Performance of pigeonpea genotypes under different planting geometry

The field experiment was conducted at college of agriculture, University of Agricultural Sciences, Raichur, Karnataka state, India, during 2009-2010. This research was in farmer problem oriented in rainfed condition. In rainfed region pigeonpea growing farmers facing many problems like selection of suitable pigeonpea genotypes, maturity, duration, drought tolerance level and their suitable planting geometry (population levels)for getting higher yield. Keeping this in view for national benefit this research work was planned as "Performance of pigeonpea genotypes under different planting geometry" with following objective likes: 1) To know the performance of pigeopea genotypes under rainfed condition. 2) To study the effect of different planting geometry on growth and yield of pigeonpea genotypes. 3) To study the interaction effect of pigeonpea genotypes and planting geometry. 4) To work out the economics of the system. This experiments are helpful for all pigeonpea growing farming community under rainfed condition for getting higher yield and income.
