Abstract

A field experiment was carried out on chickpea crop during Rabi season 2020-21. The experiments were conducted on heavy clay soil at Agriculture Research Farm, College of Agriculture, Banda University of Agriculture & Technology, Banda. The experimental design was randomized block design with eight integrated nutrient management treatments viz. farmer fertilizer practice (T1), 100 % RDF (T2), 100% RDF + FYM (T3), 100 % RDF + FYM + Zn (10 kg ha-1) (T4), 125 % RDF + FYM+ microbial inoculants (MI)  (T5), 100 % RDF + FYM+MI (T6), 75% RDF + FYM+MI (T7) and 50 % RDF +FYM+MI (T8), all treatments were replicated thrice. The FYM was applied @ 2 t acre-1. The experimental results revealed that application of 125% and 100 % RDF along with FYM and microbial inoculants increased significantly nodule number, nodule weight per plant and number of pods per plant, thereby increased grain yield of chickpea significantly in comparison to farmers fertilizer practice (T1), sole application of 100 % RDF (T2) and 50 % reduction of RDF along with FYM and microbial inoculants (T8).
