Effect of FYM, PSB and chemical fertilizers on available soil NPK status and nutreint content in summer cluster bean [Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (L.) Taub.]

A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of farm yard manure, phosphate solubilizing bacteria and chemical fertilizers on summer cluster bean [Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (L.) Taub.]. It showed that there was an increased protein content, content and uptake of N, P and K in seed/stover as well as well as post harvest status of N, P and K in soil with application of FYM @ 5 t ha⁻¹, PSB @ 2.5 kg ha⁻¹and 30-60-00 NPK kg ha⁻¹.
