    Abstract

    This document reports the research work carried out on chickpea agronomy at ICRISAT and its cooperating centers during 1986-87. Detailed studies were conducted on adaptation of chickpea to the Gwalior environment, and to cold tolerance at Hisar. An important development during this season was the identification of non-nodulating mutants among established chickpea cultivars and the testing of their suitability for use as non-fixing controls in quantification of nitrogen fixation. Green house pot tests to diagnose nutrient disorders and field plot tests to determine on-site adequacy of phosphorus, nitrogen and Rhizobium were also conducted. Advanced genotypes were evaluated on large plots with and with out irrigation
