INTRODUCTION




Pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp) belongs to the family Leguminoseae. It is
a perennial legume shrub and locally called “cadios or cardis”. It is a grain legume of
considerable importance in India and is grown in many other tropical countries from 30o
north to 30o south (Saxena et al., 1983).It is known for its many uses. Pigeon pea pods are
for human consumption, pod husk and leaves for animal fodder, and sticks for firewood
(Rocheleau et al., 1988). Clearly, pigeon pea is a major pulse crop.

In the Philippines, pigeon pea is found in settled areas, being cultivated and semi
cultivated. It is regarded as a “poor man’s crop” and it is used both as food and forage or
cover crop. However, the development of new processed products from pigeon pea may
jumpstart its utilization as an affordable alternative to meat-based protein and as a source
of additional income for small holder farmers and rural households.

As cited by PCARRD (1999) pigeon pea is commonly known as a source of seeds
for food and it is popular in Northern Luzon as an essential ingredient in “pinakbet”. Its
seeds contain 20% to 25% protein, rich in carbohydrates and minerals (Saxena et al.,
1983). However, cultivation is limited to home gardens, backyards or hilly areas
(PCARRD, 1999).

According to some studies, the principal constraint in growing pigeon pea as a
major crop is low yield (Saxena et al., 1983). Recently developed extra-short duration
cultivars are relatively less sensitive to photoperiod which enables their cultivation up to
45o north latitude (ICRISAT, 2008).

Dar (2008) cited that in this time of threatened food security, particularly at this
time of rice shortage, harnessing the potentials of dry land areas is most appropriate. To

mitigate this problem, the source of carbohydrates and protein in our diet should be
diversified. Root crops which could provide additional carbohydrates and legumes like
pigeon pea which is rich in protein could be grown in many parts of the country. In this
case, it is needed to reinvigorate the legumes industry in the Philippines through large
scale production of suitable and high yielding pigeon pea lines to improve productivity
and income of the farmers. However, local growers cannot exactly identify a variety
which gives high quality seed yield and give good profit to farmers. It is therefore,
important to evaluate some of the available varieties of the crop that could suit the
conditions in a certain locality.

Some farmers in Taloy Sur, Tuba, Benguet are planting pigeon pea in their farms
especially in “kaingin” farms. However, this is not for commercial purposes but for food.
In view of this situation, it is very challenging to undertake this study to evaluate
different pigeon pea lines to promote this crop in the locality in order that the farmers will
plant pigeon pea not only for food but also for income.

The study was conducted to determine the growth and yield of different pigeon
pea lines and to select the best pigeon pea line suited at Taloy Sur, Tuba, Benguet
condition.

The study was conducted at Taloy Sur, Tuba, Benguet from October 2008 to May
2009.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE


Soil and Water Requirement

The crop can be grown on a wide range of soil type from lighter loams to the
heavy clay with soil pH range from 5.0 to 7.0 and is sensitive to salinity. Above 29oC,
soil moisture and fertility need to be adequate. Pigeon pea has an optimum rainfall
ranging from 600 to 1000 mm per year and water logging is harmful (CGPRT, 1990).

Climatic Requirements
Pigeon pea is very heat tolerant and prefers hot moist conditions. This crop
thrives in an area with a temperature ranges from 18oC to 30oC but can grow at
temperature above 35oC under adequate soil moisture and fertility (CGPRT, 1990).
Pigeon pea can grow between latitudes 30o south and 30o north at elevations ranging from
sea level to 2000 meters and it is mainly grown in developing countries in areas prone to
growth on degraded soils (ICRISAT, 2008)
According to PAGASA Baguio as cited by Carbonel (2008) the elevation of
Taloy Sur, Tuba is 600 meters above sea level with temperature ranging from 18oC to
30oC and having a relative humidity of 54-71%.

Varietal Evaluation

To determine the high yielding varieties, varietals evaluation is important because
varieties had different potentials (Shresta, 1989).

