Paper Summary

The study looked at how different spacings between pigeonpea plants affect their growth and yield. They tested four spacings and three genotypes of pigeonpea. The spacing of 120 x 15 cm and 60 x 60 -120 cm gave the highest yields. Among the genotypes, BDN-711 performed the best, followed by MUTANT (M)-853 and BSMR-853.
