Cridalata (CRHG-04) is a new promising [Macrotyloma
uniflorum (Lam.) Verdc.] black seeded variety of horsegram
developed by mutation breeding ( rays irradiation) and
released for south India in 2010. It matures in 85-95 days
and yields in the range of 700 to 1100 kg/ha, has high pod
number as well as synchronized brisk podding behaviour.
The normal sowing period is August second fortnight to
September end. However, with North East monsoon rains it
can be sown even in October. This variety responds to
fertilizer up to 20 N+40 P2O5 per ha and has 27.1 % protein
content. The variety is black seeded and pods do not shatter,
an important parameter which saves/conserves seed yield,
when harvesting is delayed. It is tolerant to yellow mosaic
virus, powdery mildew and mites. It recorded mean grain
yield, of 785 kg/ha in farmers’ fields, which is 34% higher
over the local varieties. It’s unique feature is that it can be
grown purely under rainfed conditions with no inputs and
ideal for small and marginal farmers especially confer
household nutritional security. Apart from being a normal
and late kharif / rabi dryland variety, it is also an excellent
contingent crop and can serve as green cover when sown in
early kharif which could be used for fodder along with being
a cover crop for soil and water conservation in watersheds.
