(Lobia) Hybrids in the market and released 3 hybrids in cowpea: Bubbly, Sherly and Poorvaja.

climates, the loss of arable land, decreasing production, and post-harvest losses.
ii. With the introduction of genetic male sterility by mutation breeding in Cowpeas and a highly effective cross-
pollination mechanism, Dr Manoj S. Phalak laid the groundwork for hybrids in the crop.
iii. When compared to the traditional types, hybrids have performed very well in farmer’s fields, providing up
to 100% heterosis during the regular Kharif season and up to 200 to 250% heterosis during the off-season.
iv. The hybrid cowpea could be the trend of the future, ensuring food security in Asian and African countries
where the consumption of such legumes is significant.
Key points:
i. Cowpea is easily affordable and offers a rich source of protein and micronutrients in accordance with the
shifting dietary tastes of society.
