- Intervention effect In 1983/84, irrigation raised winter-sown ILC3279 yield by 105% over a crop receiving 229 mm precipitation.
- Intervention effect In 1984/85, winter sowing raised ILC3279 yield by 65% over spring sowing.
- Intervention effect In 1984/85, irrigation raised spring-sown ILC3279 seed yield by 143% over crops receiving 373 mm rainfall.
- Observation In 1985/86, six chickpea cultivars differed negligibly in irrigation response.
- Intervention effect In 1985/86, advancing sowing from spring to winter raised average seed yield by 66%.
- Intervention effect In 1985/86, irrigation raised winter-sown chickpea seed yield by 56% over crops receiving 316 mm annual precipitation.
- Intervention effect In 1985/86, irrigation raised spring-sown chickpea seed yield by 72% over crops receiving 316 mm annual precipitation.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that irrigation can increase chickpea productivity and yield stability in northern Syria, conditional on seasonal rainfall amount and distribution.
