Abstract
The adaptation of a crop or its CUltivar and the associated production techniques are the resultant of an interplay of biological (genetic), physical (soil, climate), and environmental (management, socioeconomic] factors. According to Byth and Mungomrry (1981), thc term adaptation has been applied to both a process and a condition. On one hand, it is used to refer to the actions or processes that keep on changing to suit new circumstances. On the other hand it may be used to refer to the state or condition of "adaptedness", i.c., to the performance of a genetic: population in an environment or a range of environments. They concluded that both these aspects influence the degree of adaptedness, and that it is generally difficult to distinguish one from the other.
