Abstract
Growth and grain yield response of gram (Cicer arietinum L.) cultivar Paidar-91 to different seeding densities (40,50,60,70 and 80 kg ha") and row spacings (30, 45 and 60 cm) were investigated under field conditions. The seed yield and growth characteristics such as plant height, number of branches plant", number of seeds pod", and 1OOO-seedweight were influenced significantly by seeding densities. Maximum seed yield of 2299.56 kg ha" was obtained at seeding density of 70 kg ha", whereas row spacing had no significant effect on plant height, seed yield and yield components. For obtaining higher yield of gram cultivarPaidar-91, it may be sown in 30 cm apart rows using seed rate of 70 kg ha". Key words: growth and yield of gram, row spacing, seeding densities
