Abstract:
A research trial named “Effects of weather parameters on growth, development and yield of pigeon pea varieties” was conducted at Farm of AICRP on Agrometeorology, Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Krishi Vidyapeeth, Parbhani during kharif season 2021. The research field was laid out in split-plot design with three replications and four varieties viz. dates of sowing D₁ (25^th MW), D₂ (26^th MW), D₃ (27^thMW), D₄ (28^th MW) and varieties V₁ (BDN-711), V₂ (BSMR-736) and V₃ (BDN-716) sown with the spacing of 90 x 20 cm² using 12 treatments and 36 plots to study the crop weather relationship. The Gross plot size was 5.4 x 5.0 m² with a net plot size of one treatment was 4.5 x 4.2 m². The correlation was worked between the different weather parameters and seed yield of different varieties.
