Chickpea Maturity Groups

Cicer arietinum L.

Classification of chickpea varieties based on the length of the growing season, determined by the number of days from emergence to full maturity.

In the reference 46 varieties crop Chickpea, where this is mentioned in the description.

The length of the growing season for chickpea varieties varies from 80 to 120 days. To assess maturity, the cumulative effective temperature index is also used, ranging from 1800 to 2000 °C for this crop. The division into early-maturing, mid-maturing, and late-maturing groups is determined by breeding companies based on multi-year trials under specific soil and climatic conditions.

Selecting a maturity group is a key agronomic tool for adapting chickpeas to the hydrothermal regime of a region. Early-maturing forms are effective in arid conditions, allowing them to avoid critical moisture deficits and peak temperatures. Varieties with a longer growing season are capable of producing higher yields under favorable moisture conditions, and staggering maturity groups across fields helps optimize the workload for harvesting equipment.
