Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during winter seasons of 2020-21 and 2021-22 at the AICRP on Agrometeorology, College of Agricultural Engineering, JNKVV, Jabalpur (M.P.) to study the effect of varying environments on growth and yield of chickpea cultivars. The experiment was laid out in Split Plot Design consisting three growing environments as main plot treatment (15th November, 30th November and 15th December) and three cultivars of chickpea as sub plot treatment of (JG14, JGK1 and JG 36) with three replications. The result of study revealed that among three different sowing environments crop sown on 30th November was recorded significantly superior growth attributes, yield attributes and yield followed by early sown environment (15th November) and late sown environment (15th December). Among the chickpea cultivars, JG 14 proved the best with respect to growth parameters, yield-attributes, yield and economics followed by JG 36 and JGK 1. Cultivar JG14 with sowing environments of 30th November gave the higher values of growth parameters, yield attributes and yield of chickpea.

Conclusion

Based on the foregoing discussion, it could be concluded that 30th November sown crop was noted significantly higher growth parameters, yield attributes and yield of chickpea as compared to 15th November and 15th December sowing environments. Among the chickpea cultivars, JG 14 proved the best with respect to growth parameters, yield-attributes, yield, quality and economics over the other cultivars. JG14 with sowing environments of 30th November gave the higher values of growth parameters, yield attributes and seed yield as compared to other combinations.
