“…The days to 50% flowering, pod initiation and maturity taken by the groundnut crop sown at four dates of sowing and three different nitrogen levels on duration of the crop. This result confirm the findings of Bala et al, (2011) [1] who reported that delayed sowing delayed 50% flowering in peanut. During the investigation, the observations of the 50% flowering as influenced by different date of sowing treatments.…”

The groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) crop is subjected to varied climatic conditions and monsoon vagaries on grown under irrigated and rainfed conditions. An experiment was led at Agricultural College and Research Institute, Madurai. Effects on dates of sowing and nitrogen levels influenced on phenology of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea) under climate change. Twelve treatment blends with four dates of sowing (D1: 9 th February, D2: 19 th February, D3:29 th February, and D4:9 th March) and three nitrogen levels on (100% RDN, 75% RDN, 125% RDN) in factorial randomized block deign was recreated thrice. The results revealed that phenological parameters was significantly higher influenced days to 50% flowering, days to pod initiation and days to maturity recorded early sowing in 9 th February and the dose was increased 25% RDN followed by 100% RDN and lowest 75% RDN was observed. It strength be due to well disseminated rainfall received during the cropping period.

“…The canopy width was significantly different (P<0.05) as it decreases with planting date after May planting. This is similar with the findings of Bala et al (2011) who reported decline in the canopy spread of Bambara groundnut when sowing was delayed from mid June and attributed it to in ability of late sown crops to fully harness and utilize available natural resources.…”

The effect of planting date on growth and yield of Bambara groundnut (Vigna subteranea (L) verdc) varieties was carried out in Asaba area of Delta State. It was aimed to determine the most appropriate planting date for the growth and yield of Bambara groundnut in the rainforest zone of Delta State. The design for this experiment was split-plot carried out in a Randomized Complete Block Design. Bambara varieties EXMF1, EXMF4, IITA165, and ENZK2 were used with planting date May -September. The main plot was assigned to variety while the sub -plot was the planting date with three replicates. Plants cultivated in May and June performed better in growth (plant height, canopy width, number of leaves and total leaf area) than those planted in July, August and September. In yield, those plants cultivated in July had the highest yield with the value of 4289kg/ha with variety EXMF4 performing best. The study therefore recommended that variety EXMF4 should be planted by farmers and month of July is the appropriate time for planting Bambara groundnut in the rainforest zone for maximum productivity. Contribution/Originality:This study is one of the very few studies which have investigated on planting date of Bambara groundnut. The paper's primary contribution is finding that month of July is most suitable in planting of Bambara groundnut in the area.
