Varietal demonstrationAbstract
Front Line Demonstrations were conducted in sandy loam soils under rainfed conditions in western mandals of Chittoor dist. during 2017-18, 2018-19, and 2019-20 by Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Kalikiri to demonstrate the new Groundnut variety Dharani. The data pooled over three successive years revealed that significantly higher number of pods per plant (28.7 and 24.3 in Dharani and Kadiri 6, respectively), 100 fresh pod weight 188.2 and 144.2 g in Dharani and Kadiri 6, respectively) and 100 seed 76.6 and 49.8 g in Dharani and Kadiri 6, respectively) weight, 100 dry pods (104.0 and 94.3 in Dharani and Kadiri 6, respectively) and seed (42.6 and 38.8 in Dharani and Kadiri 6, respectively) weight, yield (28.7 and 24.3 q ha-1 in Dharani and Kadiri 6, respectively), net returns 12.45 and 10.7 Rs ha-1 in Dharani and Kadiri 6, respectively) and B: C ratio (1.23 and 1.09 in Dharani and Kadiri 6, respectively) were recorded in Dharani compared to local variety Kadiri 6, and Dharani proved best for western mandals of Chittoor dist. during Kharif.References
