Abstract
A field study was conducted at the Research Farm of NWFP, Agricultural University, Pakistan. Chickpea (Cicer aeritinum L.) cultivar, ‘Hassan-2000’, was sown as a winter crop under conventional tillage (CT) or no-tillage (NT) dryland systems in a randomized complete block design with split plot arrangement using four replications. Three levels of phosphorus (P; 0, 80 and 120 kg P2O5 ha−1) were broadcast applied at the time of last plowing and were thoroughly mixed in subplot size of 1.8 × 5 m. About 20% less weed biomass and 2% higher grain yield was recorded under CT than in NT. Plots supplied with P2O5 had higher value of the all the parameters under study except number of plant m−2 when compared with control (no P applied). However, the grain yield response to P beyond 80 kg ha−1 was not positive. CT + 80 kg P2O5 ha−1 was identified as the optimum level for maximum chickpea production under the existing dryland condition where application of herbicides in NT is not possible. Further experiments to study the optimization of P in chickpea production under dryland conditions are required.
