Abstract

The experiment on evaluation of performance of cowpea genotypes (Vigna unguiculata L.) for growth, yield & quality under Prayagraj agro-climatic condition was conducted at Department of Horticulture, Naini Agricultural Institute, SHUATS, Prayagraj during 2022 in order to standardize the best genotype of Cowpea. Among the all genotype VNRCP-27 (G1) found to be the earliest. The Cowpea genotypes Sheetal (G10) had noticed more yield (556gram) per plant and (17.91 tonnes) per hac. under Prayagraj agro climatic conditions. The above genotype also recorded desirable values for pod parameters like length of pod (86.53 cm), weight of pod (23.07gram), which parameters deciding a better market acceptability. Thus, on the basis of growth characters, flowering behavior, yield characters, pod parameters cowpea genotype Kashi Gouri (G15) and cowpea genotypes Sheetal (G10) were found to be promising. While cowpea genotype VNRCP-27 (G1) found to be the highest T.S.S (5.90) among all genotypes.The highest profit and maximum benefit cost ratio (2.53) was observed in cowpea genotypes Sheetal (G10).
