alumira and Rusike (2005) so as to reduce wastage due to over application 
since the grains are too small. According to FAO (2015), a seed rate of 5kg/ha is recommended for dry land small

grain production. In this study, 100g of FMV1 seed was planted by hand on all broadcasting and drilling plots. The 
nursery bed was also planted on the same day as drilling and broadcasting plots. Drill lines were spaced at 40cm to 
get a maximum of five lines per plot as used by Alumira and Rusike (2005). The seed was covered by dragging a 
branch of tree across the planted area to allow a thin film of soil on the planted seeds. The first effective rains were 
received in December with a total of 94.8mm. 
Transplanting and thinning 
Transplanting was done after three weeks from crop emergence when the plants had attained four leaves of 
growth. Seedlings from the nursery bed were planted on the transplanting treatment plots at 40cm inter-row and 
10cm in-row spacings on the same day when there was adequate moisture in the soil. On the same day, thinning 
of plants from the broadcasting and drilling plots was accomplished to attain a plant population of 250 plants per 
plot which corresponds to the recommended finger millet plant population of 250 000 plants per hectare by 
Agricultural research (2012) and Chandan (2018). Plant population from individual plots was the same for all 
treatments; with broadcasting adopting a scattered spacing format.  
Weed management 
Weeds can seriously affect yields if not controlled and therefore first weeding should be done 2-3 weeks after 
emergence and second weeding 2 weeks after the first weeding (Agricultural Research, 2012). In this experiment, 
mechanical and hand pulling weeding was done to control weeds. A total of four weeding regimes were 
undertaken. The first weeding was done 2 weeks after crop emergence to destroy early weeds while the second 
and third weeding at peak vegetative growth stage and at flowering respectively. The fourth weeding was a 
cleaning exercise at physiological maturity stage to destroy late weeds and allow weed free plots for easy 
harvesting. The common weeds found were Richadia scabra, Eleusine indica, Bidens pillosa and Galinsoga 
parviflora. 
Fertilizer application 
The field was fallowed for one season which means, it was last cultivated in 2016 for groundnut crop production. 
Some 0.1tonnes of farmyard manure was applied uniformly on the experiment plots at a rate of 8 tons/ha as 
recommended by FAO (2015) in order to improve the soil organic matter content, moisture retention ability and 
soil structure. As recommended by Fetene et al. (2011), 3kg fertilizer compound D fertiliser (7:14:7) was used as 
basal dressing before planting. This amount translates to an acceptable rate of 200kg/ha also recommended by 
Ebanyat et al. (2010).  
The recommended rate of fertilizer Ammonium Nitrate (AN) for top dressing is 150kg/ha according to Ebanyat 
et al. (2010). According to this rate, 2kg AN fertilizer was split applied on this experiment since the soil was 
sandy loam with some high chances of leaching caused by cyclone Idai excessive rains experienced mid-season. 
The 1st half amount of AN application was done at the 5-6 leaf stage and the other half at flowering. The same 
type and amount of fertilizers was applied in all the treatments in the experiment. 
Pest and disease management 
The common pests encountered were aphids and some caterpillars of the species Helianthus. These were noticed 
during scouting at vegetative and flowering stages. Control was done by means of spraying Carbaryl 85 WP and 
dimethoate 40 EC at recommended label rates. Some ladybird beetles were also noticed but were beneficial in 
the biological control of aphids. Proper management of weeds also helped to reduce pest incidences. Pest control 
was uniform across all the treatments to reduce bias of results as supported by Cgiar (2011) and FAO (2016). 
Data collection 
The following data was collected and recorded to the required format by the hired and trained lead farmer; plant 
height, number of tillers formed, panicle length, panicle number grain yield. 
1. Plant height  
Data on plant height was taken from the five randomly selected plants in the net plots and measured using a 
transparent meter ruler from 14 days after emergence and /or transplanting followed by subsequent two weeks 
intervals until the plants matured at 98 days. At this period there was no more increase in plant height. The 
measurements were taken from ground level up to the plant tip.  
2. Number of tillers formed  
The number of tillers per plant of the selected plants per treatment was counted after an initial thinning of the 
broadcasting and drilling plots to the required plant population. The number of tillers was counted at intervals of 



