| description |
Differences in seed maturity during harvest have been a
conmon problem in groundnut. The present study was conducted
to look into different factors in order to obtain viable
information that could define optimum harvest for Mat jam
groundnut. These characters include: (a) percentage of nature
pods per 100 pads, (b) weight of kernels per plant, (c) oil,
protein, and carbohydrate contents, (d) keeping quality, and
(e) germination rate.
The groundnut was grown in the field in 1986 and 1987 and
harvested at 17 different harvest dates from 68 days after
planting (DAP) to 100 DAP.
The percentage of mature pods per 100 pods in both years
was about 65.6% at 88 DAP. Later harvests did not show
significant increase in percentage of mature pods. Highest
kernel weight of 8.18 g/plant was obtained at 100 DAP but was
not significantly different from the 92 and 96 DAP with 7.78
am 6.55 g/plant, respectively. The number of nodes on the
main axis between 88-96 DAP ranged from 26 to 28. This plant
character was easy to identify and to count because even when
the leaves had fallen, the scars could still be seen. |
