Abstract: The field experiment was conducted during rabi 2017-2018 at Pulse Research Unit, Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola to study effect of sowing dates and varieties on nutrient uptake and yield of chickpea under late sown condition. The result shown that nutrient uptake and yield were depending on time of sowing. The nutrient uptake patterns showed that the first sowing date plants recorded greater nutrient uptake compared to remaining sowing dates in experiments. Among the varieties RVG 203 recorded the highest nutrient uptake followed by RVG 202.The lowest nutrient uptake was recorded in AKG 70. This study concluded that late sowing will reduce the nutrient uptake, dry matter accumulation and yield irrespective of the varieties. Among the varieties the highest yield was recorded by variety RVG 203 irrespective of the date of sowing. And hence under late sowing conditions the variety RVG 203 is preferred over other varieties.
