Response of Groundnut (Arachishypogea L.) to Varying IntoRow Spacing and Variety in Bagauda, a Sudan Savannah AgroEcological Zone of Nigeria.

Abstract

The trial “Response of Groundnut (Arachis hypogea L.) tovarying intra-row spacing and variety at Bagauda, a Sudan savannah Agro-ecological Nigeria.) Was conducted at Bagauda (former ICRISAT Research station) (11° 39N, 08° 20E) during the 2012 wet season to determine the suitable variety and optimum intra-row spacing for groundnut (Arachis hypogea L) in the area. The treatments were combined and arranged in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) and was replicated 3 times. It consisted of five (5) varieties (SAMNUT 10, SAMNUT 22, SAMNUT 23, SAMNUT 24 and Mai Bargo, a local variety used as check) and three level of spacing (20cm, 25cm, 30cm). It was observed that variety and intra-row spacing significantly affects most of the studied characters. SAMNUT 22 out-yielded the other varieties while 30cm intra--row spacing produced the highest yield.