Bautista and Mabesa (1977) suggested that variety to be selected should be high
yielding, resistant to pest and disease, early maturing and there traits could make possible
the growing of the crop less expensive and more production. In addition, Cagampang and

Lantican (1977) observed that the choice of variety is important. They further suggested
that many instance, the wise use of improved variety has resulted to tremendous increase
in yield. Rasco and Amante (1994) reported that farmers already accept new improved
variety because it fits in their traditional variety, but it may stop growing if the consumers
are not willing to buy it.

Sugui, Rasalan, and Tadena of MMSU did an evaluation on field performance of
eight pigeon pea lines at Ilocos Norte from 1996 to 1997 (PCARRD, 1999). Differences
were observed in terms of seed yield per hectare, width of seeds, pod length, days to
flowering and days to maturity. It was observed that ICPL 87 a locally grown variety was
the earliest to flower and to mature than the other pigeon pea varieties evaluated.
A
characterization
and
evaluation on pigeon pea accessions at Datakan,
Kapangan, Benguet was done by Tonged (2008). Significant differences were observed
on the morphological characters of the eight pigeon pea accessions. It was observed that
the different pigeon pea accessions differed in the number of days to flowering, pod
setting, seed weight and yield, raceme number and initial and final plant height.
“Seng-ewan” a locally grown variety was observed to be the best performing
accession in terms of growth and yield performance among the eight pigeon pea
accessions that were characterized and evaluated.

Fertilization

Fertilizers are not applied to pigeon pea in traditional systems, perhaps due to the
wrong belief that it does not respond to fertilizers. Fertilizers are usually applied to
pigeon pea at sowing. Pigeon pea seedlings depend on soil-nitrogen in its early stages. So
pigeon peas do respond to a “starter dose” of 15 to 20 kg N/ha. Phosphorus is the most
Adaptability Trial of Pigeon Pea Lines under
Taloy Sur, Tuba, Benguet Condition / Jacob L. Balangay. 2010

frequently limiting nutrient and application of 17 to 26 kg P/ha gave higher yield than no
application. Placement of P fertilizer at a depth of 10 to 15 cm increase in yield by 35%
over broadcast application.

Insects and Diseases

In the characterization and evaluation of pigeon pea accessions at Datakan,
Kapangan, Benguet by Tonged (2008), legume pod borer and bean rust was the common
pest and diseases observed. Legume pod borer was noted to be mild resistant to some
pigeon pea accessions and bean rust was recorded susceptible and moderately resistant.

Postharvest Practices

After harvest, mature pods are threshed usually by hand as practice by small
growing farmers. In large producing areas, threshing is usually done by animals or
machines. Processing includes dhal making, either wet or dry by milling (CGPRT, 1990).
Dhal is a thick Indian stew made from pulses, onions and spices.

MATERIALS AND METHODS


An area of 210 square meters was properly prepared and divided into 21 plots,
each plot measuring 1m x 10m. The experiment was laid out using randomized complete
block design (RCBD) with three replications.

The seeds were sown in a single row plot following a distance of 1m x 1m
between plants at 3 seeds per hill.
Treatment

The pigeon pea lines used in the study were the following:

To ensure good growth and yield, cultural management practices such as
irrigation, weeding, side dressing, hilling-up and insect and disease control were strictly
observed. Compost was applied at the rate of three tons per hectare before planting.
Irrigation was done two times a week from planting until the vegetative stage and
also the weeds were removed during vegetative stage because they were competitive on
the nutrients taken by the plants. No control measures were done on diseases because the
plants were resistant to rust while cutworms were removed manually.

RESULTS AND DISCUSION

Agroclimatic Data

Table 1 shows the temperature, relative humidity and rainfall during the conduct
of the study. Temperature ranged from 25.5oC to 27oC. Highest temperature was recorded
in March (27oC) and the lowest was on April and November (25.5oC). On relative
humidity, April has the highest at 90% and the lowest was on the month of December
with 82% relative humidity. The highest amount of rainfall was recorded also on the
month of May and April and the lowest was on the month of January. High amount of
rainfall makes the plants robust and have good flowering performance.

