Effect of different sowing dates on growth and yield of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) under irrigated condition

This research aims to identify the appropriate sowing date for better yield of chickpea, The experiment was conducted during 2018-2019, involving three different sowing dates (24 Oct, 13 Nov and 3 Dec.) along with three different chickpea varieties, In this research yield and base characteristics were analysed. The study focused on yield elements, such as grain yield and biological yield, Date 24 Oct gave the highest yield (1631 kg ha-1) with different sowing varieties. On the other hand, the date 3 Dec had the lowest yield (1220 kg ha-1) with different Sowing varieties. The results showed that the sowing date influence significantly the growth and yield of chickpea.
