Title: Effect of integrated nutrient management on growth and yield attributes of chickpea Cicer arientinum (L.)
Abstract: Field experiment was conducted at BFIT group of institutions, Dehradun during 2020-2021 on effect of integrated nutrient management on growth and yield attributes of chickpea Cicer arientinum (L.) variety PANT G 5. Field experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replications. Nine different treatments were tested viz., T1: 100%RDF + FYM @ 12.5t ha-1, T2: 100%RDF + Rhizobium @ 2kg ha-1,T3: 100%RDF + FYM @ 12.5t ha-1+ Vermicompost@ 5t ha-1, T4: 100%RDF + FYM@ 12.5t ha-1 + Phosphobacteria@ 2kg ha-1,T5: 75% RDF + FYM@ 12.5t ha-1 + Vermicompost@ 2kg ha-1 + Rhizobium@ 2kg ha-1,T6: 100% RDF + Vermicompost@5t ha-1+Phosphobacteria@2kg ha-1,T7: 100%RDF + Vermicompost@ 5t ha-1 + Rhizobium@ 2kg ha-1,T8: 75%RDF + FYM@ 12.5t ha-1 + Vermicompost@5t ha-1+Phosphobacteria@ 2kg ha-1,T9: Absolute control (water application). Considering the overall economics of the treatments, the net returns and benefit cost ratio were found to be higher with T8:75%RDF + FYM@ 12.5t ha-1 + Vermicompost@5t ha-1+Phosphobacteria@ 2kg ha-1.Based on the experimental results, it could be concluded that, 75%RDF + FYM@ 12.5t ha-1 + Vermicompost@5t ha-1+Phosphobacteria@ 2kg ha-1 was found to be ideal for chickpea for high yield and assured income in irrigated condition.
