dc.description.abstractAbstract: The present investigation entitled, “Response of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) to foliar application of gibberellic acid” , was conducted during the Rabi 2018-19 on the research farm of Pulse Research Unit, Washim Road Farm, Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola . The experiment was carried out to study the response of chickpea to foliar application of gibberellic acid on growth, yield, quality of chickpea, as well as to study its effect on economics of chickpea production. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with three replications. The treatments comprised of Control, Water spray at flower and pod initiation, Foliar application of 15 ppm GA3 at flower initiation (T3),Foliar application of 30 ppm GA3 at flower initiation, Foliar application of 45 ppm GA3 at flower initiation, Foliar application of 15 ppm GA3 at pod initiation, Foliar application of 30 ppm GA3 at pod initiation, Foliar application of 45 ppm GA3 at pod initiation, Foliar application of 15 ppm GA3 at flower and pod initiation, Foliar application of 30 ppm GA3 at flower and pod initiation, Foliar application of 45 ppm GA3 at flower and pod initiation. The soil of experimental field was characterized as clay in texture, having slightly alkaline pH (8.0), moderate in organic carbon status (0.40%), low in nitrogen content (174 kg ha-1), available phosphorus content (22 kg ha-1) and high in potassium status (568 kg ha-1). Chickpea variety JAKI-9218 was sown on 13th November 2018 at 30 cm x 10 cm spacing with 25:50:30 kg N: P2O5: K2O ha-1. The crop was harvested on 5th March 2019. Single application of 45ppm GA3 at flower initiation recorded significantly higher plant height at 68 DAS. Single application of 45ppm GA3 at flower initiation recorded significantly more number of leaves plant-1 at 49 DAS and recorded significantly higher leaf area plant-1 (22.10 cm2) and significantly higher values of ‘total chlorophyll’ At 49 DAS. At 49 and 68 DAS and at harvest, two applications of 30 ppm GA3 at flower and pod initiation stages recorded significantly higher dry matter accumulation in chickpea crop. Out of eleven treatments tested under experiment, the yield attributing parameters like number pods plant-1, grain yield plant-1 and seed index were found significantly highest in foliar treatment application of 30 ppm GA3 at flower and pod initiation stages. This treatment also recorded significantly highest grain yield kg ha-1 among all the treatments. The effect of various treatments on grain protein content was found non- significant. Highest gross monetary returns and net monetary returns were found in the treatment of two applications of 30ppm GA3 at flower and pod initiation stages. However, two applications of 15ppm GA3 at flower and pod initiation stages recorded higher value of benefit: cost ratio. The effect of various treatments on nutrient uptake by the chickpea crop was found non- significant.en_US
