Crop Physiology Classic Growth Analysis (MARCH 2023)


Delivered on: 20 MARCH 2023


Reviewed key concepts in plant physiology, including growth stages, growth analysis parameters (absolute growth rate, relative growth rate, crop growth rate, net assimilation rate, and leaf area index), and the relationship between plant growth and environmental factors. Next, introduced the concept of growth curves, highlighting the sigmoid and logistic curve patterns commonly observed in plant growth, and discussed the influence of various factors on these curves. Lastly, provided instructions for a lab activity on leaf area measurement.


Common Parameters used in Growth Analysis.

1. Absolute Growth Rate (AGR)

2. Relative Growth Rate (RGR)

3. Crop Growth Rate (CGR)

4. Net Assimilation Rate (NAR)

5. Leaf Area Index (LAI)


Keywords: plant growth analysis, growth stages, annual plants, biennial plants, perennial plants, growth measurement, fresh weight, dry weight, length, area, absolute growth rate (AGR), relative growth rate (RGR), crop growth rate (CGR), net assimilation rate (NAR), leaf area index (LAI), sigmoid curve, logistic curve, plant physiology, botany, mathematics, linear function, non-linear function
