Abstract

With the objetive of proving the effects of mechanical screeing over the chikpea yield, four classes of seed (local Sauco population) were determined considering their size. Yield of all them were tested against the original popu'ation. It was stablished that mechanical screening for big sized seed, is an adequate practice improve the quality in what is concerned to uniformity and size, not having any effect on yield and genetical crops aspects. Field trials were done at "Los Chañaritos", Cruz del Eje, Prov. de Cordoba.
