Experiment code CI-CP-01
Experiment Title Large Scale Varietal Trial (Rain fed) on chickpea
Research Type State Trial
Experiment Background The chickpea (Cicer arietinum) trail for rainfed conditions involves cultivating chickpeas in regions where irrigation is predominantly reliant on rainfall rather than supplemental watering. Chickpeas are an excellent choice for rainfed cultivation due to their resilience to water scarcity and adaptability to diverse agro-climatic conditions. Understanding the specific requirements of chickpea varieties suited for rainfed farming, such as drought-tolerant and early-maturing varieties, is crucial. Additionally, implementing soil conservation practices, optimizing sowing dates based on the onset of monsoons, and adopting efficient water management strategies are key components of a successful chickpea trail in rainfed conditions. This trail aims to enhance chickpea productivity while mitigating the challenges posed by erratic rainfall patterns, contributing to sustainable agriculture and food security in rainfed regions.
