In a field trial conducted to study the effect of sowing dates and plant protection on growth and yield of pigeonpea varieties, an increase in grain yield by 25 per cent over control was observed with plant protection. The plant height, number of primary branches per plant, days to 50 per cent flowering, days to maturity and grain yield were significantly higher in TTB-7 compared to Hy-3C and were reduced significantly with delay in sowing from 10th July to 27th August.
