Field experiment was conducted at Soil Science Research Farm of SHUATS Prayagraj, (U.P.) on, sandy loam soil to” Influenced of Vermicompost and Biofertilizer on Physico-chemial properties of soil under hybrid Maize (Zea may L.)” during kharif season of 2022. There are nine treatment combinations were comprised in randomized block design with three replications. The results showed that the application of Vermicompost and PSB had a significant and non-significant effect on soil physico-chemical properties. The maximum bulk density (1.34 and 1.37 Mg m-3), particle density (2.56 and 2.62 Mg m-3), pH (7.23 and 7.25) and EC (0.45 and 0.41 dS m-1) was recorded in T1 (Absolute control) at 0-15 and 15-30 cm depth. Similarly, the maximum percentage pore space (47.76 and 47.65%), water holding capacity (45.27 and 45.01%), percentage organic carbon (0.54 and 0.51%), available nitrogen (230.47 and 226.49 kg ha-1), phosphorus (29.29 and 28.29 kg ha-1) and potassium (148.87 and. 140.27 kg ha-1) was recorded in T9 (VC @100% + PSB @ 100%).
