    Abstract

    Growing chickpea in the Philippines is a new venture although is consumed by Filipinos, the demand is met only through import. The study was conducted to determine the growth and response of chickpea to frequency of irrigation that would ensure higher yield under Philippine condition. Results revealed that the effect and the interactive effect of varieties and irrigation were significantly different on the character and yield traits of chickpea for individual plant yield. Moreover, the different frequency of irrigation has significantly influenced the number days from planting to 50% flowering, days from planting to harvesting, pods/plant, filled pods, weight of 100 seeds and yield/ha Among the different varieties and irrigation treatments, ICCV 2 with irrigation of every 15 days produced the highest yield of3,573.55 kg/ha