The temperature during the conduct of the study is favorable for growing pigeon
pea since the plants can thrive in areas where temperature ranges from 18 to 30oC
(CGPRT, 1990).

Plant height at 35 DAP and at Flowering

Table 2 shows the height of the plants at 35 DAP and at flowering. Among the
different pigeon pea lines, “Seng-ewan” and “Taloy 1” significantly had the tallest plants
at 35 DAP (10.06 cm and 9.99 cm, respectively). ICPL 87034 produced the shortest
plants at 6.99 cm. On the plant height at flowering, the local pigeon pea line from
Kapangan (Seng-ewan) were the tallest plants at flowering (134.35 cm) while “Taloy 1”
turned to be one of the shortest (57.46 cm) together with ICPL 87034 (58.60 cm).

12
The differences in plant height at flowering of the plants could be attributed to the
varietal characteristics of the lines and their adaptability to the locality.

Number of Days from Planting to Flowering

Among the seven pigeon pea lines observed, ICPL 87034 was the earliest to bear
flowers at 92 days after planting while “Seng-ewan” and ICPL 87119-8 were observed to
be the latest to bear flowers (Table 3).
The differences on the number of days from planting to flowering of the
accessions could be attributed to their varietal characteristics.

Number of Days from Planting to Pod Setting
The pods of “Seng-ewan”, “Taloy 1” and ICPL 7035-9 became visible in four
days from flowering while the rest of the lines took only three days to produce pods
(Table 3).

Number of Flower Cluster per Plant

Highly significant differences were observed among the pigeon pea lines on the
number of flower cluster per plant. “Seng-ewan” was observed to have the highest
number of flower cluster (108) while “Taloy 1” had the lowest (21). The differences on
the number of flower cluster were due to the growth performance of the plants. More
flower cluster per plant produced would potentially mean more pods and high yield.

Number of Flower per Cluster

As shown in Table 4, the two local lines “Taloy 1” and “Seng-ewan” produced
the highest number of flowers per cluster followed by ICPL 7035-9 which produced 10
flowers per cluster.

The other lines were also comparable to each other with a mean ranging from 8 to
9 flowers per cluster. Differences on the number of flower per cluster could be attributed
to the varietal characteristics and on the adaptability of the lines in the place of study.

Length of Pods

Highly significant differences were observed among the pigeon pea lines on the
length of pods as presented in Table 5. ICPL 7035-9 significantly had the longest pod
(8.04 cm), followed by “Taloy 1” and “Seng-ewan” (7.53 and 7.39 cm, respectively).
ICPL 87119-8 produced the shortest pod (5.28 cm) but comparable to ICPL 8863-10
(5.43 cm). Figure 1 presents the pods of four pigeon pea lines.

Number of Seed Zone

Highly significant differences were observed on the number of seed zones of
seven pigeon pea lines (Table 6). “Taloy 1” significantly had the highest number of seed
zones with mean of 5.33 followed by ICPL 7035-9 and “Seng-ewan” with means of 4.63
and 4.50, respectively. Having high number of seed zones would potentially mean more
seeds and higher weight of pods.

Reaction to Bean Rust

As shown in Table 7, “Taloy 1”, “Seng-ewan”, ICPL 88039, ICPL 7035-9 and
ICPL 87119-8 had high resistance to bean rust at 90 DAP and 120 DAP. ICPL 87034 and
ICPL 8863-10 exhibited mild resistance at 90 DAP and became moderately resistant at
120 DAP.

Reaction to Pod Borer

“Taloy 1” was observed to be moderately resistant to pod borer while ICPL

Fresh Seed yield


As shown in Table 7, ICPL 7035-9 produced the heaviest fresh seed yield at

141.67g. “Taloy1” produced the lowest fresh seed yield having a weight of 49.67g. The
differences on the fresh seed yield of the plants could be attributed to the growth
performances of the plant like short height, number of flowers, size of the seeds (Figure
2), and number of seeds per pod of the plants. Low fresh seed yield could also be
attributed to the shedding of flowers that resulted to small number of pods developed. No
seeds were harvested from “Seng-ewan”, ICPL 87119-8 and ICPL 8863-10 because the
plants were destroyed by typhoon “Emong” during pod and seed development.

