Abstract
The experiment was conducted on experimental farm at Department of Agricultural Meteorology, College of Agriculture, Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Krishi Vidyapeeth, Parbhani, during Kharif season 2017 entitled “Influence of weather parameters on growth and yield of different genotypes of green gram (vigna radiata. L) under different sowing dates” to study the relationship between meteorological parameters and different sowing dates and its impact on yield of different genotypes green gram. The experiment was conducted in Spilt plot design with three replications. Treatments comprised of four sowing dates in main plot D1 24th MW, D2 26th MW, D3 28th MW and D4 30th MW with four varieties in sub plot viz. Vaibhav, BM-4, BM-2002-1 and BM-2003-2. The results obtained from the experiment revealed that all the biometric observations plant height, number of functional leaves, number of branches, dry matter, number of pods, pod length, number of seeds pod-1 in kharif green gram were significantly highest in D1 24th MW (16th June) followed by D2 26th MW (30th June), D3 28th (14th July) and D4 30th MW (28th July) respectively. The green gram variety BM-2003-2 was found to be highly productive as compared to Vaibhav, BM-4, and BM-2002-1.
