Due to limitations of time, I wish to concentrate on progress made in the first two areas, which are relevant to the present workshop. Drought research in groundnut at IC began in 1980, with experiments to examine the timing of irrigation and plant population. Screening of genotypes for drought tolerance began after the 198 1-82 post-rainy season. date: 1994 date_type: published pagerange: 25-29 event_title: Selection for Water-use Efficiency in Grain Legumes Report of a workshop event_location: ICRISAT Patancheru , India event_dates: 5-7 May 1993 event_type: workshop refereed: TRUE related_url_url: http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?as_q=Drought+Research+on+Groundnut+at+ICRISAT+Centre&num=10&btnG=Search+Scholar&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_occt=title&as_sauthors=&as_publication=&as_ylo=&as_yhi=&as_sdt=1.&as_sdtp=on&as_sdtf=&as_sdts=5&hl=en related_url_type: author citation: Rao, R C N (1994) Drought Research on Groundnut at ICRISAT Centre.
