Abstract

TDRG 59 is a medium duration high yielding pigeonpea culture identified at Agricultural Research Station, Tandur, Professor Jayashankar Telangana State Agricultural University, Telangana and was released by Central Variety Release Committee during 2021 in the name of Telangana kandi 3 for southern zone of India. It matures in 165-180 days in kharif and around 125-130 days in Rabi depending on the onset of cool temperatures during winter. The culture is most suitable for deep black soils to medium textured soils under rainfed or limited irrigated conditions owing to its medium duration. The culture recorded an average seed yield of 1708 kg/ha, which was 22.52% high over ICPL 8863 (National check), 27.4% high over CO 8 (Local Check) and 10.5% high over GRG 811 (Zonal check). It is moderately resistant to Fusarium wilt and sterility mosaic disease. The culture recorded lesser pod damage due to pod borers and pod fly when compared to checks.
