Innovation Title | Chickpea inbred variety ICCV 97105 for cultivation in mid-altitudes in Malawi, Kenya, and Tanzania |
Innovation description | ICCV 97105 is a medium duration desi variety adapted across the medium and high-altitude semi arid environments. This variety is relatively less susceptible to pod sucking bugs and to pod borers, and has tolerance to leaf diseases and wilt. It flowers in 35-44 days and matures in 125-142 days, with yield potential of 2.6 mt/ha. This variety will potentially contribute to SDG Goals 1,2 and 3. |
