Abstract


Field experiment conducted in the rabi season showed that the branching in groundnut was significantly higher under the improved package of practices as recommended by ICRISAT, when compared with the recommended package of practices of the Department of Agriculture, Maharashtra State, Pune at all the stages of crop growth. In general, groundnut CV. ICGS 11 and ICGS 44 recorded more number of branches/plant while CV. SB XI and ICGS 21 had lower branches. Dry pod yield /ha was significantly higher in ICRISAT recommendation CVICGS 11 and ICGS 44 were equally efficient and significantly superior in producing dry pod yield/ha. However, dry haulm yield/ha was not significantly influenced either by the different package of practices or varieties.
