Description |
In a field experiment in 1990/91 in Sri Lanka, pigeonpeas cv. ICPL 2 were sown during the rainy season at densities of 4-66 plants/m². The crop was harvested on 14 March 1991 by pod picking and at the onset of postrainy season rains it was ratooned to a height of 45 cm. The highest combined yield of the main (1.77 t/ha) and the ratoon (1.93 t) crops was obtained at the density of 17 plants/m². Data on yield components are given.
