Abstract: A field experiment entitled “Integrated nutrient management in Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)†was carried out during rabi season of 2017-18 on calcareous clayey soil at Junagadh. The experiment was laid out comprising ten treatments in randomised block design with three replications. The experimental results revealed that significantly higher values of growth parameters viz., plant height, number of branches per plant, number and dry weight of root nodules, dry matter production and yield attribute viz., pods per plant along with higher seed yield (2228 kg/ha) and stover yield (3436 kg/ha) and net return (Rs.68141/ha) were recorded significantly higher under the treatment RDF + VAM + Rhizobium + PSB + KMB (soil application). Whereas, the highest B:C ratio (2.81) was realized with the application of 75% RDF + VAM + Rhizobium + PSB + KMB (soil application).
