abstract
A field experiment was conducted during Rabi 2023 at Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Prayagraj (U.P). The experiment was laid out in Randomized block design with ten treatments replicated thrice. The treatment combinations are mentioned as T₁ - Rhizobium + Phosphorus 40 kg/ha, T₂ - Rhizobium + Phosphorus 60 kg/ha, T₃ - Rhizobium + Phosphorus 80 kg/ha, T₄ - PSB + Phosphorus 40 kg/ha, T₅ - PSB + Phosphorus 60 kg/ha, T₆ - PSB + Phosphorus 80 kg/ha, T₇ - VAM + Phosphorus 40 kg/ha, T₈ - VAM + Phosphorus 60 kg/ha, T₉ - VAM + Phosphorus 80 kg/ha, T₁₀ – control (RDF) - 20:60:20 NPK kg/ha The important findings of the experiment have been summarized and concluded here under the objectives taken. The application of Rhizobium+ Phosphorous 80 kg/ha recorded significantly higher Plant height (53.3 cm), Plant dry weight (38.7 g/plant), number of nodules per plant (41.5). Significantly maximum number of pods per plant (25.33), number of seeds per pod (2.73).
