The results revealed that the maximum plant population (32.00 and 25.00), after 30 days after sowing, significantly highest plant height (16.27cm), after 60 days after sowing, significantly highest plant height (33.07 cm), the significantly maximum number of leaves per plant (18.7), maximum number of leaves per plant (60.3 and 141.0), maximum number of nodules (24.30), maximum number of pods per plant (33.0), highest grain yield (2799.30 kg/ha), the highest test weight of chickpea (141.6 g) were recorded for treatment T8 (75% DAP + Vermicompost (2.5 t/ha)+ FYM (5 t/ha).
