Description Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Maharashtra are the
major pigeonpea-growing states in the Deccan Plateau
(DP) of India. The area under pigeonpea in Andhra
Pradesh is estimated to be around 0.42 million ha with a
production of about 0.19 million tonnes, while in Karnataka
it is grown on 0.49 million ha with a production of 0.26
million tonnes (Dharamraj et al. 2004). Of these three
states, Maharashtra has the maximum area (1.02 million
ha) with a production of about 0.77 million tonnes
(http//:agricoop.nic.in/). Diseases such as wilt (Fusarium
udum Butler) and sterility mosaic (SM Virus) are the
important biotic factors limiting its production in the DP.
