SPAMAST Research Journal, 1(1), 27-40.1655-8839https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14578/147This study was conducted in SPAMAST-CAS, Matti, Digos City and at New Ilocos, Magsaysay, Davao del Sur. The general objective of the study was to evaluate the germination, growth and yield of PSBRc72H as influenced by different levels of Kappaphycus Drippings (KD). Findings of the study revealed that hybrid rice seeds soaked for 12 hours with 20 ml of KD per liter of water enhanced germination to 86.67%. KD as foliar fertilizer improved the agronomic characteristics such as plant height in cm (45 DAT), number of tillers per hill (60 DAT) and number of productive tiller per hill; and yield components such as number of filled spikelets per panicle and 1,000 seed weight (g) thereby increasing the grain yield (t/ha) of hybrid rice. KD did not influence the length of panicle (cm).enPSBRc72HKappaphycus DrippingsKDhybrid rice seedsagronomic characteristicsfoliar fertilizerhybrid riceseed germinationHybrid riceGerminationPlant regulators--Foliar applicationRiceAgronomyArticle
