1 NFSM PROJECT Name of the project:Identification of salt tolerant chickpea varieties for coastal regions of Gujarat Sanction No. & Date:CPS No. 18-21/2014-NFSM dated 21-08-2014 Principle investigator:Dr. P. B. Patel Associate Research Scientist Soil and Water Management Research Unit Navsari Agricultural University Navsari (Gujarat)  Chickpea is an important rabi pulse crop in Gujarat which occupies 2.4 lakhs ha area with productivity of 1150 kg/ha.  In Gujarat, the area under salt affected soils is about 1.2 lakhs ha. Considerable area under salt affected soils and relatively salt tolerant nature of chickpea crop provide good opportunity for increasing area under this crop in general and in paddy growing area in particular.

2 Objectives :  Identification of salt tolerant high yielding chickpea varieties /hybrids.  Standardize agro-techniques for higher yield of chickpea under salt affected soils.  Demonstrate improved agrotechnique along with salt tolerant variety of chickpea on farmers ’ fields. Work Plan (First Year)(2014-15)  Organize a meeting to develop detailed work plans and methodology for recording observations and format for reporting.  Collection of germplasm from Gujarat and other states of India.  Screening of chickpea varieties /germplasm for salt tolerance.  Development of suitable agrotechniques for new varieties of chickpea.  Preparation and submission of Annual Report.
