The field experiment was carried out at Research field of Department of Soil Science, Allahabad school of Agriculture, During summer season of 2016-17. The experiment was laid out in 3×3 factorial randomized block design with 9 treatments in three replications. It was observed that the best yield attributes characters in treatment T8-@ (25:40:40 kg NPK ha-1 + 100 g Molybdenum ha-1) in respect to different days intervals i.e. 25, 50 and 75 days after sowing (DAS). Plant height was 11.30, 31.13 and 44.10 cm found to be significant at 75 DAS but non-significant at 25, 50 and 75 DAS. Number of leaves plant-1 were 9.30, 20.60 and 31.10 found to be non-significant at 50 and 75 DAS but significant at 75 DAS. Leaves length plant-1 was 7.50 and 8.83 found to be significant at 75 but non-significant at 50and 75 DAS. Highest number of pod plant-1, Number of pod seeds -1, number of nodules plant-1, fresh weight plant-1 (g), dry weight plant-1 (g), test weight (g), seed yield (t ha-1), was found in T8- @(25:40:40 kg NPK ha-1 + 100 g Molybdenum ha-1) which was 31.90, 10.67, 32.90, 21.23, 12.00, 47.03 and 7.20 was found to be significant. Highest B: C ratio (1:1.93) was recorded in T8-@ (25:40:40 kg NPK ha-1 + 100g Molybdenum ha-1). However, since these findings are based on one year experiment and therefore, further research may be conducted to substantiate it under Allahabad agro climatic conditions.
