Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during the rabbi season of 2011-12 and 2012-13 at student instructional farm of chandra shekhar Azad University of agriculture and technology, Kanpur with the view to find out the effect of integrated nutrient management on growth, yield and economies of chickpea. Twelve treatments were tested in R.B.D. with three replications. On the basis of experimental results, it was found that highest grain yield (26.60 Qha-1) was recorded with the treatment where R.D.F. + V.C. @ 5.0 ton/ha + Rhizobium culture + PSB was applied, followed by treatment where R.D.F. + V.C @ 3.0 ton/ha + Rhizobium culture + PSB Trichoderma was applied (26.01 qha-1) both were statistically at par. While net profit was highest in treatment where R.D.F + V.C. @ 5.0 ton/ha + Rhizobium culture + PSB was applied (Rs. 84847.11/ha) followed by treatment where R.D.F + V.C. @ 3.0 ton/ha + Rhizobium culture + PSB. + Trichoderma were applied (Rs. 84172.11/ ha) and R.D.F + V.C. @ 3.0 ton/ha + Rhizobium culture + Trichoderma were applied (82482.11/ha), which were also significantly at par. B:C ratio was also highest in treatments where R.D.F + V.C. @ 3.0 ton/ha + Rhizobium culture + PSB = Trichoderma (2.56) were applied followed by treatments where R.D.F + @ 3.0 t0on.ha V.C + Rhizobium culture + PSB were applied (2.51). The minimum grain yield (14.98 qha-1) and net profit (Rs. 40328.75/ha) was received in control plots.
