Introduction Lathyrus (Lathyrus sativus L.), also known as grass pea, chickling pea, khesari dal etc. is an important pulse crop of a great economic significance in India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Nepal and Ethiopia. The genus Lathyrus has 187 species (Alkin et al., 1983) among which only one species Lathyrus sativus L. is widely cultivated as a food crop (Jackson and Yunus 1984). Lathyrus is a multi-purpose grain legume which is cultivated as food, feed and fodder crop which is mainly grown in residual moisture. Lathyrus can be cultivated in adverse weather conditions such as drought, excessive rainfall (Negere et al., 1994), poor quality of soil etc. (Palmer et al., 1989; Kaul et al., 1986; Rathod, 1989). Being a pulse crop, this crop has very deep tap root system and is able to fix a good amount of atmospheric nitrogen (Campbell et al., 1994). ........ Study on the Interactions Between Lathyrus (Lathyrus sativus L.) and Agro-climatic Factors to Generate Weather Based Yield Forecasting Models Argha Ghosh* and Safiuddin Ahmed Khan Dept. of Agricultural Meteorology and Physics, Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya, Mohanpur, West Bengal (741 252), India Agro-climatic factors, Lathyrus, pre-harvest forecasting, regression, yield. Keywords: A field experiment was conducted with Lathyrus sativus L. sown on nine different dates at weekly interval to study the effect of weather parameters on yield and to develop regression equations involving agro-climatic factors to predict the yield. The experiment was carried out in rabi seasons in 2016-2017 in Instructional Farm, Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya, West Bengal, India. Simple correlation study between yield and weather parameters was conducted. Yield forecasting models were developed by stepwise regression technique. Highest biomass (4799.5 kg ha-1) was produced by the crops sown on 16th November while biomass yield was the lowest (2524.0 kg ha-1) in the crops sown on 21st December. Mean relative humidity during vegetative phase was positively correlated with grain yield (0.84*). On the contrary grain yield was negatively influenced by vapour pressure deficit at morning (-0.68*) and at afternoon (-0.88**) during reproductive phase. Mean air temperatures exhibited significant negative correlation during reproductive (-0.89**) and maturity phase (-0.86**) with biomass yield. Grain yield could be predicted by morning vapour presure at reproductive phase, heliothermal unit at maturity phase and maximum air temperature at pre-flowering phase with 99.9% predictability. Two models were developed to predict grain yield at the end of vegetative phase with 55.2% and 85.2% predictability respectively. It was clear from the experiment that yield of Lathyrus was significantly influenced by agro-climatic factors and weather parameters can be effectively used to predict yield before harvest.

Materials and Methods 2.1. Experimental details Field experiment was conducted during the rabi seasons of 2016-2017 at Instructional Farm, Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya, Nadia, West Bengal, India. The farm is situated at 22°58´ N latitude, 88°31´ E longitude and at an altitude of 9.75 m above the mean sea level. The average annual rainfall is 1457 mm, 85% of which is received from June to September. Mean monthly temperature ranges from 10 oC–37 oC. The experiment was laid out in simple Randomized Complete Block design (RCBD) with nine treatments (dates of sowing) and three replications. Plot size was 4.5×3.3 m2.... 3. Results and Discussion 3.1. Variation in grain yield and above ground biomass with varied sowing dates Grain yield and biomass yield averaged over two seasons were presented in Table 1. Grain yield showed an increasing trend from 26th October sown crop to 16th November sown crop and then grain yield started to decline. The highest above ground biomass (4799.5 kg ha-1) was observed in crop sown on 16th November which was statistically at par with the biomass yields produced from the crops sown on 26th October, 2nd November, 9th November and 23rd November... Materials and Methods, Year of experiment is must added spacing between any words in symbols like (g, cm,m, l, ha, mg, °C) All tables should be present in the run of the text Table 1: Variation in grain yield (kg ha-1) and above ground biomass (kg ha-1) with varied sowing dates Dates of sowing Grain yield (kg ha-1) Above ground biomass (kg ha-1) Mean±Standard deviation C.V.

Conclusion Grain yield and dry matter yield of Lathyrus were significantly influenced by the growing season weather parameters. Yield was adversely affected by higher temperature during reproductive stages of crop growth and onwards. Final grain yield and biomass production could be successfully predicted at the end of vegetative as well as reproductive phase using the agro- climatic factors prevailing only during the vegetative and reproductive phase respectively. 5.
