- Intervention effect Delaying groundnut sowing until mid-July reduced pod number per plant by 27.3%.
- Intervention effect Delayed sowing to end of June or mid-July reduced pod yield by 44.9% relative to mid-June sowing.
- Intervention effect Delayed sowing to end of June or mid-July reduced seed yield by 45.2% relative to mid-June sowing.
- Intervention effect Delayed sowing to end of June or mid-July reduced haulm yield by 23.5% relative to mid-June sowing.
- Intervention effect Fertilizer rate did not significantly influence number of pods per plant, pod yield or seed yield.
- Observation SAMNUT-23 produced significantly more pods per plant than SAMNUT-22.
- Observation SAMNUT-23 had higher pod, seed and haulm yields than SAMNUT-22.
- Association Treatment factors interacted significantly for most yield attributes.
- Association In most cases variety modulated the response of yield parameters to treatments.
- Intervention effect SAMNUT-23 sown in mid-June significantly out-performed SAMNUT-22.
- Association Early sowing enhanced the positive response of groundnut pod yield to NPK fertilizer application.
