Project Description

    Chickpea production information has not been developed for Alberta. Information on cultivar performance, inoculation, seeding rates, seeding dates, and fertilizer recommendations has not been available. With new marketing opportunities for chickpeas, coupled with lower cereal and canola prices, producers in southern Alberta in the brown and dark brown soil zones are very interested in this new special crop.