as.ideasspread.org   Agricultural Science Vol. 1, No. 1; 2019 

 51       Published by IDEAS SPREAD 
 

two weeks until when there was no more increase in tillers formed. 
3. Length of heads formed (Panicle length) 
The length of panicles for the randomly selected plants were measured at 2 weeks from head emergence until the 
panicles reached physiological maturity when there was no more elongation of the panicles. 
4. Number of heads formed (panicle number) 
Number of heads formed was counted once after the plants reached physiological maturity at 90 days.  
5. Grain yield  
Grain yield was measured at the end of the study period where all heads were harvested from the net plots of all 
the treatments when the crop reached physiological maturity. Selected plots of each treatment (broadcasting, 
drilling and transplanting) were individually harvested to obtain the actual yield per each treatment plot. After 
threshing and winnowing, the grain from each of the three individual treatments was weighed. Again, grain from 
all broadcasting plots, all drilling plots and all transplanting plots was weighed using an electronic scale. Average 
yield in tonnes per hectare for the three treatments under study was obtained and the data was taken for analysis. 
Statistical Data Analysis 
The collected data was subjected to Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) using GenStat 14.1, Copyright 2011; VNS, 
International Ltd. Mean separation was done by using Fisher’s protected least significance test at 5% 
significance level.

4. Discussion  
Effects of establishment methods on finger millet plant height 
In situ methods of planting finger millet such as drilling and broadcasting recorded no significant differences on 
plant height. These results were in consonance with those of Maobe et al. (2014) and FAO (2016) in a similar 
experiment on effect of plant density, growth and grain yield of finger millet under high potential conditions in 
Kenya. Bhatta et al. (2017) reported contrasting results showing drilling being superior on plant height than 
transplanting but this was under high rainfall of 700mm per annum. Transplanting recorded the highest plant 
height possibly because of vigorous growth attained when new roots developed after the transplanting shock. 
Bitew and Asargew (2014) states that vigorous root development induces plant growth and increased height. The 
increase in height on transplanted plants might be due to roots of finger millet plants having least competition 
under wider spacing so that growth is stimulated by sunlight and space for the canopy expansion. According to 
Dereji et al. (2016), plant height of finger millet was significantly influenced by spacing and it was maximum 
(92.97 cm) with 50 cm row spacing and followed by 40 cm row spacing (91.84 cm) in an experiment on 
influence of row spacing and seed rate on yield components of finger millet at Assosa zone in Benshagul 
Gumuze region of Ethiopia. 
Effects of finger millet establishment methods on tiller number per plant 



