Chickpea or chana is a very important pulse crop that grows as a seed of a plant named Cicer arietinum in the Leguminosae family. Chickpea is a highly nutritious pulse and places third in the importance list of the food legumes that are cultivated throughout the world. It contains 25% proteins, which is the maximum provided by any pulse and 60% carbohydrates. Madhya Pradesh produces the major share of around 40% in the Indian production of around 6 million tons. Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan follow Madhya Pradesh contributing to 16% and 14% of production respectively. Chickpea, to compare the production potential of six desi chickpea genotypes, (JG 16, JG 315, PhuleG 405, JG 36, NBeG 452 and RVG 203) at Row spacing 30 cm and 45 cm. The experiment was laid out in randomized block Design with three replication and 5.0m x 3.6 m plot size. Chickpea (desi and kabuli) is an important pulse crop of India and research work has been conducted on different aspect at various places in the country. In present study found that seeds per pod were significantly superior in PhuleG 405 (1.68) than other genotypes except RVG 203. Plant dry weight (g) was recorded under the variety JG 315 (1.38, 5.43, 8.56 and 11.56 g) at all the growth stages of crop viz., 30, 60, 90 DAS and at maturity respectively.
