Effect of bioregulators on yield and yield attributes of Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)

A field experiment entitled “Effect of irrigation and phosphorous levels on yield attributes and yield of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)” conducted at the Agronomy Research Farm of Narendra Deva University of Agriculture & Technology, Kumarganj, Faizabad during two consecutive rabi seasons of 2004-05 and 2005-06. The results revealed that, the application of two irrigations, one each at branching and pod formation stage in conjunction with 60 Kg P2O5/ha provided highest yield and yield contributing characters of chickpea as compared to other treatments.

The field experiment entitled “Pre-sowing seed treatment with organic and inorganic treatments on growth, yield and yield attributes of desi chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)”variety (Pusa-362) was conducted during rabi at Field Experimentation Centre of the Department of Genetics and Plant Breeding, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology & Sciences, Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, India during 2020 - 2021. The experiment consisted of 13 treatments which was laid in Randomized Block Design (RBD). Results revealed that seeds treated with T9 (vermiwash 6% solution) recorded maximum values in growth parameters viz., germination percentage at 4,7,14 DAS with 10.833%, 44.17, 74.17%, plant height at 30, 60, 90 DAS with 16.60, 41.00, 53.80 cm Days to flowering (74.67 days), number of branches 6.93 branches per plant, number of pods per plant with 36.10 pods per plant, number of seeds 52.30 seeds per plant and pod weight per plant with 24.49 gm. Similar results were observed in yield parameters where highest seed yield per plant was observed in T9 (vermiwash 6% solution) with 30.35 gm and seed yield per plot 171.7 gm.

Background: Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is the third most important pulse crop produced after dry bean and peas in the world. Amongst pulses, chickpea is the major crop in India but for international market the quality of this crop has to be improved which may be possible by evaluation of different planting techniques. No systematic research and adequate technologies have been reported in Punjab on intercropping of different crops in chickpea. The current study aimed to find out the effect of different intercrops on growth and yield of bed planted chickpea based intercropping systems.Methods: A field experiment was carried out during the rabi season of 2017 and 2018 to evaluate the productivity and economic viability of bed planted chickpea based intercropping systems.The experiment was laid out in a randomized block design consisting of four replications with thirteen treatments.Result: Results showed that sole chickpea recorded highest seed yield and it was statistically at par with seed yield that obtained under chickpea + oats fodder (2:1), chickpea + oats fodder (4:1) and chickpea + linseed (4:1) intercropping systems. However, oilseed rape and barley as intercrops showed adverse effect on yield and yield attributes of chickpea. Chickpea + oats fodder in 2:1 row ratio recorded highest chickpea equivalent yield of 24.07 and 24.77 q/ha and system productivity of 15.96 and 15.60 kg/ha/day during 2017 and 2018, respectively. Higher net returns (Rs. 63098 and 70924/ha), benefit cost ratio (1.47 and 1.63) and production efficiency (417.9 and 446.1 Rs/ha/day) were also recorded in chickpea + oats fodder (2:1) intercropping system over sole chickpea (Rs. 44862 and 53769/ha and 1.21 and 1.41) during both the years. Chickpea + oats fodder (4:1), chickpea + linseed (2:1) and chickpea + linseed (4:1) also recorded significantly higher chickpea equivalent yield, net returns and benefit cost ratio as compared to sole chickpea.

Cicer Arietinum L

Field experiments conducted in black soils, having low organic carbon and available N, medium P, high K and extractable molybdenum below the critical limit (less than 0.2ppm), to assess the effect of fertilizers, vermicompost (VC), amritpani (AP), biofertilizers inoculation (BFSI) viz., Rhizobium + Phosphorus solublizing bacteria + Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria with molybdenum application on chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). Eight treatments viz. T1- Control (Recommended dose of fertilizers (RDF), T2- RDF + Ammonium molybdate (AM) @ 1 g kg-1 seed with BFSI, T3- Spray of AP at 30 and 60 DAS + AM @ 1 g kg-1 seed with BFSI, T4- VC @ 2 t ha-1 + AM @ 1 g kg-1 seed with BFSI, T5 -AP spray at 30 and 60 DAS + VC@ 2 t ha-1 + AM @ 1 g kg-1 seed with BFSI, treatments: T6, T7 and T8 consisted of 50% RDF with T3, T4 and T5 respectively, were tried in RBD. Nodulation, plant height, branches plant-1, number of pods plant-1, seed index, chlorophyll content and Uptake of NPK recorded significantly higher with T2,T6,T7 and T8 over T1 with maximum under T8 (50% RDF + T4) followed by with T7. As regards the grain yield, treatments T7, T8 and T2 resulted in significant yield increase by 27.5, 28.2 and 25.6% over RDF alone (1692 kg ha-1). Actinomycetes, Fungi and DHA recorded higher in soil wherever organics (vermicompost) and bio fertilizers inoculation was done. Available NPK in soil after crop harvest was recorded better with the integrated nutrient inputs.
