Abstract: A field experiment was conducted at the Kargua Agricultural Research Farm Institute of Agricultural Sciences, Bundelkhand University, Jhansi during Rabi 2015-16, to study the effect of integrated nutrient management on growth, yield and seed quality of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) under rainfed condition. Experimental results revealed that the treatment combination T₇ showed significantly highest plant height (87.50cm.), number of pods plant^-1 (49.30), number of seeds pod^-1 (1.57), number of seeds plant^-1 (55.60), seed yield plant^-1 (9.45 g.), seed yield (22.01 kg ha-1), 100 seed weight (19.30), germination percentage (93.50%), root length (10.97cm), shoot length (4.78cm.) and seed vigour index (1472.63), respectively over rest of the treatments combination, while treatment T₁ showed poor performance in this regard.
