Response of Mungbean Genotypes to Different Dates of Sowing in Kharif Season under Rainfed Conditions

摘要

An experiment was conducted to study the effect of different sowing date s on grain yield and yield attributing components on mungbean genotypes sown during kharif under rainfed conditions. It was observed that delay in sowing caused a substaintial decrease in all the growth and development parameters recorded. Genotypes responded significantly towards the grain yield . Maximum grain yield of 1668 kg ha^-1 was produced by advanced breeding line (NCM-209) when sown early in the season (5th July). It was concluded that first week of July was found to be ideal tome of sowing for mungbean and NCM-209 performs better than other genotypes.
