Cultivars for Irrigation-Based Production in Ethiopia"^^ . "Development of irrigation-based chickpea production is considered the most important alternative approach in\r\ncombating climate change and maximizing productivity, especially in moisture-stress areas and in areas where\r\nwater and land for irrigation is available. In central Ethiopia, where production of chickpea (especially Kabuli\r\ntype) is becoming an important part of agriculture, although many superior varieties (both desi and Kabuli types)\r\nare available, they have been evaluated and released based on rainfed production. Hence, there is an urgent need\r\nfor evaluation of varieties suited for irrigation-based production. Towards this goal, during the 2012/13 growing\r\nseason, 14 Kabuli genotypes (previously introduced) and 24 desi genotypes (nurseries obtained from ICRISAT)\r\nwere evaluated independently at three and one locations respectively (Kabuli at Debre Zeit, Ambo and Werer;\r\ndesi at Debre Zeit) for production adaptation under irrigation. The parameters evaluated were date of maturity,\r\n100-seed weight and yield. Overall, while most Kabuli genotypes showed high adaptability to irrigation-based\r\nproduction at all locations, four Kabuli genotypes (X96TH-52-14/2000 = 106.7DAS, FLIP-02-39C = 107DAS,\r\nX98TH-51-1-3 = 107.9DAS and ICCV-07313 = 107DAS) were found to be earlier in maturity; two genotypes\r\n(ICCV-07313 = 42.5 g and ICCV-04305 = 37.8 g) were identified as having high 100-seed weight and one\r\ngenotype (ICCV-05309 = 3228.8 kg/ha or 32 quintals/ha) out yielded all genotypes across locations. The result\r\nof combined analysis indicated five promising genotypes showing more than 20 kg/ha yield on average. All desi\r\nvarieties showed maturity dates of under four months; six genotypes showed higher 100-seed weight and eight\r\ngenotypes showed promising yield responses (> 2000 kg/ha). From these preliminary results, it can be deduced\r\nthat irrigation can play a significantly complementary role to the rainfed system, provided the genetics by\r\nmanagement is optimized through research and innovation."^^ .
