Abstract


Many crop plants are sensitive to season and these so-called season-bound crops are grown successfully or otherwise depending on the climatic factors obtainable. In general, the sum total of factors do not vary over a wide range within a season but the weather conditions obtainable during the period of crop growth is of paramount importance in the agronomy of a crop. In the absence of irrigation facilities, there is a shift in the sowing schedule depending upon the receipt of adequate rainfall. With uncertainities of rainfall, there has necessarily to be a delay in sowing and how far the 'late' sowing affects the growth and yield of a crop is an important knowledge in practical agriculture. A systematic study on the varied aspects implied in or consequent on 'late sowing was taken up in groundnut.
