Oil quality | Girnar 4 (ICGV 15083) is a high oleic variety with more than 80% oleic acid content. It was developed through introgressing the high oleic trait from SunOleic 95R to ICGV 06420 using a marker assisted backcross breeding approach. This variety showed considerably good yield performance in multi-location trials conducted during Rainy 2015, based on which this variety was recommended by ICAR-DGR for a special high oleic trial constituted by AICRP-G. In AICRP-G trials, the performance across five locations and two years was 3305 kg/ha for pod yield and 2243 kg/ha for kernel yield. The duration of the entries is from 110-120 days. This variety belongs to the Virginia Bunch category. Girnar 4 is identified for cultivation as kharif crop in five major groundnut growing states of India, namely Gujarat, Rajasthan, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu.
