e0“The greatest reduction in grain yield occurred when the plants were defoliated during the early podding stage, the percentage reduction being 59.7, 79.0, 86.4 and 95.3 in groundnut, cowpeas, soyabeans and green gram respectively when completely defoliated at this stage and 43.3, 14.0, 42.4 and 46.1 respectively when only half defoliated.”
t0“groundnut (Arachis hypogea), cowpeas (Vigna unguiculata), soyabean (Glycine max) and green gram (Vigna aurens)”
