A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of varieties and micronutrient applications on yield attributes and yield of chickpea during two consecutive rabi seasons of years 2018-19 and 2019-20, respectively. The experiment was laid out in split plot design with three varieties in main plot viz. (V1) KGD-1168, (V2) Radhey and (V3) KWR-108 and seven micronutrient treatments in sub plots viz. (M1) Control, (M2) Zinc @ 0.5%, (M3) Boron @ 0.2%, (M4) Iron @ 0.1%, (M5) Zinc @ 0.5% + Boron @ 0.2%, (M6) Zinc @ 0.5% + Iron @ 0.1% and (M7) Zinc @ 0.5% + Boron @ 0.2% + Iron @ 0.1%. The results reported that the higher values of number of pods plant-1, seeds pod-1, seeds plant-1, pod weight plant-1, seed weight plant-1, 100-seed weight (g), seed yield, straw yield and biological yield were recorded with variety Radhey. However it was statistically at par with variety KWR-108 during both the experimental years. Among the micronutrients, application of M7 (Zinc @ 0.5% + Boron @ 0.2% + Iron @ 0.1%) recorded higher values of above parameters which were at par with Zinc @ 0.5% + Boron @ 0.2% and Zinc @ 0.5% + Iron @ 0.1%.
