Field experiment was conducted at Agricultural Research Station, Kadiri, ANGRAU to study the influence of sowing windows on growth and yield of groundnut genotypes under rainfed conditions during Kharif season of 2011-12, 2012-13 and 2013-14 on sandy loam soil. Four groundnut genotypes viz., Kadiri-4, Kadiri-5, Kadiri-6 and Vemana were evaluated under four sowing windows viz., (D1: onset of monsoon, D2: 7 days after onset of monsoon, D3: 14 days after onset of monsoon, D4: 21 days after onset of monsoon). The experiment was laid out in Split plot Design and replicated thrice. Pooled results over three years of study revealed that among four varieties studied mean pod yield of K-4, K-6 and Vemana are at par compared to K-5. Among different dates of sowing, pod yields were significantly higher with sowing upto first week of August (D1 & D2) and further delay in sowing time significantly reduced the pod yields. Pod yields of all the varieties reduced with delay in sowing time except K-4. Its pod, haulm yield increased with delay in sowing time. This reveals that K-4 seems to be promising for delayed sowings.
