| Innovation Title | Chickpea inbred variety ICCV 96329 for cultivation in medium to high altitudes India and Malawi |
| Innovation description | ICCV 96329 is a medium duration (flowers in 35 - 44 days and matures in 125 - 142 days) kabuli variety for 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. This high-yielding variety (2.1-2.6 mt/ha) is also known for its grain/pod size and protein content. This variety will potentially contribute to SDG`s 1,2, and 3. |
