Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during summer 2009 on clusterbean [Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (L.) (Taub)] to study the effects of inorganic fertilizers (50, 75 and 100% RDF); FYM: (control and 10 t/ha) and biofertilizer: (control and Rhizobium) on growth, yield attributes and green pod yield. Significant improvement was recorded due to sole and integrated application of nutrients through inorganic fertilizers, FYM and biofertilizer. Significantly highest growth and yield over control were observed with Rhizobium inoculation. Application of 100% RDF along with 10 t FYM/ha with Rhizobium inoculation resulted in maximum green pod yield.
