Study of the phenological and productive behavior of Buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench), in the central area of Córdoba, Argentina
Keywords:
buckwheat, phenology, yield, adaptabilityAbstract
Taking up again an experience carried out in the 2011/2012 campaign by Agronomist Dionisi from the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences of the U.N.C., work was done on buckwheat in dry conditions in the centre of Córdoba, with the aim of starting a series of experiences to learn about the phenological and productive development of the crop in our environment. To this end, during the 2018/2019 season, the Mancan variety was evaluated, the only one registered with the National Seed Institute (INASE). In three sowing dates (FS) the average cycle was 73 days, with a vegetative stage of about 3 weeks, with a flowering that lasted between 3 and 4 weeks, and then there was the formation and filling of the grains, which lasted about 4 weeks. At production level, an average yield of 1.20 g plant-1 was obtained, highlighting the extreme FS (both November and February) as those of higher yield, the average number of grains (NG) obtained was 30 grains plant-1, and the weight of a thousand grains (PMG) of 39.98 g. The general results recorded, speak of a good productive behavior of buckwheat, in an environment representative of the central region of Cordoba.
