Type: article
Abstract: An field experiment was conducted during Kharif season 2014-15 at the Research farm of Soil Science, Allahabad School of Agriculture, laid out in factorial randomized block design, consisted twelve treatment and three replications. It was observed that growth and yield of cluster bean in treatment was T11 L2V1R1 (@ N20P40K40 NPK kg ha-1 +10 t vermicompost ha-1 +200 g Rhizobium 10 kg-1 seed was maximum. Maximum plant height 85.77 cm, no. of leaves plant-1 70.22, number of cluster plant-1 11.33, number of pod cluster-1 10.10, number of seed pod-1 9.77, length of pod 13.93, pod yield 76 qha-1 were found to be non-significant over all other treatments. Adequate plant nutrient supply holds the key for improving the food grain production and sustaining soil fertility.
