Abstract

A field experiment was carried out to study the effect of different spacing and levels of phosphorus on growth and yield of kabuli chickpea (Ciceraeritinium Var. kabulium L) variety KAK-2 at the Crop Research Farm of SHUATS, Allahabad, during winter season in 2018. The results revealed that different Spacing (20cm, 30cm, and 40cm) and phosphorus levels (25 kg ha-1, 40 kg ha-1, 55 kg ha-1, and 70 kg ha-1) significantly affected plant height, no. of root nodules and number of
pods per plant. The maximum plant height (28.22 cm) was recorded from treatment no. 8 (55 kg P ha-1 and 30 cm spacing) at 60 DAS. Similarly, higher number of root nodules (23.62) per plant was recorded from the treatment no. 12 (40 cm spacing and 70 kg Phosphorus ha-1) at 60 DAS. The maximum number of pods per plant (24.33) was observed from the treatment no. 8 (55 kg P ha-1 and 30 cm spacing). Generally the results revealed that treatment no. 8 (55 kg P ha-1 and 30 cm spacing) gave better performance in approx all the parameters studied.
