Abstract

Many peanut planting fields have limited water resources, therefore farmers must use water efficiently. A study aimed to obtain appropriate watering intervals and adaptive peanut cultivars at limited water conditions. The greenhouse study was conducted at Central Bengkulu Regency, Indonesia, from December 2019 to March 2020. Three varieties of peanut (Takar 2, Talam 1, and Kancil) and four watering intervals (1, 3, 6, and 9-day intervals) were arranged using a split-plot design and replicated three times. Results showed that the three varieties evaluated had similar agronomic performance (P≥0.05). The Takar 2 and Kancil had similar growth and yield components to the dry land adaptive variety Talam 1. It indicates that Takar 2 and Kancil cultivars are suitable for cultivation in a water-limited field. Watering every 6 days reduced peanut growth and insignificantly differed from watering every 9 days. Daily watering produced the highest growth and yield of peanut, irrespective of genotypes. Nevertheless, in areas with limited water availability, watering every 3 days was sufficient with yield reduction by about 25.55% of watering daily. Keywords: drought, irrigation, peanut production
