Abstract

                                Experiment conducted at R.B.S. College Agricultural Research Farm Bichpuri. Agra to find out the response of Bacterial Fertilization to gram with N and P levels has shown that: (1) Gram responds favourably to inoculation and N and P Fertilization. Inoculation increased the grain and straw yield by 12.4 and 9.5 per cent. (2) inocula- tion at 80 or 120 kg P2O5/ha alone or with 15 kg N/ha as starter dose was statistically equally effective to nitrogen fertilization at 15 or 30 kg with 80 or 120 g P205 in respect of yield and N and P content of plants and (3) Inoculation alongwin 80 g PO proved to be the most economic combination which could increase 33 par cont grain yield over control, 18.6 per cent over inoculation alone and 11.8 per cent over inoculation with 40 ko P2O5.
