Growth, productivity and economics of kabuli chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) genotypes in response to seed rate in Northern India

Seed is a basic and costly input in agriculture. Genotypes of a crop varying in seed size and growth behaviour may differ in optimal seed rate for realizing high grain yields. Field experiments were conducted for three years at Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana, India to study the growth, productivity and economics of kabuli chickpea genotypes in response to seeding rate.
