GROWTH ANALYSIS IN PIGEONPEA (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp) AS INFLUENCED BY DATE OF SOWINGS

Abstract

                                An experiment conducted with pigeonpea in three different dates namely 21-2-84 (summer), 21-6-84 (monsoon) and 21-9-84 (winter) revealed that significant higher LAI and CGR was noticed in summer sowings. The Dry Matter Accumulation (DMA) was found to be also maximum in summer sowings. It was mainly influenced through the longer croppings period and also higher LAI and CGR. It was also evident from this study that CGR in pigeonpea was more influenced by LA! rather than NAR.
