For standard chickpea (Cicer arietinum) cultivation under irrigated and rainfed conditions, the recommended spacing is $30\text{--}45\text{ cm}$ between rows and $10\text{--}15\text{ cm}$ between plants ($30\text{ cm} \times 10\text{ cm}$ for desi types, and $45\text{ cm} \times 15\text{ cm}$ for spreading and bold-seeded kabuli types). Option analysis: (A) Spacing is suited for red gram (pigeonpea). (B) Plant-to-plant distance is too dense. (C) Plant spacing is too narrow. (D) 30-45 and 10-15 is the standard agronomic recommendation.
