Abstract

The field experiment was conducted during the year of 2023-24, 2024-25 at Agronomy research farm, ANDUAT, Ayodhya on Kabuli chickpea crop. The experiment was laid in Randomized Block Design with three replication and 12 treatment combinations viz. T1: Control, T2: 100% RDF (N: P: K @ 20:40:20 kg ha-1), T3: 75% RDP + 25% P through FYM, T4: 75% RDP + 25% P through FYM + Jeevamrit @ 500 L ha-1, T5: 75% RDP + 25% P through FYM + Jeevamrit @ 500 L ha-1 + Biofertilizer (Rhizobium & PSB), T6: 75% RDP + 25% P through Vermicompost, T7: 75% RDP + 25% P through Vermicompost + Jeevamrit @ 500 L ha-1, T8: 75% RDP + 25% P through Vermicompost + Jeevamrit @ 500 L ha-1 + Biofertilizer (Rhizobium & PSB), T9: 50% RDP + 25% P through FYM + 25% P through Vermicompost, T10: 50% RDP + 25% P through FYM + 25% P through Vermicompost + Jeevamrit @ 500 L ha-1, T11: 50% RDP + 25% P through FYM + 25% P through Vermicompost + Jeevamrit @ 500 L ha-1 +Biofertilizer (Rhizobium & PSB), T12 : 50% P through FYM + 50% P through Vermicompost + Jeevamrit @ 500 L ha-1 + Biofertilizer (Rhizobium & PSB). The result revealed that, combined application of organic and inorganic sources of nutrient substantially improves the nutrient content, uptake, and yield of Kabuli chickpea cultivated in partially reclaimed sodic soils.
