Abstract: A field study was conducted on the “Effect of different levels of nitrogen and phosphorus on physico-chemical properties of soil in maize (Zea mays L.) Cv. k-64†at the Soil Science & Agricultural Chemistry Research Farm, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj during Kharif season 2018. The soil of experimental area falls in order Inceptisol and soil texture was sandy loam. The result showed that in treatment T8 (120 Kg N ha-1 and 60 Kg P ha-1), bulk density 1.57 (Mgm-3), particle density 3.26 (Mgm-3), pore space 65.55 (%), water holding capacity 39.29 (%), pH 7.22, EC 0.16 (dSm-1), organic carbon 0.74 (%), available nitrogen 303.63 (Kg ha-1), available phosphorus 21.40 (Kg ha-1), available potassium - 221.46 (Kg ha-1) as compared to T0 (control).
