The aim of this study was to determine the efficacy of some physico-chemical and hormonal treatments for dormancy removal / germination improvement. In laboratory experiment, seeds were subjected to various hormonal treatments like Gibberellic acid (0.01mM & 0.1mM), Indole Acetic acid (.01mM & 0.1mM) & Kinetin (0.01mM & 0.1 mM) for 24h. Seeds were also subjected to 24h, 48h running water for leaching and seed were kept for moist chilling at 4 0C for 2 months. Seeds were also treated with hormone
