Abstract
Yield of southernpeas machine-harvested at the green-mature stage generally have not been sufficient for machine-harvest to be profitable. Using narrow row spacings has been proposed to increase yield per hectare. A study was conducted in 1993 and 1994 to examine the effect of row spacing on yield of machine harvested green-mature southernpeas. `Texas Pinkeye' was planted at row spacings of 53, 89, and 107 cm single drilled (SD), and 107 cm double drilled (DD). Marketable yield from the 53-cm row spacing was greater than from the wider row spacings. The yield response was primarily linear. Marketable yield from the DD 107-cm row spacing did not differ significantly from that of the SD 107-cm row spacing. Marketable yield from the DD 107-cm row spacing was less than that from the 53-cm spacing. The plant population per hectare for the two treatments was the same. In 1993, there was a linear response for percentage of pods mature at harvest. The percentage of mature pods was greatest for the 53-cm row spacing.
