Summary

Effects are reported of some factors which may influence emergence and establishment of pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.), including seeding depth, seed dressing, seed grading, seeding rate, variety and temperature. The effect of seeding rate was dependent on mean germination percentage in the field, but circumstantial observations on other factors of possible consequence in determining plant stand are also discussed.
