“…Higher pod dry weight, shelling percentage and 100 kernel weight in early sowing dates resulted in higher pod yields. Similar effects of sowing dates of groundnut in different seasons were reported by Ahmed (1992), Baliarsingh and Mahapatra (2015) and Meena et al (2015). Crop sown on 25 February resulted in the highest oil yield (1.88 t/ha), being 11.8 and 23.6% (significantly) higher than 25 March and 10 April sowings respectively.…”

A field experiment was conducted during the spring-summer seasons of 2018 and 2019 at Ludhiana, Punjab, to study the performance of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) cultivars under different sowing dates. The experiment was laid out in 3 replications in a split-plot design with 4 sowing dates (25 February, 10 March, 25 March and 10 April) in main plots and 4 cultivars, viz. SG 99, TG 37A, TAG 24 and J 87 in subplots. The crop sown on 25 February took 6, 10 and 12 days more for emergence (17 days) and 11, 20 and 25 days more for maturity (133 days) than that sown on 10 March, 25 March and 10 April sowing dates, respectively. The highest pod yield (5.61 t/ ha) was obtained from 10 March and oil yield (1.88 t/ha) from 25 February sowing date, whereas 10 April sowing resulted in the lowest pod yield (4.78 t/ha) and oil yield (1.43 t/ha). Gross returns, net returns and benefit: cost (B : C) ratio were the highest from 10 March-sown crop. Effect of sowing dates on yield attributes was variable. Cultivar J 87 gave the highest pod yield (5.78 t/ha), oil yield (1.96 t/ha), haulm yield (8.51 t/ha), resulting in higher gross returns and net returns than the other cultivars. TG 37A gave higher pod yield than SG 99 and TAG 24 and the highest B : C ratio. Cultivar J 87 sown on 25 February gave significantly higher pod yield (6.73 t/ha) and oil yield (2.71 t/ha) than the other sowing dates. The highest pod and oil yields were recorded by SG 99 when sown on 25 February; by TG 37A when sown on 25 March and by TAG 24 when sown on 10 March sowing date.

Regular large-scale application of fertilizers, pesticides, and mulching can lead to soil health degradation and increase negative environmental impacts, contributing significantly to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Considering these factors by applying biochar and biofertilizer (rhizobium inoculants) in groundnut production, a novel experiment was conducted for increasing soil fertility, groundnut productivity, and soil carbon stock in Bangladesh's Charland agroecosystems. The two-year experiment involved seven treatments consisting of T1 (control), T2 (soil test based (STB) fertilizer dose following fertilizer recommendation guide (FRG) 2018), T3 ((T2 minus nitrogen fertilizer) + biofertilizer), T4 (T3 + biochar), T5 (T2 + biochar), T6 (only biofertilizer), and T7 (only biochar). The result showed that the T4 treatment had the highest nodule counts (78.17 plant−1), nodule weights (122.97 mg plant−1), root weight (1.47 g plant−1) and nut yields (2.30 t ha−1), all of which were statistically identical compared to the other treatments. In addition, the T3 treatment had the highest recorded shoot weight (35.47 g plant−1), whereas the control T1 treatment had the lowest (16.50 g plant−1) shoot weight. Results showed that biochar-based rhizobium inoculants increased nodulation, root weight, shoot weight, nut yield and soil nutrient uptake in plant growth at all four stages (seedling, flowering, pod formation and harvesting). The result revealed that biochar-based rhizobium inoculants modulated the abundance of functional microbes through increased soil nitrification and reduced denitrification compared to the N-use treatments. Moreover, this interactive system significantly improved soil NO3−, leading to an increase in N uptake, thereby promoting plant growth and increasing nut yield. Considering all parameters, the soil amended biochar as a carrier of rhizobium inoculants had the highest soil organic carbon (SOC) stock (1.76 t ha−1), about 26% higher than other treatments, which saved a considerable amount of 6.6 kg CO2eq ha−1 GHG emissions and aided in promoting environmental sustainability towards climate-smart agriculture.

This study was conducted to determine the effects of single and twin planting patterns on yield and important agronomic characteristics of main cropped peanut at the experimental area of Dicle University, Diyarbakir-Turkey in 2014. Peanut cultivar Halisbey was used as a plant material. The study was established in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Four single row spacing (60 cm, 70 cm, 80cm and 90 cm) and four twin row spacing (60x25x60 cm, 70x25x70 cm, 80x25x80 cm and 90x25x90 cm) were applied with an intra row spacing of 20 cm. In this study, pod yield (kg da-1), number of pods per plant, 100 seed weight (g), 100 pod weight (g), I. and II. quality pod rate (%), waste pod rate (%) and oil rate (%) were analyzed. According to the results, the highest pod yield was obtained from 60x25x60 cm (601.83 kg da-1) application and the highest number of pods per plant were obtained from 80 cm (48.68) application. It was observed that when the density of the plants reduces, the number of pods per plant increases and when number and density of plants increases, pod yield increases. It is better to recommend or prefer the double-row sowing methods (especially 60x25x60 cm) for the highest pod yield of peanut.