as.ideasspread.org   Agricultural Science Vol. 1, No. 1; 2019 

 54       Published by IDEAS SPREAD 
 

The study revealed that transplanting method of planting was significantly (p<0.001) superior over both drilling 
and broadcasting on tiller number. This can be attributed to more space between plants in transplanting method 
which gave a greater number of tillers per plant at all the growth stages as compared to drilled and broadcasted 
plants. The individual transplanted plants could have effectively utilized the available resources such as space, 
foraging area for root system, light utilization and thus enhanced the tiller production at wider spaced treatments. 
This can be attributed to more space between plants in transplanting method as compared to broadcasted and 
drilled plants. Sarawale et al. (2016) assets that tillering in cereal small grains can be induced by transplanting 
shock as well as wide spacing between individual plants. Drilling and broadcasting establishment methods did 
not differ significantly on tillering because the plants were planted in-situ and there was competition for growth 
in the first two weeks before thinning. This is supported by Maobe et al. (2014) in an experiment conducted 
under high potential conditions of Kisii highlands, southwest Kenya (KARI) which reported that transplanting in 
finger millet production induces tiller formation which also influences panicle number and grain yield. Awan et 
al. (2007), Kalaraju et al. (2011) and Dahal and Khadka (2012) recorded similar findings of increased number of 
tillers on transplanting method. 
Effects of establishment methods on panicle number per plant of finger millet 
Transplanted plants of finger millet resulted in significantly higher (p<0.001) mean number of panicles per hill 
than the drilled and broadcasted plants. Increase in panicle number from broadcasted plants, drilled to 
transplanted plants was 86, 139 and 159 per cent respectively. This showed that transplanting establishment 
method of finger millet was superior on number of panicles compared to the drilling and broadcasting methods. 
The results showed that there were no significant differences on panicle number per hill between broadcasting 
(3.13a) and drilling (3.40a). This means tillering has a direct correlation on panicle number. The more the 
tillering the more the number of panicles. Similar findings were also reported by Gavit et al. (2017) in an 
experiment conducted to evaluate the effect of establishment techniques and sowing time on yield and yield 
attributes of Proso Millet. This is also in conformity with Herbal et al. (2018) in his experiment on comparing 
finger millet yield on different establishment method and fertilizer amounts in India showed that transplanted 
plants recorded highest number of panicles than broadcasted and drilled plants. 
Effects of establishment methods on panicle length of finger millet 
Panicle length is one of the important yield attributing parameters, which influenced the grain yield directly. The 
length of ear has a positive correlation with the number of grains per plant and ultimately on the grain yield of 
the crop (Chandan, 2018). The length of panicle was significantly different (p<0.05) amongst the treatments. 
This might be due to higher moisture availability for transplanted plants owing to better moisture conservation 
and due to more vegetative growth resulting from efficient use of nutrients, water, radiation and increased 
metabolic activities. This is supported by Michaelraj and Shahmugam (2013) who asserts that length of panicles 
was found to be highest (8.8 cm) with transplanted plants and lowest (6.5cm) with broadcasted plants. The 
results were also in conformity with those obtained by Suresh (2013) in an experiment on Integrated nitrogen 
management under different crop establishment methods in summer pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.) under 
middle Gujarat conditions in India.  
Effect of establishment method on finger millet grain yield 
There was an increase in grain yield recorded under transplanting over that of broadcasting of seeds by 45.7 per 
cent. Also, increase in grain yield recorded in transplanting over drilling of seeds was 27.5 per cent. Similarly, 
increase in grain yield recorded in drilling over broadcasting of seeds was 14.3 per cent. These results were in 
conformity with Sarawale et al. (2016) in an experiment on effects of different varieties and establishment 
methods on growth and yield of finger millet under Konkan conditions in India. The increased yield attributes in 
transplanting establishment method might be due to increased growth and plant development resulting in 
increased yield attributes (Gavit et al., 2017). In addition, Bekele et al. (2016) reported similar findings for 
different spacing (40cm x 10cm, 30cm x 10cm and 20cm x 10cm) on grain yield in an experiment conducted in 
Gumuz region of Ethiopia. Bekele et al. (2016) found that increasing the spacing led to increased tillering, 
panicle number and grain yield. This may have been attributed to more space between plants that resulted in 
higher number of tillers, panicle number and more grains from the wider spacing in transplanting compared to 
the closer spacing and scattered stands in broadcasting establishment method. The adverse effect of competition 
between plants associated with closer spacing and scattered stand may have been significant positively affecting 
yield in broadcasting establishment method.  
5. Conclusion  
From the results of this study, it can be concluded that the establishment methods that were tested does not have 



as.ideasspread.org   Agricultural Science Vol. 1, No. 1; 2019 

 55       Published by IDEAS SPREAD 
 

a significant effect on plant height. However, establishment method significantly influenced the number of tillers 
with broadcasting recording the least as compared to transplanting and drilling methods. Furthermore, grain 
yield was a function of tiller number, number of panicles and panicle length.  
Recommendations  
The researcher recommends farmers to adopt the transplanting method for finger millet production in Zaka 
District so as to realise high yield. However, further research is recommended to establish the correct plant 
population for optimum production as the current level of 250 000 plants per hectare was inadequate for a 
conclusive determination of the exact plant population desirable for the finger millet variety FMV1.
