A field experiment was conducted during rabi seasons of 2014-15 and 2015-16 at Students Instructional Farm, Department of Agronomy, CS Azad University of Agriculture and Technology, Kanpur in alluvial tract of indo gangetic plains in central part of Uttar Pradesh to find out experiment was conducted on chickpea with three replication, keeping one factor and nine treatments of randomized block design T1: RDF (20:60:20:20 NPKS kg/ha), T2 : RDF + rhizobium culture, T3 :RDF + rhizobium culture + vermicompost @ 5.0 t/ha, T4 : RDF + rhizobium culture + vermicompost @ 3.0 t/ ha, T5 :RDF + rhizobium culture + vermicompost @ 2.0 t/ha, T6 : RDF + rhizobium culture + vermicompost @ 2.0 t/ha, + FYM @ 5.0 t/ha, T7 : RDF + rhizobium culture + vermicompost @ 2.0 t/ha + FYM @ 3.0 t/ha, T8 : RDF + rhizobium culture + vermicompost @ 2.0 t/ha + FYM @ 2.0 t/ha and T9 : RDF + rhizobium culture + FYM @ 8.0 t/ha. Checkpea variety KWR 108 was grown row spacing of 40 cm apart based on two years. The field experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2014-15, at Students Instructional Farm of CS Azad University of Agriculture and Technology, Kanpur with the objectives to find out the effect of integrated use of FYM and vermicompost with the different level of recommended dose of fertilizer on growth and yield of chickpea. With the application of T3: RDF + rhizobium culture + vermicompost @ 5.0 t/ha and harvest index was obtained with the application of T6 : RDF + rhizobium culture + vermicompost @ 2.0 t/ha + FYM @ 5.0 t/ha respectively, during the two years of experimentation.
