Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during Rabi season in 2011-12 at C.S.A. U A& T, Kanpur on sandy loam soil to study the effect of different sowing times (3rd November and 18 November 2012), spacing (30, 40 and 50 cm) and varieties (KGD-1168, KWR-108, Uday and Avarodhi) on yield and yield attributes of chickpea (Cicerarietinum L). The experiment was laid out in a split-split plot design with three replication. The study found that there were significant differences in yield and yield attributes which was substantially higher in 3rd November date of sowing, yield attributes recorded higher when crop was sown 50 cm apart but grain yield (2241.7 kg/ha) was significantly higher with 40cm row spacing and variety KWR-108 recorded higher yield and yield attributing character. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of different sowing dates, spacing and appropriate variety.
