“…Ray et al, (2015) recommended 150 kg/ha lime with 4g/kg of molybdenum and 75% of recommended dose (@ 20:60:40 of NPK for nutrient management practice of pigeon pea under rainfed conditions in Alfisols. Aher et al, (2015) reported that quality protein content (20.52 %) was improved significantly by the application of higher levels of phosphorus @ 100 kg P 2 O 5 /ha. ZnSO 4 @ 15 kg/ha along with RDF exhibited higher yield attributes and grain yield of pigeon pea however, it was statistically similar with RDF+ZnSO 4 25 kg/ha (Rathod et al, 2016).…”

According to Indian Institute of Pulses Research Vision document, India’s population is expected to touch 1.68 billion by 2030 and the pulse requirement for the year 2030 is projected at 32 million tonnes with anticipated required annual growth rate of 4.2%. Pigeon pea is an important legume crop cultivated across several countries throughout the tropics and subtropics. They are cultivated in India, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Caribbean, East and West Africa. Commonly known as ‘Arhar’ in Northern India, this protein rich pulse crop has growing demand in Asia. Among the pulses pigeon pea is the second most important kharif grain legume after chickpea in India and grown predominantly under rainfed conditions. The kernels are nutritionally rich containing 20-22% protein. Its cultivation would be able to provide 40-60 kg N/ha to the subsequently grown crop. The leaves and immature stems can be used as a green manure. Fallen leaves can also be used as mulch and thus help to enhance the water holding capacity of soil. Its beneficial effect as an intercrop has also been reported. Sometimes ground dry peas are mixed with wheat flour just to improve the flour quality and its protein content. Additionally, pigeon pea shares a vital part in India’s pulse import and export. Keeping all these in view the present review depicts the various aspects of pigeon pea cultivation and its status in Indian trade on pulse.

“…Working on pigeon pea Zadode et al (2014) observed that application of 25:50:20:20 kg NPKS/ha significantly improved the N, P, K and S uptake by crop which was superior over 12.5:25:10:10 kg NPKS/ha. Aher et al (2015) reported that quality protein content (20.52 %) was improved significantly by the application of higher levels of phosphorus @ 100 kg P 2 O 5 /ha which was at par with 50 and 75 kg P 2 O 5 /ha than 25 kg P 2 O 5 /ha. Sahay et al (2015) observed that N, P, K content in grain and stalk were improve significantly with the fertilized plot of 100% RDF + 5 t FYM + Rhizobium + PSB and this treatment was on par with 50% RDF + 5 t FYM + Rhizobium + PSB in respect to above parameters.…”

“…Similarly in regard to stover yield did not shown significant difference. Aher et al (2015) conducted a field study on pigeon pea and reported that yield attributes viz., number of pods/ plant, weight of pods and weight of seeds/plant and yields (seed, stover and biological yield) were increased due to application of 100 kg P 2 O 5 /ha but it was at par with 50 and 75 kg P 2 O 5 /ha and significantly higher than 25 kg P 2 O 5 /ha. From Varanasi (UP) Sahay et al (2015) reported that no.…”

India is the largest producer and consumer of pulses in the world accounting for about 29 per cent of the world area and 19 per cent of the world’s production. In order to achieve self-sufficiency in pulses, the projected requirement by the year 2025 is estimated at 27.5 MT. To meet this requirement, the productivity needs to be enhanced to 1000 kg/ha, and an additional area of about 3-4 Mha has to be brought under pulses besides reducing post-harvest losses. This uphill task has to be accomplished under more severe production constraints, especially abiotic stresses, abrupt climatic changes, emergence of new species/ strains of insect-pests and diseases, and in-creasing deficiency of secondary and micronutrients in the soil. This requires a two-pronged proactive strategy, i.e. improving per unit productivity and reducing cost of production. The yield levels of pulses have remained low and stagnant, also area and total production. Among the pulses pigeon pea is second most important grain-legumes and major constraints in pigeon pea production is mostly grown in grown on marginal lands under rainfed agriculture and without nutrient management, hence are prone to abiotic stresses. Therefore, it is essential for higher production and productivity of pigeon pea, use of high yielding varieties which suitable for intercrop as well as sole cropping system with best nutrient management practices.
