A field experiment was conducted for two consecutive years i.e 1974-75 and 1975-76 to study the effect of crynprotectants on productivity of gram. Foliar spray ofcryoproter;tant DMSO (10-3 moles) was most effective, followed by H2S04 (0.1%), ZnS04 (01%) and Urea (1%). Theother chemicals, glucose (1%), chloromequat (10-3 molesl and terbutryn (10-3 moles) were found less effective in the order named. The increase in grain yield was found associated with increase in number of branches/plant and pods/plant. Further, the schedule of two sprays, one at 50% flowering and the other 10 days thereafter,was found significantly belleI' than one spray at either of the stages.
