Abstract/ Executive Summary:

The study was conducted with ten genotypes and evaluated as germplasm 2013-14 at Natore district and were sown further in three different environments (relay so wing at optimum time as a relay crop, sole sowing at optimum time as a relay crop and sole sowing at optimum time as a sole crop) at Pulses Research Centre, Ishurdi, Pabna, Bangladesh during Rabi 2014-15 to identify suitable genotypes for relay cropping as well as for sole cropping. Ten genotypes are Natore local-1, Jhikorgacha local, IPSA-3, Bagha local, BARI Garden pea-1, BD-4190, BD-4142, BD-4181, BARI Garden pea-3 and Natore Local-2. The experiment was done in a RCB split-plot design with three replications. Each entry was sown in a plot of 8 rows x 4 m length plot with line to line spacing of 35 cm and plant to plant 7 cm. Post sowing irrigation was given to ensure seed germination in sole condition while relay sowing was done under optimum soil moisture condition. There were significant difference in pod yield and fodder yields, days to first pod harvest and days to maturity in three type of sowing. In general 12 November sole sowing produced significantly higher pod yield and fodder yield but it was statistically non-significant for seed yield. However there was significant interaction of type of sowing with genotypes. BARI Garden pea-1 produced significantly higher pod yield in both sole sowing (10.7 t/ha in 01 Nov. & 17.0 t/ha in 12 November) followed by IPSA-3 while in relay sowing the highest yield was recorded in IPSA-3 (6.5 t/h). But in 2013-14, IPSA-3 was severely damaged by foot rot while BARI Garden pea-3 completely failed to germinate in relay sowing under excess moist condition but Natore local-2 performed good even in that situation. For fodder yields Natore local-2 produced the highest mean yield (12.2 t/ha) and Natore local-1 (11.2 t/ha) followed by Bagha local (10.11 ton/ha) and BARI Garden pea-1(10.33 ton/ha). In case of seed yield again IPSA-3 gave the highest seed yield of 2.65 t/ha and BARI Garden pea-1 (2.34 t/ha) followed by Natore local-2 (2.14 ton/ha) and Jhikorgacha local (2.11 ton/ha).

Program Area: Variety and Species

Non-commodity: Pea

Objectives:

To evaluate the existing cultivars/varieties of pea under relay cropping condition with Aman rice to select appropriate variety in the above cropping pattern.

Methodology:

Ten genotypes evaluated as germplasm evaluation trial in 2013-14 at farmers fields in Natore district were sown further in three different environments (relay sowing at optimum time as a relay crop, sole sowing at optimum time as a relay crop and sole sowing at optimum time as a sole crop) at Pulses Research Centre, Ishurdi, Pabna, Bangladesh during Rabi 2014-15 to identify suitable genotypes for relay cropping as well as for sole cropping. Ten genotypes are Natore Local-1, Jhikorgacha Local, IPSA-3, Bagha local, BARI Garden pea-1, BD-4190, BD-4142, BD- 4181, BARI Garden pea-3 and Natore Local-2. The genotypes were sown on 01 November for relay as well as sole cropping and again as sole cropping at the optimum time (12^th November) after proper land preparation. The experiment was done in a RCB split-plot design with three replications. Each entry was sown in a plot of 8 rows x 4 m length plot with line to line spacing of 35 cm and plant to plant 7 cm. Post sowing irrigation was given to ensure seed germination in sole condition while relay sowing was done under optimum soil moisture condition. Recommended fertilizers were used at the rate of 40, 100, 40 and 50 kg Urea, TSP, MOP and gypsum, respectively. Necessary intercultural operations were done as and when necessary. Selection emphasis was given on short duration and disease reaction (Powdery mildew and Rust) to fit them in between Aman and Boro rice. Some were also selected for their high yield and disease reaction so that they can be grown as relay crop or sole crop. The screening of rust and powdery mildew diseases were done just in natural environment. At maturity best individual lines were selected on the basis of earliness, disease reaction, insect susceptibility (against pod borer) and higher yield. The traits were included days to maturity, plant height, branches/plant, pods/plant, populations/m², fodder yield (ton/ha), pod yield (ton/ha) in different dates, seed yield (ton/ha) and 100 SW (gm). The yield data was taken from 2 m² area in a plot while the yield contributing traits were recorded from five randomly selected plants. Percent of foot rot was counted from 2 m² area and powdery mildew disease score (0-5 scale) was recorded from the whole plot. The statistical analysis was done using Genstate 5 computer software.

Achievement/Findings:

From this evaluation, optimum sole sowing in 12^th November is best for extracting higher yield irrespective of genotypes while IPSA-3 can be selected for any type of sowing under favorable condition. But based on pod shape, size and consumer preference as well as stress tolerance, Natore local-2 may be selected for relay sowing. BARI Garden pea-3 is not suitable for relay cropping, it may be recommended for growing as a sole crop between Aman and Boro rice and early pod harvesting. There is no noticeable competition for water, light and air competition is the most limiting factor and should be focused on future studies.
