Abstract
ABSTRACT
Two field experiments were conducted to study the "agrotechniques to enhance Kabul
chickpea productivity in transition zone of Kamataka" at the Agricultural college Farm, Universit)
of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad, Kamataka, during rabi seasons of 1997-98 and 1998-99.
Irrigation at 0.8 IW/CPE ratio recorded significantly higher grain yield (1617.94 kg/ha)
compared to no irrigation. The maximum total dry matter production (10.81 g plant "'), leaf aree
index (1.33) and consumptive use of water (206.6mm) were recorded at 0.8 IW/CPE ratio. Th(
higher number of pods per plant (49.32) and 100-grain weight (25.76 g) were recorded due tc
irrigation at 0.4IW/CPE ratio, which also accounted for maximum dry matter accumulation ir
reproductive parts 7.8Ig plant"').
