From our crop reference

Chickpea (Gram) is a pulse crop, grown in the rabi season. Sow it in Oct–Nov and expect to harvest in 95–120 days. It wants a pH of 6.0–8.0 (close to neutral) and 15–25°C. Plant at 30 × 10 cm, allowing 75–100 kg of seed per hectare. A good crop returns around 1.5–2.5 t. Watch for pod borer, wilt.
