Effect of different fertilizer forms on yield and yield components of chickpea varieties
Abstract
This research was conducted to determine the effects of different fertilizer forms (control, diammonium phosphate, urea, phosphorus and bacteria) on yield and yield components of some chickpea varieties (Gokce, Diyar 95, Aziziye 94 and Taek-Sagel) in Diyarbakir, Turkey, during 2018 and 2019 growing seasons. In the study, plant height, plant biomass, pod weight, seed yield per plant, number of pods and number of seeds per pod, biological yield, grain yield, 100-seed weight and harvest index were evaluated. The effect of fertilizer treatments on chickpea varieties for all traits were significant, except 100-seed weight, and harvest index. Grain yield ranged from 1274 kg ha-1 to 1479 kg ha-1 among treatments. The control group (1479 kg ha-1), urea (1478 kg ha-1) and diammonium phosphate (1449 kg ha-1) fertilizer treatments had produced more grain yield than bacteria inoculation (1274 kg ha-1) and phosphorus (1332 kg ha-1) treatments.
