Abstract:
The study on “Effect of Integrated Nutrient Management on Growth and Yield of Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)” was conducted out in Agriculture Research Farm, Faculty of Agriculture Sciences and Allied Industries, Rama University, Kanpur. The chickpea variety named Digvijay which is also known as Phule G-9425-5 was used for the purpose. A total ten treatment including control was used for the purpose. The results revealed that the maximum number of plant population per meter square (31.67) was reflected in treatments T10 (50% RDF + Vermicompost (2.5 t/ha) + Rhizobium +PSB). In similar lines the maximum number of plant population (24.33) was observed for treatment T10 (50% RDF + Vermicompost (2.5 t/ha) + Rhizobium +PSB), The maximum plant height (15.90, 33.07, 41.07cm), respectively recorded highest with treatment T10 (50% RDF + Vermicompost (2.5 t/ha) + Rhizobium +PSB) at all growth stages 30, 60, 90 DAS. Maximum number of pods per plant (55) was recorded with T10 (50% RDF + vermicompost (2.5 t/ha) + Rhizobium +PSB) and The maximum grain yield 18.77 quintal per hectare was recorded with T10 (50% RDF + Vermicompost (2.5 t/ha) + Rhizobium +PSB).
