โฆ Synopsis
A iiiodel has been developed for forecasting of crop yields in which growth indicctj of biometrical characters based on two or more periods simultaneously have been utilised. The growth indices are obtained as weighted accumulations of observations on biometrical characters in different periods, weights being respective correlation coefficients between yield and biometrical chara.cters. This model has been found better than the models in use.
