Abstract:
The present investigation was carried out at lovely professional University, Jalandhar, India, to enhance nutritional States, quality and productivity in chickpea through Rhizobium. The field experiment was done in a randomized block design with three replications, comparing seven treatments involving different doses of Rhizobium culture, inorganic NPK + FYM, recommended fertilizer doze and absolute control. To study the various growth parameters, yield, plant water status, quality parameters, of the experiment. The study revealed that treatments involving Rhizobium inoculation along with inorganic NPK lead to significantly heights plant growth and productivity as compare with recommended dose fertilizer. Similarly maximum increase in quality parameter was recorded under Rhizobium containing treatments. Moreover Rhizobium inoculated treatments indicated an increase in yield. Thus the use of Rhizobium in production can play an important role in enhancing crop quality and productivity.
