The Effect of Seeding Rate on the Growth, Development and Yield Capacity of Lentil Cultivated in Vardenis Province of the Gegharkunik Region

Ամփոփում

The current studies are related to the efficiency of the seeding rate variants determined for the fine seed lentil variety “Armyanskaya 88”. The experiments were carried out in 2017-2018, in conditions of Tsovak community of the Gegharkunik region. In the dry soils of Vardenis province in the Gegharkunik region, the lentil plant ripens in 88-92 days (the first ten days of August) and can be proper precursor for the winter wheat. Based on the mathematical processing data of
the seed yield capacity and the received profit it is recommended to sow the small-seeded lentil with the rate of 2.7 mln viable-seed/ha in the land areas of Vardenis province in the Gegharkunik region and in other zones with similar climatic conditions.
