Abstract

Chickpea is one of the most important legumes as human food over world. Using of humic acid based fertilizers has been increased for the last decade in Turkey. Therefore, a field trial was planned according to randomized blocks design in 2013 with 3 replications under Konya ecological conditions to evaluate effect of humic acid doses (0.0-conrol, 6.0-dose 1, 9.0-dose 2 and 12 kg da-1-dose 3) on yield and yield related important characteristics of chickpea variety "Çağatay" were determined. Following ranges were obtained; 29.56 (dose 3) - 41.44 (dose 2) for pod/plant, 82.09% (control) - 89.66% (dose 3) for fertile pod, 38.33cm (control) - 54.44cm (dose 1) for plant height, 13.67cm (control) - 16.61cm (dose 1) for first pod height, 2.33 (control) - 3.00 (dose 2) for main branch/plant, 183.16 (control) - 245.53 kg da-1 (dose 2) for seed yield and 417.23g (dose 3) - 449.90g (dose 1) for thousand seed weight. Variance analysis showed significance (p<0.01) for pod/plant, plant height and seed yield. In general, present study showed an increasing tendency on the yield related parameters in Çağatay variety by application dose of 6.0 kg da-1 and 9.0 kg da-1 humic acid while increased dose caused to reduce in yield. There is a big demand for following studies still that are based on different varieties and application doses of fertilizers to improvement of yield and yield related parameters.
