A field investigation was carried out during rainy season 2018 at research farm of RAK College of Agriculture, Sehore (M.P.), India to investigate the effect of land configuration and foliar supplementation of nutrients on the performance of urdbean. The result indicated that sowing of crop under raised bed and supplementation of NPK (18:18:18) at 2% spray at flower initiation had higher crop performance in terms of significantly higher plant height, number of branches, dry matter accumulation, number of pods/plant. seeds/pod and grain yield over the rest of the treatments.
