Abstract

Performance of three peanut. varieties (BPI-P9, Accession 12 and UPL-Pn2) was evaluated on their response to different time of hilling-up at the Central Experiment Station, University of the Philip-pines at Los Baños from December 1979 to April 1980.

Different time of hilling-up influences the number of above grounds pods and the number of filled pods but not the yield.

The highest number of filled pods was observed when hilling up was done b weeks after planting followed by those that were hilled-up 4 weeks after planting with 751.33 and 720.33 respectively. Accession to yielded most number of pods per plant but has the smallest seed size as indicated by the low weight of its seed.

Degree of branching and percent shelling recovery mere influenced more by tile genetic make-up of the plant than by the time of hilling-up.
