A field experiment was conducted during Rabi, 2016-17 on black soils to find the influence of dates of sowing and irrigation levels on chickpea heat use efficiency and heat units required to reach different phenophases. The chickpea crop required 82 to 97°C days at emergence, whereas to enter the reproductive stage (first flower) crop required 794 to 1073°C days. The growing degree days required by chickpea to reach maturity ranged from 2066 to 2200°C days. The phenophases, emergence, and end pod were not influenced by irrigation levels. Irrigation levels influenced growing degree days at physiological maturity and harvest. Delay in sowing led to a decrease in heat use efficiency.
