Abstract

Developed for low-input rainfed cultivation in Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Maharashtra, India, where rust (Puccinia arachidis) and late leaf spot (Mycosphaerella berkeleyi) are problematic, this variety was derived by the bulk pedigree method from a cross between Ah65 and NC Ac 17090, a rust resistant Valencia germplasm line. Pod yield is superior to that of local cultivars in many countries, including Sri Lanka were it yielded 100% more than the local cultivar. It has shown resistance to Sclerotium [Corticium] rolfsii and good tolerance of drought stress. Growth period is over 115 days in the rainy season. Shelling turnover is 67%. The tan-coloured seeds contain 48% oil and 27% protein.