Dry Seed Yield

Highly significant differences were observed on the dry seed yield of the seven
pigeon pea lines. ICPL 7035-9 significantly had the highest dry seed yield with a mean
weight of 34.50g. “Taloy 1” had the lowest dry seed yield (21.47 g). Low dry seed yield
could be attributed to the size of the seeds, resistance to pod borer and the weather
condition during production.

Weight of 100 Seeds

Highly significant differences were observed on the weight of 100 seeds. “Taloy
1” significantly produced the heaviest 100 dry seed weight of 13.07g but comparable to
ICPL 7035-9 (13.00g). The weight of 100 seeds from ICPL 87034 and ICPL 88039 are
also comparable to each other. The other lines were not able to produce dry seeds because
the plants were destroyed by typhoon “Emong”. Bad weather condition can obviously
lead to some experimental failure.

The return on cash expenses of seven pigeon pea lines is shown in Table 8. ICPL
7035-9 have the highest ROCE of 86.35% followed by ICPL 87034 and ICPL 88039. On
the other hand, “Taloy 1” had the lowest ROCE of -34.38%. Low gross sale and yield in
“Taloy 1” resulted to negative ROCE. ”Seng-ewan”, ICPL 87119-8 and ICPL 8863-10
have zero ROCE since they did not have seed yield. It appears that the moderate
resistance of the different lines to pod borer reduced seed yield resulting to low ROCE.

SUMMARY, CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION

Summary

The study was conducted at Taloy Sur, Tuba, Benguet from October 2008 to May
2009 to determine the growth and yield of different pigeon pea lines and to select the best
line suited at Taloy Sur, Tuba, Benguet condition.
During the conduct of the study, temperature ranged from 25.5 to 27oC which was
favorable for growing pigeon pea.

Highly significant differences were observed among the lines in terms of plant
height at 35 DAP and at flowering, weight of 100 seeds and dry and fresh seed yield. The
two local lines produced the tallest plants at 35 DAP. However, because “Seng-ewan” is
the latest to bear flowers at 147 days, it produced the tallest plants at flowering. “Taloy 1”
was the shortest plant but comparable to ICPL 87034 and ICPL 7035-9. ICPL 87034 and
ICPL 7035-9 were the earliest to bear flowers at more than 92 days.

Only four pigeon pea lines have produced dry and fresh seed yield. These are
ICPL 7035-9, ICPL 87034, ICPL 88039 and “Taloy 1”. On the other hand, “Seng-ewan”,
ICPL 87119-8 and ICPL 8863-10 were not able to produce yield due to the typhoon that
occurred during pod and seed development. ICPL 7035-9 produced high dry and fresh
seed yield as well as ROCE followed by ICPL 87034 and ICPL 88039. On the other
hand, “Taloy 1” produced the lowest dry and fresh seed yield as well as ROCE.

In terms of the reaction to pests and diseases, pigeon pea lines “Seng-ewan”,
“Taloy 1”, ICPL 88039, ICPL 7035-9 and ICPL 87119-8 had high resistance to bean rust
at 90 to 120 DAP while the rest exhibited mild resistance at 90 DAP and became
moderately resistant at 120 DAP. However, “Taloy 1” was observed to be moderately

21
resistant to pod borer at 120 DAP while ICPL 7035-9, ICPL 87034 and ICPL 88039 had
mild resistance against the same pest.

Conclusion

Based on the results, ICPL 7035-9 is the best performing line in terms of yield,
resistant to pest, and ROCE. Thus ICPL 7035-9 is suited at Taloy Sur, Tuba, Benguet.

Recommendation

Short duration pigeon pea lines like ICPL 7035-9 could be recommended to
farmers at Taloy Sur, Tuba but for more yield and profit the plants should be planted as
early as July or August.

“Seng-ewan” could be a potential alternative if no strong typhoon occurs in the
area during pod-filling stage.
