A field experiment was conducted at Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Prayagraj (U.P) during Rabi season of 2021 to study the “Effect of phosphorus and boron levels on growth and yield of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)”. The soil of experimental plot was sandy loam in texture, nearly neutral in soil reaction (pH 7.1). The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design, nine treatments and were replicated thrice. The treatments comprising of different levels of phosphorus and boron whose effect was observed in chickpea. The results showed that application of phosphorus @ 60 kg/ha along with boron @ 3 kg/ha recorded significantly maximum Plant height (53.11 cm), Number of nodules/plant (44.56), Plant dry weight (30.36 g/plant), Number of pods/plant (52.67), Number of seeds/pod (1.80), Test weight (225.67 g), Seed yield (2109.93 kg/ha), Stover yield (3428.07 kg/ha). Therefore, treatment with application of phosphorus @ 60 kg/ha along with boron @ 3 kg/ha was most productive and cost effective.
