Studies conducted on growth dynamics parameters of summer planted bunch groundnut (Arachis Hypogaea L.) crop using different irrigation scheduling criteria under trickle irrigation have revealed that the crop developed maximum lateral spread and leaf area index when irrigated more frequently. However, the above-ground dry matter production and pod yield per plant for the crop were maximum when first irrigation was given 4 weeks after sowing and subsequent irrigations at CPE 60.
