Influence of nutrient spray on growth and yield of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)

A field experiment was conducted during Rabi season 2023 at Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Sciences And Technology. To determine "Influence of Nutrient Spray on Growth and Yield of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)". The result revealed that treatment 5 (RDF 100%+ Panchagavya 3%) recorded significant, higher plant height (49.23 cm), maximum nodules/plant (46.20), maximum branches/plant (19.53), higher dry weight (18.41 g), maximum number of pod/plant (54.93), maximum number of seeds/pod (1.98), higher Seed index (244.15 g), higher Seed yield (2.67 t/ha), higher stover yield (4.82 t/ha), maximum gross return (140443.30 INR/ha), maximum net return (93353.10 INR/ha), maximum benefit cost ratio (1.98) was also recorded in treatment 5 (RDF 100%+ Panchagavya 3%) as compared to other treatments was found to be productive as well as economically feasible.
